Damn it! The article is not on their website and can not find the magazine anywhere.

Oh well... I guess that I will wait. Kinda interested on the brake upgrade that the OP mentioned.

Saw that and sent them an email about the brake pads. That is going to be one of the first upgrades I am going to do along with some springs, UICP and IC.

Thanks for the link!

I'm hoping to get their ECU so the car will actually make some great power, we still have not got it to do the programming on it for them.

Thanks for the interest in the magazine and our parts.

1.7 seconds behind a stock MR... that's good to me. But it's still not an Evo.

I'd love to see the Ralliart become a superb performer just so Mr. Evo could be proud of its little brother, just like STI should be of the Rex, a Rex becomes something serious when properly modded.

Waiting for take 2; I'ma go to Buschur website and check out that exhaust... add it to my wish list!

I didn't realize that the car wasn't properly tuned. After reading back over the article, it just says that Buschur mail-in flashes are available, not that the car was tuned. How much more hp could be squeezed out of the car with the current power mods?

Yup, I was really surprised they wasted money on an electronic boost controller when your flash would raise boost levels to an appropriate level! Also, them already having raised the boost will down play the HP increase from your flash... sort of pissed me off seeing them do that.

so they're still running rich as %*$& right? while still increasing boost to 22.x psi?

The big brake kit is nice though, and the wheel package as well!
I'm wondering if Buschur's dual-tip muffler can be ordered ti'd?
