You're getting confused.
I have MegaROM not RaceROM. Both by EcuTEK, but the RaceROM is the updated version of MegaROM. I can't utilise RaceROM on my ECU, which is a shame.
So it goes (being very simplistic):
EcuTEK - All mappable cars
EcuTEK MegaROM - Only JDM Newage STI's from MY03-MY05 (better than standard EcuTEK)
EcuTek RaceROM - All mappable cars from MY06> (better than MegaROM)

Hi,
agreed, turbo's and our syncro gear kit, we broke the gear casing on our dog box last outing, with time running out ( as usual) we had to fit one of our syncro kits to the drag car, not knowing what sort of power they can handle it was a bit of a gamble, luckily it worked, here it is in action with Mikeee trying his best to break it.

Hi,
the SC42 billet through to the SC54 Billet can all run dump valve free.
I run the SC54 Billet without a dump valve and get the waste-gate chatter which for me personally I prefer to the sometimes annoying dump valve noise, all down to personal preferences.

Hi Kev,
As you know i've been contemplating one of these gear kits for a long time.
The kit that Mikey is using, is that one of the Straight cut Syncro Albins kits?
I'm seriously interested in these but there's not enough info around (or I have missed it)for me to make an informed decision.
Pm if you wish.
Cheers
Daz

it is the Albins syncro kit, they are all helical as we have found them to be stronger, 3 teeth in mesh at all times.
If you are wondering why as a helical kit its so noisy, its because we are running solid billet alloy engine and gearbox mounts so all the noise comes into the cab.
We have just taken stock of some nice engine and gearbox mounts that are pretty solid yet only transfer 50% of the engine and gearbox noise into the chassis, these are pretty good and well priced at £199.99 + vat for a set.
cheers

Those mounts look like the Cusco Engine & Tranny mounts?

Hi,
they probably come out of the same factory but these are branded Tomioka racing, which we are a distributor for.
Nice range of stuff to be fair.

However I have the Cusco versions and they are very nice. A little bit of added vibrations and noise, but keeps everything nice and tight

couldn't put it better myself, "a little bit of added vibration and noise, but keeps everything tight", certainly does.

Pants- that was my of my grand plan! I dont even like my recic valve, as sound like an atmos one due to the recirc into the intake, which has an aftermarket filter on it.
Now isnt a good time to ask about anti slag on the SC36 then

I will be it's got a shi\ty HKS mushroom induction kit ,but as you have stated in your thread the OEM airbox is more than good enough for 400bhp. So it will be going back on
As for the inlet it comes with the bigger red STI inlet hose.
