    Mate had one on his car with the canned tuned they ship with (Mercury?), was fucking rubbish IMO.

    This probably made it a lot better but still, just go a turbo.

      Thats to be expected though since the factory headers (more specifically, the cat and overpipe) is a notable restriction for even n/a

              Front brembo 4 pot with 330mm rotors and rear fhi 2 pots with brembo 316MM rotors. Car stops good

              Using fhi 2 pots until I can find some brembo rears.

                I went stupid and did the D2 356mm kit front and rear. Massive overkill but they work lol. 25 track days later and rotors are fine, half way thru second set of pads on the front.

                Would go the smaller kit front only next time so 17's fit without being 9.5" wide. But good value upgrade compared to the AP kit I wanted originally.

                  Yep 17's fitment is priority for me You can clear the brembo with a 8in wide wheel pretty easily. I running a 7in wide wheel with 225's and clearance is easy.

                    Think I'd just start with some decent rotors, pads, fluid and the GTS calipers.

                    Anyone running an oil cooler? Any recommendations?

                      I have a Mishimoto oil cooler kit which i bought as it seemed like a decent piece of gear

                      I should probably put an ad up for it, never used, still in box for sale. Not cheap though...

                        I use a 10 row setrab cooler with a mocal plate. Plenty enough for na on track.

                        Comment


                          Yeah 10 row would be perfect.

                          Setrab here as well. Had some brackets made up and speedflow lines to a mocal thermostat plate.

                            I have some WRX 4 pots here with rotors if you're interested. Was running them until moving to brembo.

                              Anyone running the harrop positive displacement eaton charger/intake manifold/intercooler setup? Pos-dis would surely overcome the torque dip.

                                Wow that torque graph posted a few pages back looks like a yoyo, and that's tuned?
