you will have to upgrade your 440's if you are going to a 20g...I upgraded to 550's with just an 18g. Good clean looking car btw.

the Sard run at 3.5 bar should give me enough on the 440's

sti tail lights are getting buffed at the minute and hopefully on at the weekend

I have a Fuellabs FPR running at about 3.5bar and I'm sure my IDC are around 85%...that's on an 18g with 550's. I seriously doubt 440's will be man enough for a 20g

we will just have to try and see lol

dont have to run the turbo flat out though, just take it to what i can

sorry wasn't trying to be negative, I did all the work on my car (bar the mapping), so I know how frustrating it is to be disappointed if you can't meet your aims in the time frame you want to

Good luck

no its ok lol,
the only reason i want the bigger turbo is to move up to about 360ish bhp for the mean time then in the future it means i can go higher when i get bored

good job on the car btw how do you get all that past the other half????

Dspeed

Wow love it. Can I see some more pics of the engine bay please mate? That is how a front mount should be. Which one is it and did you have to cut ur inner wing?

ok the brakes were a steal from New Zealand got them delivered for £800


The FMIC is an autobahn 88 and no i didnt have to cut anything only the back of the bumper then painted it all black


easy to get past the missus she knows i am addicted to car modifying haha she wouldnt expect anything less

YOUR FORGETTING THE VERY NICE AND VERY RARE WORK BRONZE ALLOYS M8

oh yes the wheels too lol.

ordered some nice toyo 888's for them

Nice set up

One question though, are you running OEM nuts on those rotas ? I have the torques and the flat subaru nuts aren't a good fit with the deep 60 degree taper that the rota wheels need. Be careful those nuts don't strip the holes.

j16jrf

iTrader: (3)

yes i have always run the OEM nuts, what do you use on them?

j16jrf

iTrader: (3)

now this is on its way

Harvey Smith TD05/06 20G woohoo

I used the deeper rota nuts that came with the wheels but recently upgraded to a nice set of Rays nuts.

Was pointed out to me when I bought the rotas and is just something to be aware of is all, might spoil a nice set of wheels

and where would i get a set or rays nuts from then? i can get some racey carbon fibre ones but they are £50 lol but ott for wheel nuts
