    Well, here's part one of my tip vs 5 speed driveline loss series. Part 2 will be after the 5 speed swap. The runs were done at about 19 PSI on the stock SMIC (which by runs 4 and 7 was completely heat soaked). So with a proper FMIC and another 2-3 PSI I imagine that there is some more power to...

    So I noticed that my car is feeling a little laggy lately. I tried upping the EBC duty cycle to 80% up from 75% to see what would happen. Absolutely no change, in fact there's no change from 65% DC to 85% DC. It just peaks at 19-20 PSI. So I pressure tested the system at 20 PSI, and there were...

I've got a new oil supply line being made up and it looks like I can re-use the oil return line (I hope) The coolant lines are a bit of a head scratcher though. I checked ATP's PDF install, and in their infinite wisdom they installed an...

    Well its time for me to replace my ko3 since its running out of steam, the turbo has about 210k on it. So i got a good deal on a gt2x turbo along with bosch 440cc injectors, adj fpr and a 3" testpipe and downpipe. I also have an Apr inlet pipe which should do the job. For the tuning im most...
