To be honest, if you aren't completely happy with your clutch I don't see how those motor mounts are going to help the cause at all.

Call me crazy, but once I got my solid poly mounts in the front and rear, I noticed it was much easier to drive the 6 puck.

If you don't mind telling, how much have you spent on this thing now?!?!? This thing has an insane amount of expensive parts on it already for how new the car is.

I'm estimating that I'll have $20k into mods and labor when it is done. All of the big pieces are purchased so there won't be a whole lot more to this thread...I'm down to looking at aero and other cosmetic stuff at this point.

I figure it makes more sense to spend money on a new car than an old one. I don't intend to ever sell it. This will be my DSM one day. lol.

I've heard that from a few people. It's also mellowed out some now that I have a few miles on it.

Did some research into my fueling situation today...spoke to Full Blown, Blaqops and Shane @DB. I'm going to be sending a Full Blown double-pump hanger to Blaqops to get their boost progressive pump setup. I'll then have Shane install a set of the ID2000's rather than mess around with an FPR and modifying pumps for higher pressure, etc.

Now this is a ballin' fueling solution. It'll be a shame to put that under a seat!

Too bad no one will ever see it, except for these pics! Sounds like the perfect setup.

Definitely true. The big catch for me is that I couldn't send my fuel pump core into Blaqops and have the car down for a week. I'd just end up paying $35/day for a rental car. I'd rather buy the hanger and try to sell the stock pump/housing for someone else to use as a core.

Thats a pretty sick fuel setup.

You better be buying a bigger turbo to make use of all your newly purchased goods!

CBRD BB-X and cams are on the way in a week, so I decided I better get my ass in gear on the supporting mods. Can't do 450 at DB without more corn juice.
