I think he meant, get the meth kit, but leave the boost at its current level. It will only add extra insurance against detonation, especially on a hot humid day.

Nice car. I love the wheels, and the stock look. I'm not sure about the solid CF spoiler, but at least it is stock style. I definitely don't like the CF gas lid - but great work so far. Install is extra clean.

Yeah, I pm'd him, and that is what he meant. However, if I went throught the trouble of installing a meth kit, I'd be too tempted to at least turn up the boost a little!

Meth alone would really need the new map to benefit most. Even at lower boost.

I wish my damn check would hurry up and get here so I can buy my kit. :-/

What kind of exhaust are you using or what kind would RRM recommend to use with the turbo kit?

Well, the turbo will replace your header and downpipe. So, all you have left really is from the axle back. I personally have the RRM Axleback (Magnaflow) and it sounds great!!! Keep in mind too that I added a Magnaflow resonator just before my muffler because I was trying to quiet it down before I went turbo. After turbo, this baby just purrs, barely louder then stock.

I'll try this weekend. I just got a new digi camera that does decent movie/sound clips.

I took Product Director of another car company (can't say who) for a ride in our Ralliart. He was blown away. He is bringing someone over Tuesday just to go for a ride in it too. It is deceivingly fast.

I do not think we are leaving but we have been recognized by an OE other than Mitsu for what we can do to for them. They like like how we have completed projects for Mitsu and the way we have taken non turbo platforms and created turbo, performance cars cable of holding their own against cars considered superior.
