Got the car in September of ’06 as this:

Bone stock, nothing done to it at all….

My first mod was to put a kamei badgeless grille. That was in December.

Next few items don’t have pix as they don’t really need them..
Start of the yea ‘07r I decided to get tuning, went with apr tune, got a stratosphere dv, clear cornered my headlights , dual foglight moded my taillights, and started working on the exhaust. I went with an ebay muffler and 2.75 in pipe from the cat back, and boost guage.

Then came August ‘07. Time to do the timing belt. While I was in there I decided to do my fmic. And the 034 tip, cone filter, heatshiled, s4 wheels, m3 lip spoiler, testpipe, and euro s4 headlights, europlate.

Winston decided to make the podi for the b5 so I decided to pick one up… but sadly enough a few months later I went a new route boost gauge wise and sold it and picked up a vdo(center vent style)
Mike Hood started up his own company and since I had such a good experience with him when purchasing my clutch, I decided to go full stern mounts, so that was my next big purchase(only have the snub install as of now)
Then we hit the present and I decided I wanted to be faster, so I called up my contact on products, Mr. Hood and told him I was ready to upgrade. Told him the power range I wanted to be at(250-300 awhp) and he recommended the gtrs, so that is where I am today.

The GTRS is a route I'd like to go, but probably not this year. Going appearance right now.

what manifold are you running? and with the uni tune i thought it was 440cc injectors, do they have different files to choose from?

are you done installing everything? or are the pics you just posted of the install where you are at right now? let me know!!!!

oh and you should take like 1000 pics of the install for everything you are doing and then send them to me. i will be needing this soon

Awesome - your car is one I was hoping would be featured in a timeline. You'll love the GTRS for sure.

ty guys for the kind words...

i have the atp/034 hf manifold... from the kit mike sells... it is a stock replacement, looks the "same" but thicker... those are of my build, search my name for my build thread, i actually took the front off the car which you don't have to do, but makes it so much easier


and so far i really like the gtrs, but at first i really liked just being tuned....lol

uni has multiple tunes, they have the 440 and the 630... after talking to him i opted for the 630 cause i might go full bodied at some point, and that is one less thing i have to worry about

so uni's 530cc tune is the exact same for elim as it is for full body? have you taken this to a dyno yet?
