i'll grab some pictures today.
could be a boost leak or the blow off valve is on backwards. The intake scale will be off a little too.

Can you tell me how much the dealership charges for an SE lip?

They first charged me $344.88 and need to be ordered from Cali

But after tax and everything, he found out I'm in the military so I got a discount. Price got lowered to $311 + tax = $330 something.

I ordered it on Henderson Courtesy dealership. I jacked up my front lip so I needed to replace it.

So how important is the 500 mile break on period for clutches? I'm just wondering how I'm gonna break in the new clutch with the new kit on and old tune.

I broke my in by launching the **** out of it a few times. I've had the same clutch for around 50k miles and LOTS of racing... lots of pro racers swap clutches out at the track,then hop right into racing,no break in there.

but im sure the manufacturer of the clutch will have a recommendation. Just do what they say

I wouldn't launch the **** out of it right off the bat....just like brakes, you need to transfer material from clutch to flywheel / pressure plate. Some lightly spirited driving for at least a tanksworth of gas should be enough. I've broken in clutches by just driving from home to lee canyon road, up, over, and back down lee canyon in a spirited fashion (in the middle of the night of course), while using plenty of up and down shifts. my.02

Well I won't be able to do much of any spirited driving with that turbo. I basically have to stay out of boost.

Maybe. My car is at the shop right now. I was hoping to have the kit off, this week. but because of SEMA it probably won't happen. I have to work but my car will probably be there.

I stopped by Teribble's house the other day and he made an awesome upper intercooler pipe and intake. i was using the stock evo pipes and boy do they have a lot of bends. so since my battery is in the trunk he made this beauty. its 2 section so less chances of leaks.

Thanks again man i love the new responsiveness of the car.

Hey everyone, Some of you know I've been talking about selling the Vo. Well it's posted http://www.voxforums/forums/showthread.php?t=55550 <------ Add the "e" I only post in this section on this site so I can't post it in evom classifieds. Spread the word for me. I'm paying the buyer 2k to buy it for the full payoff or willing to put 2k towards the payoff so he/she can get a lower loan amount.
Thx!!!
