Our cars DO make the STI's sound with a UEL header/manifold (check my signature's first post

)

Hey guys,

Just wanted to share some data from our experience with the FullBlown Motorsports turbo kit.

We installed the unit late November and since have been absolutely bagging on the car. We've done lapping days, autocross, ice racing and plenty more. We solved our heating issue after the 1st track test and haven't had an issue since. Motor is performing great!

Actually it is 5:34am this morning and I'm headed to the track right now to do some laps!

I think we'll be putting up video from the day, I'll throw it up here when we post!

Subscribing so I can see what it takes to blow this thing up.

Or watch a bunch of people freak out about something that has nothing to do with this thread.

Either way...

Any numbers on 93 AKI yet?

Any more details on the heating issue, as well as, how it was resolved?

Just curious.

I'm curious to see how long that'll last...

BTW, nice job with this kit! I cannot wait until I turbo my FR-S.

Does that sound work with EL headers too?

EL headers do not produce that sound.
