Moved the AEM Infinity to the engine bay, and other mods

Just finished up my latest round of upgrades and adjustments.


1. Moved AEM Infinity to engine bay, and stripped all extra wire out of the car
2. Moved ACD to the trunk
3. Solid State Relays for the fuel pumps
4. FPR Hard line
5. Evo X LCA
6. Wedsport TC105n's 17x9


and a ton of other small odds and ends.

Great job! Super clean. Are you using a hobbs switch in conjunction with the solid state relays?

Love it Very clean & especially it being an RS

Youve got guts running that modded setup in Calif

Looks like youve got it set up for the 1/4 mile?

Is this car more focused on drag racing or road racing? How much does it weigh?

Solid state relays are ran directly off the AEM Infinity, first pump is 60% until anything over 3000rrpm then it is 100%, second pump tapers in from 60%@130kpa to 100%@160kpa.


Car is a road race car, weight should be right at 2750 wet.


I live in socal but car is registered in Airzona , **** CA.


A smaller turbo I in the works, wanting to try out the new Xona stuff, but this turbo is still in good shape, and works well on the tall tracks.

Nice weight reduction, care to elaborate? Also, I couldn't tell from the pics, but did you delete abs? If so, do you have any pointers on how to avoid flat spotting the tires? Thanks.

Car is an rs so no abs from the factory. On the flat spots, modulate that brake pedal, also good rubber and good pads. I run rs3's and hawk dtc60's.

I am a beginner to mid level driver, some skills but not great. The best thing is turn the power down, the lowest I can run my car is 420whp and that is still way to much for me. I would like to have a solid 300-350whp for the track, with as much torque as I can get.

When I did my turbo I wanted a car I could do everything in and went with the 3586 on a .63 hotside. It has been great but just to large for what I want. Car make 420whp all th way to 700whp via boost controller.

On the weight reduction, anything that can be removed has been. All extra wire removed, cf driveshaft, coil overs, removed hvac, removed, wipers, crash beams, and all sorts of odds and ends.

Car looks amazing, well done! Im in the middle of relating my ACD to my trunk. Wiring was easy but man routing the hardline sucked hardcore. All that's left is fabbing a bracket bleeding the system and praying that my flares dont leak! Do you have a pic of how you mounted your ACD pump? Mine will be located on the driver side fully in the trunk to protect it but curious what you came up with?

From the looks and sounds of it you've done some cool stuff to your car and more importantly not basic bolt on modifications as those are cake compared to relocation rewiring and other one off jobs. Keep up the good work!

I was like "How are you getting that car smogged with the Infinity?"

And then I read "Arizona" and got all sad...
