No brainer Rogue Tuning M-Tune. Nice performance and drivability boost now, and future proof for later.

Very nice! Always loved that car. My first upgrade would be the "turbo" emblem and Porsche decal on the rear. Under $100. By the time those arrive you'll have had plenty of time to sniff around the list and see what's what.

Welcome aboard!

It lives!!!! Man...it's tough to see these pics, knowing what I lost. But I'm happy to see another 'Lister inherit a great car.

Looks like Turbo Ted patched it up and sold it?

The interior appears to have the seats changed and a harness bar added, and the IC pipes are different, but it looks like the same car to me.

Also, I believe the injectors are the stock green top injectors which can only support about 300RWHP @3.0 bar (on a good day). The FPR appears to be the stock 2.5 bar unit as well (but you can get them in that color @ 3.0bar).

I'm not sure exactly what a "cheater" turbo it appears to be a KKK unit based on the stock water pipe. Autothority is older software and didn't have a lot of options for turbos so it is probably a 26/6 or 8 based turbo. I would say it could be a 27/6 or 8 but again the water pipe appears to be unmodified and the turbo water temp sensor is not the low profile version. Base on what I can see, those mods can not support 375 RWHP and 300RWHP @ 18psi would be more reasonable.
LOL! Welcome to the board.

BTW, he's probably right.


Anyway, congrats. Nice looking car.
