This might sound dumb but... Is there a real noticeable difference in power over stock?

I have an EX but I am informed LX has a lower compression so obviously running a better boost, or a safer turbo, larger spray of N2O.....
U have an APEXi b00st meter? I hear it helps a lot. My friend with a stock turbo WRX runs 14lbs safely. Its a good investment....

congrats, I want to be running somewhere around 12-15 psi, but im planning on changing the entire bottom end. Looks a lot better than the other guy who got his done with the ugly heat wrap wrapped all over, but then again, who cares what it looks like if it performs.

That looks very nice. Where does the piping for the intercooler route? Did you lose the A/C? What kind of BOV does that have? Turbonetics wastegate, right? Looks clean. Very nice.

well the intercooler pipping was routed one way, since one side is block. My A/C is still there, works perfectly....my BOV sounds sweet,...it's a HKS BOV

Hey moocow, good job. Maybe I can meet up with you one day and see this in person.

BTW, were those pics taken over the weekend at Nisei? I had a couple of friends who went and who showed as well. A few from Team Hybrid and Voltes (spelling)

At the end of the year, I will have $6500 to blow off (get it? :laugh[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]...Anyway...How long did the whole process take? is it street legal? Were any extra parts needed? Would Turbo Performance make this a kit? I'm really, really considering this...Let me know, bro.

ok,..I'm not sure if Turbo Performance will have a kit out for the market yet, you could ask them. It was pretty hard making this kit, took about 2 month of trial and error. But the results are awsome... around $4000.00 - $4500.00 retail but not polished like mine. That's extra $$$... the BOV they use are Blitz, I had my own (which was the HKS), Intercooler is Spearco air to air, or you could go liquid to air too like "hitekmike". I'm going to get dyno soon, and tune my AEM EMS Unit. I'll tell you the result. Oh and don't forget to buy "HONDA TUNING MAGAZINE" on Oct. I'm featured in it!!!
