Looks great. The engine is flawless! So clean that I got to ask where did you move the battery?

Absolutely gorgeous. Your car is the epitome of what I fully modded GS should be like!!! Nice work. Thanks for setting the bar so damn high, now I gotta figure out how I can ever reach that level

I have to say this is one of the cleanest builds i have seen. Tune looks good from the dyno sheet. Very smooth.

I don't know the flow charts on that particular turbo but the exducer appears to be around a .96 . Depending on your fuel system you should see 7-800whp no problem.

As far as the transmission. You came this far, why not opt for this? A little over $20,730 MSRP Pricey yes, but way baller and you won't loose as much boost pressure between shifts.

HKS USA discontinued the box over 10 years ago but from the looks of it its back on HKS JPNs p/n list.

What EFI system are you using? Autronic? AEM? FAST?

Once again, hands down one of the best examples of VIP/EXE tuning in the US to date.

There isn't a good way to say it, but WOW! Your car is insane, even before the engine mods. I hope to have half the car you got one day!
Keep up the great work!
