But hey, got to make it feel like home right...

F - THAT!!! thats a hydra right there. i guess im just too hell bent on modding my car. i think i could go without tv, or video games for a year if it meant having a top of the line stand alone. i try to spend as much of my post bill paying money on my car, as possible. which is why i have two very nice mods on there way at this very moment...


but back on topic. any chance of a 3" down pipe?

^^Trust me, I needed the home setup first.... I am aware of one of your up coming mods.

But yeah, back on topic.

So, has it come to a conclusion to do a Street kit?

Ya just do the street kit. Now with the base map how reliable and trustworthy will it be? How necessary will a tune be after installation?

it wont be necessary.. its a TRUE bolt on and GO kit. but. when u have the money go get a real tune esp if u had some things like full exhaust and stuff to get the most power out of it u can.

Give it time. They will not rush to make a product and they're still in the planing phase right now. The pictures in the first post represent the race setup, they said they plan on releasing that exact setup. The manifold will be the same, because they want people to have the option to simply upgrade to the race kit in the future.

I talked to MrC about it this weekend and he's still not certain about chargepipe routing. I asked him about fog lights, and he said he might try to work something out, where it's not hanging low like the TT kits, and it still has fog light (VRD/APT) functionality.

That would be amazing. I was just wondering if we would have to cut the top radiator support, like they did in their car, for routing the pipes. And do you know how they did at the race?

I'd be interested in street if I get money and don't trade the tc for an MS3.

You would be sorry if you did that. Turbo tC > MS3.
