    Turbo Q for the knowledgeble

    where are you getting your ss return line. im running a mostly metal hard pipe return line, but the two metal tubes are connected by a brittle rubber type piece. i don't know how much longer it will last. i will sleep better at night having a ss return line.

    RS-R ExMag GT2

    sounds AMAZING! i don't regret getting it one bit. it looks the part and sounds even better. can't go wrong. even though i think import exhaust is still overpriced, this is one of the cheapest exhausts you can get!

    duane was telling me that our rear ends are superior to the mkiv's rear end. he also stated that the trd rear end for the mkiv is very similar to ours. so pretty much don't worry about busting the rear end

    MKIV Wheels

    i would go with the mkiv wheels. with a 225 tire, you will have trouble getting traction is minimal modifications. go with a little wider tire and you'll thank me later

    gt70r? help

    there are a lot of threads about this, first off, DONT try running 16 pounds on your stock turbo. The turbo is efficient to around 13 pounds. The stock intercooler isn't actually all that bad. It cools well, but creates excessive back pressure. there are many upgrades that you need to...

    parts that can be replaced with something lighter

    i read this somewhere and i dont' remember where...... but it went something like this....... "the easiest way to lighten your car is to strip off all the paint to the bare metal and pour salt water all over it!" haha...... i thought it was clever
