Talking Jr. Tuned @ NightShift Performance



I was recently tuned @ NightShift Performance by Jr. for the summer. Originally took the car in for a clutch/flywheel + master cylinder replacement.
Some other minor work included taking a look at my 0 rev issue in warm weather where I would push the gas pedal in half-way and get 0 throttle response.
Jr. found that 1 of 5 throttle maps looks very inconsistent which was probably from my winter tune in 30 degree weather somewhere else.
Decided to just pull the trigger for an entire tune so I can enjoy the car while I build up another 3k in funds for my FP BB Green and injectors.
Stock clutch was still holding fine, but decided I needed an upgrade eventually and got an offer I couldn't refuse.

Nothing but good things to say about this place.
The staff is very friendly and I stand 110% behind all their work.

Here is my power mod list:
AMS intercooler
AMS resonated testpipe
AMS o2 widemouth downpipe
Buschur UICP
ETS LICP
ETS intake w/ heatshield
Grimspeed 3port ebcs
Greddy Racing Ti-C exhaust

You didn't have an issue mixing and matching different vendor parts? I have this idea that trying to mix and match bolt on parts like that might not work but it looks like it's the norm since they're all basically the same things just different vendors.

The only thing you need to be aware of about mixing parts is:

2008/2009 style AMS intercoolers = needs to be welded onto an additional "support beam" for 2010+ EvoX models. It doesn't take long and still flows as its supposed to. Minor inconvenience. I think this is the same for all Buschur intercoolers made for the X as well.

Also do your research on which direction the J-bend is pointing on the lower inter-cooler pipe. You may not be able to hook up your stock diverter valve resulting in having to weld in a blow off valve on the licp and capping off your intake. Or another solution would be finding a PVC tube with the correct bends to actually hook back up into the stock diverter valve. An example of the J-bung pointing in an awkward direction would be found on the Buschur LICP.

If the parts are all meant to fit with otherwise stock cars, no reason they won't all fit with each other
