Finally ready for a solid tune and dyno. My next update will be a few weeks out, but it will be a good one :-)

I'm not sure if you have really gotten a chance to test it yet but how do you like the exedy clutch? I am assuming you have the stage 2. I am having a hard time deciding on which clutch to use when I get tuned on e85 with my FBM kit. I just have a hard time justifying the cost of an FX300 and want to explore my options.

Short update. I've decided I will be installing a header and ditching the stock manifold. Once PTuning releases their header I'll be jumping in on that. Also planning on getting their oil cooler system. For now, I've installed a new radiator, vacuum manifold and boost gauge. Still working on some additional items which I'll post more on later. Lastly, I will post some dyno results on the second week of April.

I test drove RS*R's Scion FRS and I was pleased with their Sports-i coilover suspension setup. So I placed the order :-) Thanks RSRusa for the test drive!
This week I installed new radiator and heater hoses (HPS) to go along with the new radiator. I also threw on Whiteline rear endlinks while I had the car up. HPS radiator and heater hoses. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Whiteline rear endlinks. ![]() ![]() |

Yes. Waiting on PTuning to release theirs. Should be relatively soon - month or two out.
