yes, bolts up no issue, the issue was some minor fudging of the down pipe to the turbo and the mid pipe hit the cross member/pan, that was an easy fix. one of the trubo pipe holes was off a bit...the main thing is if you buy it, and i'm not really promoting it, DO NOT USE THE SUPPLIED GASKET! it was junk and blew out after about 2k miles. the main reason i went with the ebay pipes is because i could keep my rb cat back...i don't regret buying it, the sound is just want i was looking for......but i can't endorse it.

Nice numbers Mahk.........

thanks marlon, i was pleased...next break 200!

 

[KZL_99ES]

my dyno @ mid oh

 

[bazooka joe]

looking to get up to 200...i think i'll turn the mbc up a click or two..... looks like i have some fuel to spare!

 

[THE Phen]

You can do 10-12 psi just fine. I know people that have run up to 19 psi on stock internals and stock ECU, but after 12 psi, the turbo doesn't really do much because it's out of its efficiency range.

kansei's MSM was over 200 wheel with similar mods.

 

[bazooka joe]

ya, to be honest i was chicken befor the dyno to turn it up...now that i know i have good afr #'s i'm going to turn it up...just a bit. i should have done it for the second run!!!!!

 

[THE Phen]

Here's the depressing part. The parts installed on his car came to like... $1500 maybe. The kit installed on mine is close to $5000, and COULD give me 212 at the wheels.

i've got a washer bottle relocation kit, going to try and get this installed this weekend in between house renovation work. i removed the plastic bottle last yr, thought i really don't need it, it's a summa cah, but during the early spring and fall, it would be nice to wash off some of the lingering "stuff" that ends up sticking to the glass. anyway, got this bottle a long and thin one that actually goes in the empty cowl area below the drivers side wind screen ( i like the brits). this way the engine bay stays available for additional goodies, it's cleaned up of plastic and i get my washer back! i'll post up some pics, if i get it done!
ah heck, here's the link to the relocation kit http://revlimiter.net/blog/2011/02/nopro-washer-bottle/​

Yeah. So... if I keep the car, I have a few gears turning in my head as to what I want to do.
