I will help too. These headers will add about 15 hp to your car. Really.

That's a good enough reason to buy them. I love my aftermarket headers and I can feel the difference in power.

Well she got over the initial wanting to kill me. Gary, probably the wrong place for this but, I'm going to do methanol injection on the kit. Should be interesting.

OHHHH...I wish I was brave enough to try that.


I believe we should start a modifiers support group, I am surfing the web looking for gauges to install next to my boost gauge and trying to find trim pieces for the interior. Like I always say I dont gamble, get drunk, or cheat on my wife, but I do modify my Porsche.

Do a dyno before and after I would love to see what gains you get out of that.
Are you still planning on intercooling it? If so I can send you pictures of my intercooler.

Have a great night
Gary

I have seen the intercooler from turbowerx.. It is very impressive. I am going to just keep with the methanol for now. I think these are the guys I might use. I have used there kit on an evo and made 420whp on a stock turbo. I might even up the pulley size to a 7lb pulley. I still have to get my ecu out to someone. I am talking with imagine now and they might be able to hook me up a bit.

OH as for my boost gauge. I will have to get some photos up tomorrow. It is on the passanger side in the old port for the air temp sensor. The spot where it looks like you would put the ignition on a rhd car.
