Fitment issue on MR?

Hey quick question? Do all the parts from the VIII fit on the MR? Like all the things in my sig? Only thing I really questioned was the clutch. Wasn't sure if it was different due to it being a 6 speed.

Also would I be able to take my UTEC map and put it on the MR? I know a tune is different on every car but would it be pretty close that it may only be off by a little bit? It was tuned for 11.5 across the board so don't have to worry about running to rich or lean if it was off a little.

I wouldn't recommend you to just throw in the Utec in the MR without fine tuning it. The MR has differences that you would need to offset for.

What about the clutch fitment? And why? Still debating. One near me wants 34,500 but only wanna give me 21. i owe 10 but interest is still like a 7.5 cause I am only 19.

And also cause for the second time now I broke my TC. The mods, Nothing too big there. Installed them all except clutch head studs and rod bolts. Could do the clutch at my roommates shop but had Pruven do it. Same as the turbo cause already installed a previous turbo and was too tired.

Just looking at some options.

The 3" DP might not fit. I know the Helix doesn't fit.

I don't think the clutch will fit, I ordered a clutch for a friends EVO8 from japan and they asked if it was for a 5-speed or 6-speed. It is the clutch disk that was different if I remember correctly.

Anyone else got some more info on this? I know I will take some loss switching out but if it is a lot of the things it will not be worth it.

I just installed the RS*R stainless steel downpipe on my MR. No contact between any parts. I have exactly 2-3 mm of clearance between downpipe and transmission.
