btw, whats the clearance to ground? 1"?

The clearance is low, but definitely more than an inch. The clearance issues are more from the STS kit/ BC racing coilover combo. Either component by itself doesn't creat an issue, if that makes sense.

Dude if you can show me any drama behind the STS cars that CIN Motorsports has completed Me, Daniel and Nick havent had any problems so before you go bashing STS get your info correct. I recall drama from MRC but than again Julian is all about starting drama.

He is right, no matter how you look at it.

CAN YOU READ? i said nothing about STS Cars or CIN Motorsports for that matter... fcking learn to read man.. i said cars done at different shops for build/install/tune..

MRC has never had drama coming out of the shop.. so please keep julian's name and MRC's name out of your mouth.. i'm a customer of MRC.. so there is no reason for you to take shots at them

I ran over a very large adult racoon the other morning. I hit it and I went off the road. The racoon tore my front bumper off. My side pipe stayed on and didn't move and the turbo didn't even get close to the ground. So clearance is not an issue

You can lower the car, just nothing too extreme. I am probably sitting about an inch or so lower than stock

You STFU. I'm just saying even if that was the case EVERY TIME which its not, why would you jump in this guys thread who's totally stoked about his car making some serious power and try to put him, his car, and the SHOPS that did the work down? It's a quality motor from a reputable vendor, a build done by a top notch shop, and a tune from one of the best tuners in the country. In what way does that increase the likely hood of some sort of failure?

So here is one video of the car on the dyno. It really doesn't capture just how loud the turbo is, i think the pitch of the whine of the turbo is too high and my camera just can't get it. I will try to get some video later of me actually driving, perhaps then i might get some better sound.

Doug has a point. In MOST cases; to many cooks in one kitchen is a recipe for disaster. No matter how good each "cook" is. For all we know... the OP can never have an issue with the car and enjoy it from here on out. But histroy is not in his favor. I hope all goes well.

Thanks, and yes I do plan on running more boost, as I have said in a few posts, we are planning a few other mods to play with and see what happens. Dyno sheets are at Performance Factory, and as Jeremy in his post, he is extremely swamped and hasn't had a chance to go through anything. I'm sure he will post them when he gets time.


I just went out and tried to get some good video, but again, my camera didn't pick up any of the turbo. I know that Joe at CIN has a much better camera at the shop, so the next time I go out there I will make sure to get some video taken.
