Baby's First Mods (aw how cute!)

Alright, since my stock clutch took a dump on my at 7500 miles (hard launches) I purchased the following:

ACT Stage 1 Street/Comp Clutch Kit

Clutch Masters Lightened Aluminum Flywheel

Buscher Racing Down-pipe w/removable cat

Blitz Turbo Timer

GReddy Profec B Spec-2 Electronic Boost Controller

Poly Bushing kit

B&M Short Shifter Kit

CF Autometer Boost Gauge and EGT Gauge


I figured I will get all that stuff done now that requires dropping the tranny and or engine to get at, besides new intercooling piping which is pretty darn expensive.

Next upgrade is a huge FMIC from Perrin.

Ummmmm, do you have a WRX as well as the EVO? EVO's do not have an up pipe, so I am wondering if you are confusing one part for another.... or if you ordered a WRX up pipe for your EVO from them

Really though if you do own an Evo stop launching your car so high or you are going to be buying a new transmission pretty soon or maybe a center diff or transfer case too. But I guess it's your money!

What do you think of the clutch and fly wheel?

This is true. My high rpm launch days are over.
