What did you do to your FL5 today?

[I♥️LCY]

Anyway, you can send me the file for this. Would love to print one out. Also can you design a cover for the dead pedal/foot rest to go around it to protect the red carpet. I got the high-wall floor mats but that area is the only place that is exposed and will get ruined over time.

I'll actually have them up for sale soon @$20 shipped in the USA!! I'd love the support if you're still interested.

As for the pedal cover, I've been tossing around the idea of a full pedal set w/ dead pedal cover. To make a durable project, I need to perform a few mods to my printer. These parts are already on the way. I'm actually researching the final piece now, but took a mental break. I just can't decide on which dryer to buy.

Got my @SBX Performance downpipe and my turbo blanket put in.. still need to decide if i wanna cut off that shield on the o2.

Let me know when you get the production ready. I'm 100% in for dead pedal cover.

Flashed the TSP Stage 1 maps on Saturday & installed the Acuity adjustable shift kit & cable bushings. Wow. That map 1 tune with the DP, FP, intercooler, intake, intake pipe & Cobb RMM is outstanding. For the first time those Falken 660+ tires are being tested. All work together so brilliantly smooth. Props to Derek at IM for a killer tune. This thing is a freaking kill switch now.

Not to downplay The Wunderladen RMM, but the Hasport 60a feels much better and much less NVH. Idle feels closer to stock than the Wunderladen did. But both great RMM nonetheless. The Wunderladen after a year of use started to show a bit of deformity on the bigger rubber. I also changed my from pipe.

That 585 480 is impressive. Congrats to you sir. The magic starts to happen pretty early too, very responsive setup. I like it.

Welcome to the 500 club.

Nice to see the dyno graphs of different build paths (Kuro curves are pretty impressive for stock fuel system).

I'm more interested in the spool time or "transient response" or "lag" (or w/e you want to call it) of the RV6 turbo, which isn't displayed in the graphs. Assuming you are in the power band (at or around 4k), and haven't been building much boost, how long does it take the RV6 to build boost? i.e. do you have an estimate for the delay between when you put the pedal down and when the turbo starts putting out its maximum power at a given rpm relative to something smaller like the Kuro?

There's lots of information out there that shows at which RPM each turbo starts to make power, but it's hard to get data re: how long each turbo takes to go from moderate / low boost to full boost, while in the lower end of its power band, on a stock motor.

Here’s what P700 looks like and when it really makes power. I

thanks for the honest feedback.... I am looking to try it out but ill probably go race

I have a pressure bleeder which made it way easier, but I did still need to recruit my son to help pump the clutch a couple of times to fully get the air out. Apparently it's possible to install this part without letting in enough air to require a bleed, but I had to. My clutch went to the floor once I was done. The bleeder is actually really easy to get to just below and to the right of the turbo on top of the transmission housing. If I had to rate the install difficulty on a 10 point scale, I would give it a 4/10 if you have to bleed. If you can get away without it, a 2/10. It's really not bad at all.

that's my fear lol, what does the clutch feels like if you messed up. could you share what pressure bleeder you used? thank you so much!

Thanks for the comment. Who makes a one piece brace? Probably only makes sense to add it if it’s one piece. Otherwise, as you say, it’s just for show.

You have a few options like, “M&M CF strut bar”, 27Won, Carbing, Origin Fabrication, Pride Carbon,….. i’m sure i missed a few.

So many choices! I like the look of the 27Won the best and it also has that brake booster brace to go along with it. Seems well made and fairly priced. Of course the Titanium options look better, but at those prices, I'll just admire someone else's at the car shows I attend.

Picked up this spoon lip today. He is now doing a Mugen build.

Bare in mind, the clearances for the 27 won strut bar with the brace are quite tight so you have to take off the battery insulation.

Sheeeeeiit That’s too stiff for me. 90a is like riding on cement blocks.

This is the bleeder kit I used:

You will know if you don't do it properly. The clutch will have zero effort or feel.
