Wheels couldve used more of an offset, but clean none the less.

Hey sdfontanini, your power numbers are very encouraging to those of us who want to keep the stock turbo. How much power do you think your setup makes on 91/93 octane?

I'd prolly make around 340-350 whp on 91 Octane. Not totally sure since I never dyno'd it when it was on it.

Once I get my cams I'm hoping to be right around 400 whp... I still have a lot of room on my tune to pull out some more power.

Personally I like the stock 8 turbo for it's quick spool up, prolly gonna get a 10.5 hotside sometime and replace the O2 housing and that's prolly it for engine mods until I can find a new DD.

Yeah I'm toying with the idea of replacing my rims with something more aggressive.

Thanks again guys for the positive comments. As far as the rims, I've looked into swappin those for a new set, but for right now I'm gonna first get my M2 Cams, finish installing all my AEM gauges and then going to get a new turbo, which I'm still deciding on. I love the low rmp spool up on my 8, I might just have it ported and get the 10.5 hotside. Not sure if I really want the FP red, but it's crossed my mind. Personally I'd rather have the bottom end replaced with some drop in rods and pistons before I even think about going past 400 whp. So we'll see what happens.

As far as the G200, I'm pretty sure there's a number of us using these exhausts here in the states. I haven't seen anyone in my area that's got one, but nonetheless I'm sure it's pretty common.

I love RR VIIIs... I think they look a lot better than the IXs. I love your car... only thing I'd change is the rexpeed lip. I was seriously considering buying it until I saw your pics. My lip is broke and i need another. I'm just going to get an OEM one. The rexpeed just hangs too much and doesn't look natural. Nice car, keep up the good work man!

Nice car ... indeed. I have a RR evoVIII as well. It's been sitting for a while though. It needs a bit of TLC ... Actually, a lot of TLC!!!
