I am going to raise the height about 5-7mm with the coilovers and see what happens.

oh alright nice. yeah i wasnt sure cause i shot you a reply to your pm.

***RONIN*** · 09-25-2008, 08:28 PM

I believe I have settled on a Blouch 2.5R "Polka Pickle", Deatchwerks 750cc Injectors, Prodrive EBCS...Now I am not sure if I want to keep the IWG or go EWG, Keep my APS TMIC or go APS FMIC using my meth setup either way...?
Thoughts?

You might want to replace with 2.5R polka pickle with the Dom 1 49lb turbo. MuffnBluff ran the 2.5R and was not impressed with it and went to the Dom 1 and thinks its much better. He has a whole write up in his journal.

**IMPORTIMAGE** · 09-25-2008, 08:42 PM

did you see this?
06 STI, Dom 2.5, Stock TMIC w Meth - 378WHP/425WTQ @ 26PSI - NASIOC

or this

Precision tuned Donmiator 2.5r (retune) - NASIOC

i'd say it works pretty good as a medium between a really worked 20g and a dom 3. should have decent spool time etc.

06SpecC · 09-25-2008, 08:49 PM

Oh damn I guess Clark turner really jacked up Muffnbluff's tune and thats why he couldn't get the 2.5R up to its potential. Thanks for posting those links josh!

**IMPORTIMAGE** · 09-25-2008, 08:54 PM

one was internal wastegate one was external. i didn't know the real potential of it til i saw those two cars, and in seeing it i think since joe was looking for a 20g with all the bells and whistles this comes in pretty close to what he was looking to make power wise. with 400whp potential and what should be faster spool then whats shown in the 2nd setup what wouldnt be to like.

***RONIN*** · 09-25-2008, 08:55 PM

The first gen 2.5R's were not performers per the posts I have read. The newer 2.5R's are proving to be somthing.

Heck if I can get 20G numbers and faster spool then whats not to like?

***RONIN*** · 09-27-2008, 02:02 AM

I am looking for a downpipe that allow for an EWG dump tube to be plumbed back in for a stock location turbo...If I can find one in the next few weeks that is capable and quality with a cat or provision for a cat I will go EWG. Otherwise I am just going to use the IWG on the turbo I choose.

***RONIN*** · 09-27-2008, 02:03 AM

I love this shot...

Nice job preserving the factory black/ blue theme.

Your car looks fast standing still.

Any decent fab shop should be able to take any DP, cut it open and fit it accordingly. Check w/ where your having it all installed i would say
