Great review ! Especially the video is sick!

[Nack54]

This review was awesome. The sound your car produces is intoxicating. Every time I watch the video, I grin from ear to ear. It's amazing how your car is able to be all that power down. :

[fluidkaos]

Nice work on the review! Now I can't wait to upgrade myself. I just keep watching to the video over and over. It's like an eargasm listening to the smooth roar of a straight-six with a near-equal-length header.

[F80M]

Awesome review as usual!

Do you have picture of how the air filter and intake pipe was mounted to turbo?

Thanks for great works and time you put into this man!

The in car vids were great! I just meant it would be cool to have a couple of flyby videos to augment them. Thats all.

Amazing review makes me want to do this sooooo bad! Lol

[ihc95]

Wow amazing reveiw! I remember you had an issue with your final drive and it being shorter than you wanted. Did you just keep the shorter rear end or get the one you originally wanted?

Where are you located? I can do the necessary parts modifications, you just need a shop that knows how to press bushings out and back in. No urethane garbage, just OEM Lemforder joints everywhere.

Great review, I have been looking forward to this for a while now. I'm so jealous of your single turbo kit. I have been trying to find a good reason and way to explain to the wife that I need a single turbo in my car.

Yup, that sound would be addicting. I'd have my foot in it all day long just to hear the spool & blow-off noises!

p.s what size are those filters on your Forge DV? I bought mine from k&n but filters are too big, almost looks like DCI

creaminz, thank you! The filters that are on the Forge DVs came from Shiv. I am not sure of the exact size to be honest.

enrita, thank you! How is your car running? Were you ever able to get everything dialed in?

Nack54, I am partial to the sound too. I just love the growl the exhaust makes when the car is pulling! I think the suspension and tire upgrades really helped a lot to get this power down the ground.

fluidkaos, I appreciate that! When are you planning on going single? I am glad the video is helping others too see and feel the power this car makes.

91Octane, thank you! I don't have pictures of the intake on the turbo because it is very difficult to find a way to take that picture. It is mounted head onto the turbo inlet though.

ihc85, I attempted to contact VAC and they didn't respond. I have to say I am highly disappointed they would send me the incorrect final drive then make no attempt to fix the problem. At this point, I cannot recommend VAC to anyone because this was a quite frankly a huge mistake on their part.

With that said, I think my car is probably faster on the street with the 3.46 then it would be on the 3.08. I have no data to back that up though.

I have no shop to do the pressing unfortunately. Is there any way that we can get a better option than the RE/HP Autowerk toe arms that everyone can do?

aznboi319, just tell her it will give you more time with her since you can get home faster!

Starting 3.7k in 2nd gear you are full spool by 6,000rpm...

isnt boost being ramped up on this tune throughout the rpm range? are you just perceiving that as lag on his datalogs?

Saving up my pennies for now. Planning on pulling the trigger next summer; the time between now and then can't pass by fast enough.

The rubber bushings just need a 1.75" piece of roll cage tubing to punch out and punch the new ones in with a hammer. I could build a whole set of new arms (6 of 10 need joints replaced), and 4 points on the car (2 in the subframe and 1 in each upright/spindle), but that would get pretty pricey. This would eliminate the need for rear toe arms with cheap rod ends. The good NHBB rod ends are about $110 each - ouch!

Where are you located?
