    Yeah Sean and I are real good friends. I no longer have the MS3 anymore and have been driving a 06 wrx limited for the last 23 months. What mods do you have on your SI?? Is it a FA5 or FG2?? Gotta post up some pics when you get a chance too man Nice seeing ya around here too.
    Hows it going bro? Its been a while man. Nice pickup on the WRX. I love that generation. I have an '06 FG2...they didn't make the FA5 until '07 I'm at work right now but I found a couple of pics from the '07 kanc cruise:

    Mine is the silver one.




    It no longer looks like that. I'll try to get some pics of how it sits now as soon as I can. Here's a mod list I can think of off the top of my head...

    Full-Race Turbo Kit
    Garrett GT3076R .82AR
    Full-Race 3" Exhaust
    Full-Race 44mm DP
    HPC 2000* Thermal Coated DP, Turbine Housing, Manifold
    Full-Race 4" Intake
    Tial 50mm BOV
    Tial 44mm WG
    Competition Clutch Stage 4
    OEM Flywheel
    OEM Throwout Bearing
    Hondata 4 Bar Map Sensor
    Hondata Boost Control Solenoid
    AEM Wideband UEGO Gauge
    AEM Boost Gauge
    NGK Iridium Spark Plugs (NGK-BKR8EIX) Heat range 8
    Walbro 255lph
    Injector Dynamics 1000cc injectors
    Hondata Flashpro
    OEM Honda OBDI IAT sensor

    If theres more I forgot I'll update the list.

        Yeah...that cruise was AWESOME! When's the next one? I'd love to try an make it.

        The GT30R flows with the K20 engines perfectly especially for a street setup. I wish it hit full boost a bit sooner but its worth the wait. Lol. It's currently at 430whp & 300ft-lbs of tq at 13.5psi. Not bad for a stock high compression motor huh?

        I haven't been able to run it down the strip yet because my battery isn't tied down which is against regulations...lol. Once I relocate the battery to the trunk and fix a few things here and there, it'll be good to go.

          All on stock internals huh?? That's awesome man!! Who did the tuning for you?? I love the Full Race stuff for the SI, they've come a long way with that car finally. For the longest time having really no tuning for the car was the killer. Good to see it finally happen, long over do

            I was just on full race site seen above. They really got some real nice stuff for the SI but damn it can be pricey if bought new from them. GT3076R kit with Flashpro, injectors, clutch, boost controller,fuel pump is in the $7000.00 window (+ tune time) ..... I'm sure vendors on 8thcivic must have some nice group buys and such

              Jeff Evans tuned. It could of made more but I wanted a conservative tune for the time being and at the time realized I was losing fuel pressure. It wasn't until shortly after I found that I had a hole in my fuel line which caused the issue. Its been fixed now and hope to crush the stock FPR and get some more out of the returnless system before I do the upgrade. Was planning to do it before I put her away for the winter but its probably best to wait until next year and get it retuned.

                YES, It was all worth it though bro. The only thing I got from them was the kit and I sourced the supporting mods seperately elsewhere like the clutch, flywheel, boost solenoid, etc. Full-Race has the best customer service and quality performance parts I've ever seen. I'm happy to support their products.

                  Yeah everyone rants and raves over the quality and top notch customer service from them. Go to know when you pay good money that the service is there too for you before/during and after the sale.

                    Do you think going any higher (hp and tq wise) on the stock block is going to last? I know the k20 is a good engine, but idk how well a stock n/a block is going to handle more then twice the hp and tq it makes stock. Either way it's a nice build and you got some good numbers, so congrats!!

                      Thanks. The K20 is a very stout motor. The RSX guys have been through this and have been doing it for years. Theres a member over at CRSX who had been boosted for two years (or maybe more now) that DD the car and pushes over 500whp+. He also says he doesn't baby his car neither. In the end, its all on how you treat the car and how well its tuned determines the motor's life span.

                        All right! I remember you now!!! I had the red MS3 on that cruise! I'd definitely like to see the FG sometime! Maybe you could take me for a quick rip in it? I wanted to do the 3076 on the MS3 but I was worried about throwing a rod and didn't want to have to build the motor!

                          Ok so I remember you now bro. There wasn't too many of us on that cruise that day so I sorta can remember the owners and match them to the cars...lol. Sure...we definitely gotta get together when the weather gets nice again. I miss those days!

                          So do you have that stang now thats in your sig?

                            Yeah, I wanted something different and I was looking to lower my payment from the MS3. This gave me RWD and V8, which I had owned neither before, and it lowered my monthly payment by over 100 bucks.

                                The 03-04 Cobra is at a pretty good price point. My only problem is that I wouldn't want to run a Cobra in the winter like I do the GT. Haha!
