its time for more power.... fuck it!! Interestly..... they reckon catless for our setups yields very decent power gains, from the pm i got they reckon 15-20hp easily, not to mention lower EGTs.
i hope AEM sort you out... they really need to..... did you get the older kit or the newer style one with the recirc pump??

IIIIINTERESTING. Gonna look it up. I'm really gonna slow down on my mods for a while now though, but I'd love to be able to increase the boost without having to take the engine apart. 14.5psi sounds like a solid goal =) even if I can only get 93 octane. Maybe they'd be able to upgrade the ESS kit without much trouble if its running the same supercharger
I was offered to go catless by the guys who did my exhaust cutouts, but I'm worried about tuning being thrown off
not sure if I have the older kit...probably.
