RRM Turbo Update. about 25k miles later

for those of you that don't know me. i was the first person other than the guys at rrm to get a turboed ra in the states. that was a year and half ago or so. since then ive beaten the crap of the car and turbo and i must say that 25k miles later im still very impressed and very happy with the product. ive raced countless times and beaten up on many many cars. everything still feels like new and it still kicks ***. i dont doubt that it will continue to kick more *** for more miles and races to come. if ur thinking about getting the rrm setup id mos def recommend it. worth every dollar! just in case you've never seen my ride heres the link to my cardomain. hope u like it.

ive been doing about 8 psi. the daily driving is pretty much identical to stock, except of course when u give it some gas the **** spools up at 3k rpm. u feel it suck u in the seat. i changed to the rrm clutch. i got motor mounts and pulley too.
