I'll trust Thumper to be in the loop, but we'll see what eventually makes it to market. I'm hoping for a nice oem fit, like the JCW factory turbo so I can retain my selection of downpipes & JCW inlet pipe (with the larger rubber)...

You cant beat free

AEM works good on a direct injection diesel and 1500 hp Vipers it should work on a direct injection 1.6 gas motor

I do like the aquamist kit that jeff sells and may pull the trigger once Santa is back at the North Pole.

Amen sir....gotta love the free stuff!

And yes, I'm sure it will work...they're just hard to tune, especially with how erratic boost is on our car.

Keep us updated on your numbers though, I'm sure you're car is gonna put down some great numbers!

Next week a year ago .

But still, the thread is a bit off topic from RMW's tune progress versus getting parts installed from OS Giken :-P.

Will have a Riss Racing 2.5 inch exhaust and resonater with only 200 miles for sale installed for just $300.00 @ the Tune .

Ok Exhaust for $700 plus install (what I paid)

Black Friday sale at riss without resonater for 399 plus shipping

Great Exhaust for $300 and installed while you wait at tune party.

center brace must be shimmed or removed for install of this downpipe back system,comes with extra tips and has Hi TEMP coating on rear muffler.
