overall i spent 600 for the kit... and i think its time for a boost controller. a good tune and some radials...

it feels fast but when all your friends have crazy 400hp hatches it doesnt seem quite fast enough

car is running great. pulls pretty good for what it is. im running a basemap from xenocron's bin directory. i think its time for a real clutch. when i bang 3rd the rpm's the clutch disagrees.

im currently running 8psi.
