Don't want to continue going off topic but what is wrong with the Specialty Z clutch? Isn't this clutch been use by quite a few guys that have the Fast Intentions TT kit with no issues or did i miss something?

Good luck if you have a problem. They'll blame it on your installer. My build thread has the whole story. Because I went with specialty z I ended up spending an extra $1500 and I was without my car for an extra three weeks. Go with z1 or Zspeed.

Nothing is wrong with the flywheel...he got one that's was warped and it took awhile for them to figure out what was wrong with it. It was replaced by the manufacture. I have the same flywheel of warped one he got, SZ Street Max, with 13K miles FI on mine with no issues. I have not heard of any other problems with SpecialtyZ's flywheel systems. They are rock solid and there a number of people running the 6 puck at over 550 ft/lbs/tq.

Specialty z didn't replace anything. We had to go around them to RPS, the actual maker of the clutch. He overnights a new disk no questions asked, which he wouldn't have done if it was installer error. At that point specialty z blamed it all on my installer and withdrew their offer to help out with labor costs even though it was a defective product. They were very helpful until it came out that the disk was defective.

"We had to go around them to RPS, the actual maker of the clutch."
Yup, I thought that is what I said but in different words. The only point I am speaking to is the quality of the clutch and flywheel system. What happened between you and SZ is between you two. I have no dog in that fight! Now let's give BP fans back their thread....sorry for the diversion!

I don't think I have time to really built a complete custom exhaust. I guess I could build one, and then outsource the manufacturing of it. Maybe down the road..but it is a tough market, as there is already a lot of options for customers. Most already have something after market already. Quote:
Sorry, I do not have up to date electronic instructions. You can have a look at the V 2.0 build thread and it will give you a very good idea of the plumbing. As for the rest, you can have a look at the original V 1.0 version for a good idea on the rest. Sorry, I forgot..a lot of PM's going through. I just sent you a quote on the upgrade.

Well, it is almost time to start shipping these kits. I am in Atlanta this week for work, but before leaving I did manage to get a lot of work done. Just need to finish up the recirc tubes...about a days worth of work. If all goes well and as planed, the first kits should be going out the first week of February.
