Just got my car back...PICS... RPM Stage ?? Faster!
Just got my car back last week from RPM..... Did the following mods; Not really sure what stage you would call it.
Prior Mods:
-Remus Exhaust
-K&N Air Filter
New Mods:
-K24 Turbos
-GT2 Intercoolers
-Agency Power F hose
-Agency Power BOV
-RPM Y Pipe (direct to IC's)
-RPM Turbo Inlet Pipes
-RPM Tune
-EVO MS Wastegate Kit
-Clutchmasters Stage 3 Kevlar Clutch
The car feels identical to stock, because of the 500 mile break in on the kevlar clutch I can not really give it a true run yet. As soon as I got the car back I couldnt resist and when I got on the expressway in 3rd i mashed the pedal only to feel the clutch spin and I immediatly backed off..... It now has been 175 miles later and the clutch feels totally different already, so I got on it a little today. I pulled through 1st, 2nd & 3rd with easy shifts that would drop me out of the powerband so i wasnt dumping the load back on the clutch, car pulls much harder then before at 1.2 bar all the way through.... Overall extremely happy that I stayed with somewhat of a stock platform before I go to big turbos. I will put the car on the dyno as soon as I reach the full 500 mile break in to see what #'s it's putting down, followed by a few runs at Englishtown. Here are some pics at how the engine bay looks.
Next up KW VIII's and some sway bars!!

Looks good, congrats! On the y-pipe, does it still use stock IC's? Is it metal from the IC's to the TB? What is the diameter of the new y-pipe? If you con't mind me asking, how much did the y-pipe cost??
