The 18g spools like a 16g but it will punch hard in the 20+psi range. I put it on a dyno (self tuned) a little while ago.
155awkw @ 14psi
178awkw @ 19psi running quite rich.

I'm going to get it professional tuned very soon after I switch the system to MAP instead of MAF ( can be done with the new version of the DSMLink V3)

very clean mate. Looks great, even with the Aspec Bumpers!!

how did you get the stock heatshield to fit over the FP exhaust Mani?

The pic of the engine in the car is before the rebuild. I have no heat shield on the mani.

1 of the reason I search for the genuine RS bonnet to get rid of some heat.

I'll find a pic with the new engine.

matress would be proud of you :)
The 4G63 motor code is street shorthand for dominance. It's automotive Darwinism.

Some more pics. I have fitted an evo 3 radiator, a new intercooler & have a j-spec rs front bar about to go on. I also changed the my boost controller to an Apexi AVCR & fitted it into a Galant GSR dash pod normally used for the suspension control.

I have also upgraded to the Ecmlink V3 & have fitted MAP sensor & GM IAT ready for SD.

Yeah I should on the cruise.

The last intercooler was too big & hung under the car.
So far this 1 is doing its job @ 20psi+.
