:tiphat:

thx Mitco, hard to read through 66 pages!

Still have 3 kits that are unspoken for.

Just had to buy a DD truck for the winter, otherwise you'd only have 2 left :tiphat:

Next summer :tup:

Does the price include the FI exhaust? Sorry. It's late. And I'm forgetful.

Sorry but it does not. If it did, I would be working for free.

Just finished reading thru all 60+ pages. Very nice work, Sasha! I've been researching all of the options out there, and this looks by far like the best choice. My only hesitations are due to the removal of the crash bar, and b/c I'd kind of like to finish out my drive train warranty before installing a turbo (at 31K miles now). Part of me wants to go ahead and pull the trigger though...

I have another local instal here in three weeks. I will be looking at the crash bar stuff. I am confident that it can stay in place with this FMIC. The results will be reported here when this is looked at.

You also have a great shop in Lousville to take the car to for tuning. I am sure you have heard of Dynosty.

Not sure how the crash bar thing got blown up so much, but I am sure you can talk to any of the GTM TT guys or myself and we would all tell you we feel just as safe now as we did before with much more power to the rear wheels.

Yeah, the way I see it, if I'm In a situation where I need the crash bar... having that crash bar isn't going to help me a whole lot, if you know what I mean.

The crash bar isn't going to do anything if you hit someone or someone hits you at a significant rate of speed. If i remember right it is used for "Low Impact" crashes. ie. 5mph :)

BTW...the first kit from the jigs is coming to together nicely:

A bit closer look at the clearances between the pipes and the jig (top righ, those two are not tacked in yet):

Actually, that was the next thing that I was going to look into. That is great to hear! I have not heard of them actually. Tuning will be something new to me. Have you worked with any of the guys there at all?

And great to hear that you will be looking into a way to keep the crash bar. I've got the cash to do this, but this may be a deciding factor for me. Thanks for the follow up, Sasha!

Yes I deal with these guys on a regular basis. This is where the turbos, waste gates and BOV's come from for these kits. These guys are great to deal with...give them a call, ask for Dustin on Hal. They are familliar with my work, and Hal (the tuner, also head rep for Haltech U.S.A) has one of these twin scroll kits on his own car. They also build engines, and hold records at the drag strip with the VQ's.

Will keep you posted on the crash bar stuff.

How would one go about "speaking for" a kit? :tup:

Very interested...
