looks like a great install, love that plenum. Question though, it looks like they used rtv to seal the downpipe to the turbo. Why didn't they use a gasket there, do you think that will hold up to the heat fromt he turbo since it's only good till 700 degrees?

Pitty about your DEFI's. DEFI quality showing its true colours. All show, and no go.

in regards to his AFR, he is running test pipes, no cats. APS pipes none the less... probably the best parts on the car.

398whp at 6.5psi is still impressive. 487whp is just ridiculous and a bit misleading for those that don't understand correction factors.

I wonder if he has a wideband and what it's reading.

i completely agree, we installed and tuned over 70 utecs last year alone. every problem i ran into was solved by upgrading the firmware and really getting to know why the utec does what it does. i have had no problems at all with them lately. i have seen a lot of poorly tuned utecs come in with issues that should have been resolved and the customer was told that the utec just does that.
you cant beat a utec for under 1000 dollars and a mild to mild/medium build.

Don't worry about it guys. Honestly its childish and I'm embarrassed I bit at his bate.
Back on topic: Really enjoying the car. Went on a cruise through the mountains and it was a blast. Only complaint I have is I keep forgeting I don't need to downshift for power. LOL
