Performance Part Review
RRM AEM SRI and RRM Catback
Both great products, i installed the intake before the exhaust came in and i felt like it was chuggin through gas faster than a hummer with the munchies...but once I added the exhaust, the two worked great together. Both added mean sounds, and I could clearly hear the SRI kick in at 3.5k rpm or so
Only problem was having to get the MAF off of the stock intake and that was a bit of a bust, stipped both screws and had to dremel them out
RRM AEM SRI 9/10
RRM Magnaflow Catback 9/10

I bought a Fujita CAI back in 06' when I first got my Ralli. I love it and it sounds great. I have a couple requests for anyone who has the Lower Tie Bar or the Anti-Sway Bar from RRM. Just basic info like install complications (if any) and how much you like em' I only saw the 1 post a while back for the Tie Bar. Thanks
RRM PIGGY BACK
Today I installed the PG and all I can say is awesome! The install is easy (if you think it through with there picture). Bang for buck is 9/10 for sure. The best mod from RRM I have done yet. I did alot of reading up on this product before i bought it to see what i was getting in too. I never had any idle issues like other have had. Follow the detailed instructions and you will not be dissapointed. I will post another review in a few days for an update on how everything is going so far.
P.S YOU NEED THIS!

Piggyback et al
I have a number of reviews to complete. Pretty much my whole sig. BTW if anyone wants to follow a cheap modification plan. I have written down my sig in order of install.
SS Clutchline.
It ok. I have installed a new flywheel or clutch yet but it did firm up my clutch pedal. 1 to 10 it receives a 7.5. It costs nothing and eventually you will be glad you purchased it.
$70 Muffler
Dont do it. The exhaust leak drives me crazy. It seemed to rust but emory(spelling?) cloth took care of that. 2.5 out of 10. Hurt performance but does sound nice at fast speeds.
PPI Intake Manifold
For $65 bux plus a week of a loaner car you can have a ported manifold. All in all its nice. Make sure you clean it well before install. Lots of carbon build up. Improves gas mileage. Intake sound is definately more prominent. The power is not that noticeable. Slightly quicker. 7.5 out of 10. 7.5 to me is good but not car changing. Worth the money.
RRM Rear Strut Bar and H-Brace
I'm doing a review together seeing as they went on right away. On the first drive i found a nice road with sweeping bends. I was finding that in some situations the car oversteer'd. I was awesome. I had to push it but it worked well. A lot less body roll too. I attribute that more towards the strut bar.
The Bad--- The noise. It sounds like something is loose on the H-brace. I've jacked it up twice to make sure it wasn't falling off. I have found that the downpipe heatshield sits right above it. I'm taking it off until i have a track day. It bolts up in 5-10 minutes. Easy just need to buy 2 bolts initially. Good part. Just not on a daily driver.
The strut bar. Easyish install actually with my subs fit better now. I dont like the single bar setup but it works. Together a 6/10 without drawbacks 8/10
RRM Piggyback ECU
Holy S$%#. The torque is immense. Gas mileage non existant. I just put it on so later review to come. I think i need a tune yet because premivec seems to suffer. Although for a used unit a great tune. Install was scary. All is well though. BTW ralliartize thanks for the wire connecter/splicers. I didnt solder one thing minus broken wires on the actual unit. 9/10 minus one for install but its the only way.
1/4 miles hopefully in the near future

Works EVO Short Shifter & blox 490 Shift Knob
I was very excited when I got home and saw my shiny new shifter in the mail. The install was pretty straightforward but you have to make sure you don't lose any of the washers that belongs to your shifter mechanism. It came with a new retainer cap and pivot ball caps. That made installation even a breeze.
After install it pretty much negated all notchiness I had before which brought a big grin to my face. The blox 490 shift knob is about 18 ounces...which means it's a very heavy/manly shift knob. I give both mods 20/10. Why? Because you get instant feedback from them and it feels awesome!

hey ralliartize where did you get it. Im looking to smooth up my shifting. My next project is a mivec light and something with my exhaust. It feels like i have too much back pressure. Anyways you can post where you found the shifter here: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/04...rt-finder.html.
