    Decatted midpipe- plug and play?

    Ohh it’s a legitimate part- I thought it was some jimmied part that an individual sold. So plug and play with that and it won’t read that the cat has been removed. Thanks!

    Decatted midpipe- plug and play?

    Interesting. Good to know Steve, thank you. Leaning towards the main Decat as I’m not sure I’ve got it in me anytime soon for an exhaust manifold install. Btw, where can you find these lamda foolers?

    Powerflex Upper Gearbox Bushing Install- Stuck

    Exactly that S24nrc. It took a few whacks and it popped just like everyone described and like in the video posted prior. Everything has been done, the Powerflex Black (racing) version is installed and I took my first drive with it. It’s definitely not scary as far as NVH. I felt it, it’s there...

    Powerflex Upper Gearbox Bushing Install- Stuck

    So after a short bout with an illness I’m back at it. I have the Powerflex bushings fitted, greased up and ready to go but I realize now that the two bolts on either side of the pointy bolt will be a bear to reinstall. Even if I manage to get them on, tightening them will be a b**** Will post...

    Powerflex Upper Gearbox Bushing Install- Stuck

    Thank you, Turkie. Makes sense and looking forward to trying this if I get a chance tomorrow. Will post results for others that may find this useful in the future (if I can figure how to add photos properly) haha

    Powerflex Upper Gearbox Bushing Install- Stuck

    Ahh so that’s what it looks like. I just watched a video last night that shows you just need to pop it on the head. Seeing that and this picture makes sense. It’s from a non-RS but it all looks exactly the same.

    Powerflex Upper Gearbox Bushing Install- Stuck

    Is there a better way to get this bushing out? Either I remove the entire aluminum bracket or I try removing just the bracket and bushing? Any tips much appreciated.

    Powerflex Upper Gearbox Bushing Install- Stuck

    Guys I have no idea what’s going on with the photo uploading but it’s all over the damn place. Basically in the last post, the latter 2 photos show a bolt that is underneath the whole aluminum bracket that the upper gearbox sits on. It seems like this is keeping me from yanking it out. Is it...

    Powerflex Upper Gearbox Bushing Install- Stuck

    Hi everyone, Has anyone tried this particular install? It’s for the upper gearbox mount located beneath the battery and battery encasing. I have the gearbox raised with a piece of wood on the jack and I’ve been adjusting it up and down the entire time I’ve been toying with this. Anyway, I’ve...

    Decatted midpipe- plug and play?

    Hi Steve, I appreciate the insight! “lambda foolers” okay good to know. Removing the cat there would be for performance gains, as I am eyeing these mild cams I’m looking to get my hands on. I live in Greece so from what I understand, there are emissions checks. I need to learn more, as...

    Decatted midpipe- plug and play?

    Hi everyone, Been keeping an eye out for midpipes with only the resonator and no catalytic converter. For what it’s worth, I’ve had my eye on this one...

    EU based alternatives to MS Custom Engineering port work?

    Hi everyone, I’ve always marveled at the work that MS Custom Engineering does as far as porting. Being in Greece, you will pay an arm and a leg, so I’ve pretty much ruled them out unfortunately due to the exorbitant duties and fees I’d pay. Does anyone know a company that works solely with...

    Xtreme Motorsport Aluminum (inium) Radiator

    Hey guys- really appreciate y’all’s comments. Frank: Yeah, that’s what I was thinking (hoping), too. This one is 80 mm taller and 50 mm thicker than the OE radiator but I’m fine if I can shimmy it in there. Thanks- didn’t know we didn’t have a purge on the OE radiator, good to know. Also...
