  1. So in your opinion, the drawbacks of forged don't outweigh the pros to doing them on a DD?
  2. I'm about to be installing an HTA68 and supporting fuel, so I am going stage 3. It is my DD so i'm going to be tuning conservatively. Would forged be in my interests then?
  3. I also have a question (not to take attention away from doobaru above though). If we choose to go with an OEM piston when rebuilding, or something similar that isn't forged, would it be advantageous to throw in forged rods on top, or would that create uneven pressure/wear?
  4. Someone in my state had neighbors complain because his license plate read 'MERLOT'. Yes. Like the wine. And it got to the courts, and the judge made him remove it. What. The. ****. It really bothers you that someone has a type of wine on their LP? Shows you what kind of people live in my state...
  5. 95,xxx miles. Nothing really notable to ... note. Have an exedy clutch, catless UP, catted invidia DP, other mods... Have changed rotors and pads once.. Should probably do that again. Have yet to see the check engine light come on.. knock on wood. Maybe the bulb is burnt out and I don't know it.
  6. Doesn't... doesn't the whole world want a fast car?
  7. They should have just made the intercooler out of straight metal. What is this plastic bullshit?
  8. Here's what mine looked like last night straight off my car.
  9. Haha yeah I hear you. My IC is starting to really bust/leak at one corner, so at this point it's not really likely to hold up even with your mod, so I figured meh, I might as well JB it to see what happens.
  10. What's the advantage to this kit over, say, JB Welding the entire perimeter of the intercooler? Not knocking or anything, just curious since JB Weld is strong stuff and will seal gaps at the same time.
  11. Right on. Once I get closer to my stage 2 build I'll order it if they're still being produced
  12. Bit late here, but curious as to the effectiveness of these. Has anyone reviewed this yet? What kind of pressure can you reliably run through this? I like the idea of not having to spend another $700 for a decent TMIC to increase boost levels and get the most of a catless UP and hi flow DP
  13. So does this video imply that I can call bullshit on shops when they quote multiple hour labor rates?
