    Tony -

    How difficult is it to remove the air filters to clean them, as needs to be done periodically?

    Thanks.

    Front turbo is easy. The rear will be a little trick. Will have to pull the DP. But there is plenty of room to run in intake pipe for the rear turbo over to where the stock intake was. In the finished kit this is prob what we will do.

    Do want.

    This twin kit is going to have a lot of advantages over a single kit. Less complexity in the manifolds (cheaper, stronger, less chance of breaking/leaking), O2's in a place they wont fry, PLENTY of headroom for power, and better response since there are still no TwinScroll single options. Go break in that clutch and set some records! How long after R&D does it usually take you to go into production? (Read: May/June?)

    With your mod list it seems that you already have all the foundation(chassis wise) to really make use of the stage 3 kit. C'mon man, you know you want itClick here to enlarge

    Forgive my memory in my old age but I could have sworn someone said something about vaporware... I could have sworn. Hmm, my mistake I guess. Theirs too.
    I mentioned vaporware. And you took my post of vapor ware out of context and actually in the reverse. I advised Vargas from dealing with people that have posted vaporware projects as he is timely.

    Congrats on the start up. One thing I like about Vargas is their unwavering confidence in their product and this vid proves it.

    That would require lifting the engine. Do you suggest lifting it for the install in any case?

    Not understanding what you are saying at all. As I said there is plenty of room for a intake pipe in the back, you do not need to pull the engine to get to the intake pipes. To install this kit you have to removed the stock pipes anyways. Engine does not need to be removed at anytime for this install.

    It just looks tight, but no need for pulling the engine is good news for your kit.

    I'm not sure if I missed it in any of the other threads, but why procede as the tune? I thought it was going to be ptf protuned (cobb) since dzenno would be the first person to tune this thing?

    Ok check engine light fixed and misfire gone. Bad connection at coil cyl #1. Pulled coil and plug to be sure, put it back together and Running PERFECT. As soon as the clutch line shows up and we get it bled its time to get it on the road. I love when you change like 8 million things on a car and its something as simple as a bad connection. Here we go
