And it will until you start to put down 320 ft/lbs. That's around the time that it'll say "no mas".

If you're gonna run pump gas it'll be fine. If you're gonna run the corn juice you may want to bump it up to stage 2.

Let's just say that @mkivsoopra is putting down more than twice my power on the same clutch. He's running E85 and lots more boost.

He's on E85... north of 300 ft-lbs

haha.. what they said. It was barely holding on at 13 psi with E50. At E75, there was no hope.

Sounds awesome, nice and deep tone! I thought the turbo would muffle the sound more, but not as much as I'd expected!

Looks like a Stage 1 can't handle the POWAH! Thank you for the post Nice ride.

With that said, I think I am dead set on this kit.

Time to start a fund.

I would say this is the best sounding car I have owned. It's tame for daily driving but the boxer uel burble is always there.

Nothing like a little competition on a hot day. Temperatures were definitely in the 100 range. Short footage of my recent track event at Grange Motor Circuit, enjoy!

All of the custom components for our water/methanol injection system are done. All of the custom mounting brackets for our oil cooler system are also complete.

Sorry to be a little off topic, but the white car sounds like it has some serious compressor surge...

Greedy kit doesn't include a BOV.

When should we expect the headers and oil coolers to ship out? When installing the headers is it safe to drive it on the previous tune or do we have to retune the car?

You're not the only one dealing with the heat

I'm waiting patiently for both as well. We just have to sit tight. I'm not sure who tuned your car, but I would say that as far as safety is concerned it should be OK to use your existing tune with the new header. However I would also say a new tune should be obtained to take advantage of the improved exhaust flow and block out the CEL if it happens. I will throw mine on as soon as it arrives using my existing tune for a short period while I obtain a new tune.
