am i missing any crucial parts? my power goals are around 400whp. i realize that i am probably going to need cams but i would really like to retain the VVT for low end power. is there any way around this?

fyi.. i have the MR downpipe, it kinda sucks for clearance. depending on how low you are, the flex peice will hit practically anything 2 inches off the ground. if i were to suggest a downpipe... you should get the circuit sports one. its an integrated downpipe and turbo elbo all in one.other than that, good luck with your project. the blitz DTT DC2 is pretty cool, i have that one in my car... good choice.

thanks for that heads up. i think i will go with the circuit sports one. does anyone know if any flow (power) is sacrificed for the flattened shape?

eh.. i dont think its so restrictive. the circumference of the pipe is the same. anyways, the turbo elbow is ~$100 and the downpipe is also ~$100, so when you think about it (circuit sports downpipe/ elbow ~$200), your paying about the same, just minus the effort of connecting the elbow to the downpipe..

theres a review on that new magazine that came out about a month ago on the circuit sports downpipe/ elbow. i think the magazines called project car or something like that.
