Thumbs up Forced Performance Rocks!!!!

Got my car back from FP last week with the long awaited 2.3l transformation. I have been driving it easy for the first 500 miles and on purpose FP "low tuned" the car (16psi max for brake in period) and I can already tell you, the car is freaky!

For now I have opt for the EVO6.5 RS T.M.E turbo as I plan to RR the car.

However tomorrow thinks will change and my car will be tuned to its full potential Thanks to FP and AEM!!!!!!!!!

Stay tune! I will post pics and more info tomorrow

I will!

As of now I am getting the car ready for weekend fun against a Porsche TT, GT3, E46M3 race prep, Lotus Elise and... A Ferrari Strodali... Should be fun! RR of course.

Ferrari Strodali sounds like a new pasta dish? I believe its a Ferrari Challenge Stradale.

Interesting setup! I am wondering if the TME turbo will run out of steam as you reach redline. One thing for sure is that you will be at fool boost by 2400 RPM...

Make sure you tighten all the bolts again after break-in, especially before you track it.

Okay!

Just got off the phone with FP and they are going to install their new White Rabbit Turbo on the car. At this point I only know this: Spool like the TME but keeps on going in the high RPM...

I am happy
