Default calling all TREADSTONE owners**

what's up guys, i plan on getting the treadstone kit pretty soon but i have a few questions first. i was wondering what you guys who have the kit already are modded with besides the turbo. i'm building a list of things i'm going to need to aid in the boost. did you guys opt for a piggyback system or did you just use the tuning system it came with? did you change your clutch? what gauges are you running? just general stuff like that. i only plan on running around 9 psi. i'd like to not run a piggyback if i don't have to. but i want your feed back on the kit and performance and what mods you would recomend to add. thanks in advance

Hey bro,

I'm running the Treadstone set up. Get the Emanage and the Dezod PnP harness for safety's sake. At 9psi, I would without a doubt run a piggy back set up. Get the AEM Wideband 02 gauge for monitoring AFR's. Get a descent boost gauge, I opted for the Defi Blue Racer Boost gauge. I'd say upgrade yoru clutch from the get go cause at 9 psi, you'll be around 280whp i'd imagine. And for a place to do installs, call STi Motorsports and ask for Robby. Tell him Jared sent you. They don't have a dyno, but they do good work.

id get the clutchmasters stage 3 or 4 kevlar cause once you start crankin up the boost its not gonna hold those tq levels for long especially if it gets glazed the slightest bit then your stuck doing what travis(rythmnsmoke) had to do...changing out your clutch 4 times lol
