Drove it.

Running a race fuel blend so reflashed to a little more aggressive variation of Sam at By Design's Cobb tune that he set up for me. 1.1 bar feels pretty damn good

I went with the Rennline mounts - http://www.rennline.com/Rennline-Tun...oductinfo/M18/

You can choose from Race to Sport - and I chose the midrange - and did not notice a difference.

It's like you are reading my mind. Over by the Ridge there's a petroleum company that sells race fuel. Gonna go get my fill and do the same.
Hopefully your available next Thursday. Ppi got pushed back. Let me know!!!!

I've thought about doing that before

Yep I'll be around

It's a noticeable difference with the blend and the tune to take advantage of it. Do it!! I don't think I will be able to go back to running just pump. That is why I didn't do a full race gas fill up.

After having the 1.0 bar wastegate actuators I got from Silly Rabbit Motorsports sitting on my workbench for the past 7 months, I finally gave in and took it to Doc at RennsportKC. He worked some magic on a rusted up waste gate arm to save me from having to replace the turbo. Replaced the buggered up lower boost hoses with some OEM hoses. Oil change and out the door way cheaper than it probably should have been.
The car runs great now. It's got a Revo tune, just set on level 2 of 4, but 2nd gear pulls are a blast. Thanks Doc!!

Not sure, but i believe the previous owner did exactly that, since the bumper itself isn't aftermaket
