Have you guys felt clutch slipping after your long road trips?

So far the longest trip hasn't made the car feel any different. Actually the p lot difference is my average MPG went up

Avo, on your video in this page the exhaust tips dont shine at all.

Is it because it is very dirty ? Or there have different finish version available for your exhaust system.

Also, will you include with your kit instructions sheets step by step with somes pictures on how to install ?

Sadly, yes - haven't even had a chance to wash off the car after the 1400 mile trip back from Las Vegas/SEMA. If it wasn't for driving through a monsoon at 70+ miles an hour after crossing the Oregon/Washington border, it'd still have the bugs on the front!

Sounds awesome! Kit looks fantastic. AVO will eventually be getting my money

Come on give that car a little love and wash it. After all, he deserve it !

On your car, do you have the Avo blow off valve option ?

I would like to hear how your BOV sounds like.

I can get e85 locally, also 100 octane at the same station however I would like to be able to go to track days or club meets and know I can just stop and get fuel.

I took about 200 pics for the install manual when installing the kit, and am writing up the instructions for the next week or two. It will be a very comprehensive installation guide.

How much does the full exhaust weigh? And I notice on your website there is an overripe but no downpipe? Is the downpipe replaced in the turbo kit?

The downpipe comes with their kit.

The downpipe is the part that make the union between the turbo and the exhaust.

I think the crossover pipe is the section that connect to the downpipe and goes toward the main cat.

Their Cat back Exhaust kit goes from the back of the car to the main cat.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

With the turbo kit and the catback installed, you still retain a stock cat and front pipe on the car. Im assuming with an aftermarket airbox and getting a large uncatted front pipe to match the exhaust, you could unlock some more power.

No, the downpipe does not come with the kit. The header comes with the kit. That pipe you refer to as "downpipe" (which is called the overpipe in the diagram below) is just the connection between the turbo and the stock overpipe. After the overpipe is where you would find the downpippe (frontpipe according to the diagram below) with the second Cat in the car.



The header, turbine and connecting pipe will bolt on to your stock (or aftermarket in the same location as the stock one) overpipe.

Lastly, the Catback exhaust only replaces the muffler and the midpipe.

I dont think so. The terms change when dealing with the stock exhaust system and a turbo system. This kits comes with the manifold that connects to the turbo that connects to the downpipe which then connects to the factory frontpipe. At the end of the front pipe the catback connects. The only thing left stock about the exhaust after this kit and a catback is the frontpipe.
