Mods list, let me know what you think

Okay I have been thinking it over what I want to do on my car, and I think I also called every vendor a few times. :-) and here is the list that I came up with

Buschur Turbo back with high flow cat
Xede Computer with flash when it comes out
264 / 272 cams
cam gears
Buschur intake
Buschur MAS pipe
Buschur Mini Battery
Buschur FMIC
Exedy twin clutch

Total power 350WHP?

The ONLY thing I am not 100% on is the computer. I like the xede but it does not play well with a intake from what I read, but I like all the maps that I can change when I want. I also like the different maps for different kind of gas, such as 100 oct for a track day. If you can think of doing something better PLEASE let me know. I am not a pro with this car and it's my 1st 4 banger turbo.

Thanks!

You don't really need a twin disc clutch if you're only going to be making 350 HP. The Exedy single disc clutch can hold up to 400 HP and is designed for lightly modified cars (I consider your list a light modifications list). Plus, it's more streetable than a twin disc clutch. Unless you plan on a bigger turbo or something of that nature in the future, then a single disc clutch is enough.

I am going with the 264 / 272 because that is what shiv is making a map for, down the road I may change it when I go AEM and bigger turbo but right now I am going to stick with this I think.

I will be doing a bigger turbo down the road. Also I don't want to pay the $700 labor 2 times.

Please note: You CAN run an intake with the XEDE. The only thing I don't recommend is relying on the baseline maps (which are posted on the website) when running an intake.

The MAF disturbances that aftermarket intakes have shown to induce will require custom tuning (on the dyno preferably) to compensate for. It's really easy to do and certainly worth doing if you must have an intake.

hmm, anyway I could goto a dyno and data log it and send it to you? I will pay you for your time. Also do you see any power gains with a intake? And if I have to I could keep it stock.

actually a twin disk setup will be more streetable... it will allow for more slipping of the clutch, whereas a single like the Cusco / Exedy will not...

someone correct me if i'm wrong...

I though the name would be funny, never did see the movie or knew anything about the evo till I drove one.

Actually, a twin disc will be harder to slip than a single disc. I actually had the liberty of test driving a car equipped with a twin disc (HKS) and compared to the Exedy single disc (which I have), you can really tell the difference just by pedal effort alone. The single disc just seems easier to drive on the street.

"These types of clutches are like on and off switches; although the clutch can hold a lot of torque, they don't work too well for the street." - Robert Choo, Senior Techinical Editor, Turbo Magazine, on twin disc and triple disc setups
