Thank you, you absolute legend. Added the parts up and it's about $605 for all 6 parts. Quite a bit cheaper than picking it up from phd racing. Solid ROI, considering where that weight sits. Now just need to make sure that i don't already have the EU brackets...
Picked up a Titan Motorsports Titanium exhaust to replace the Ark DTS i have on. The Ark looks and sounds great, but is pretty much OEM weight. The Titan one is 30lbs lighter...no brainer. Retains the OEM valve too. Going on (hopefully) next weekend.
Also have Hardrace rear subframe...
Stock manifold, no meth, and no major cooling issues? So you basically don't track the car, right?
I guess in theory, yes? But you wouldn't be getting any knock resistance. Useless when the ECU starts pulling timing from heat soak and knock. I'm sure the more knowledgeable members will chime...
That's what i'm going to try. But then it's a bit weird that my ctek charger hasn't worked. I'm really hoping it's because of what i mentioned, and that the powertex doesn't want to play nice with a smart charger. Otherwise it seems like i've gotten a defective battery, and there's no chance of...
gah, having trouble with this...
Picked up a powertex battery. Had to shipped internationally, and so the state of charge had to be dropped to 50% before shipping.
I've been trying to charge it back up with no success.
I'm using a CTEK One, which is a smart charger which auto detects the...
no argument from me there man. The wagner has been great tbh
edit: wagner needs to pay Razorlab a fee man, so many of us have pickup up one of their manifolds at least in part because of his posts
I agree that If you’re running meth without Reflex/Rev2, you shouldn’t be hard-tuning for it.
But tbh i'm not concerned about running out, because i am indeed doing hotboi laps. Well, mostly. But this is a time attack build. Our sessions overall are 20 minutes long (in general, not mine), and...
I am absolutely in love with this car. Would not choose any other car within it's price range or even double the price range. I've mentioned this before, but as good as something like a GT4 is for example, i'm not going to start chucking away OEM GT4 parts for aftermarket ones. Feels borderline...
Absolutely love those seats. Really wanted them, but they didn't make sense for my use case. Was having a hard time deciding, so i undertook a data-driven approach and identified the 3 variables that factored into my decision. Gave each variable a weight, and scored each seat accordingly...
I have the Ark DTS exhaust. Looks great, sounds great, and uses the OEM valve. But i'm going to be swapping it out for something lighter as the car transitions to 90% track 10% street. Still need something that can work occasionally on the street, so will likely still want the valve.
Best...
