    A Better rotor combo with Evo 8/9 Brembos

    I'm using the evo 8 brembo's on my speed6, but I don't remember having to modify the rotors at all.. just bored out the knuckle slightly to mount up (although now that I think about it.. i did get them used, may have already been modified and am still using the same rotors/pads). The squeal, is...

    Gen 2 seats

    I have a sparco evo II US racing seat (just slightly wide for me, but i'm skinny) with the sparco side brackets and the planted seat bracket (base). I have the speed 6, but it's the same for the 3. You'll have to wire a resistor for the other bags to work if you do the easy route.. cutting...

    So, a bit of an update... - I added a yellow spring into the ewg along with the blue/black, so it's now at 17.4 psi, wgdc much lower now (found out the neat trick of blowing compressed air into the side port to compress the springs, very helpful when putting it back on!) - I bought a new ac...

    Help with Wastegate Pressure
