RnR 3076 *pics*

After an exhausting and stressful wait on getting my turbo kit and getting it installed, everything is finally coming together and I couldn't be happier. I just thought I would share my experience so far to those of you who might care.

Special thanks to Ryan @ RnR for answering all my questions and helping me to get everything squared away with this awesome kit. The quality of this kit is top notch.

Also a big thanks to Maxx, Jason, Mike and everyone at Myne’s Performance in Mesa, AZ for installing this bad boy. They ran into a few overlooked (on my part) things and sorted everything out while I was on vacation. I came back and my car was looking and sounding great with this kit installed.

The "goods" included a Garrett 3076 turbo with equal length ram-horn style manifold, TiaL 38mm wastegate with external dump, 4" intake with filter, slim fan, upper radiator hard pipe, new lower ic pipes, SS oil and coolant lines, and a new 3" downpipe.

Final tuning to be done following my .63 A/R hot side install, but so far this thing rips. I can definitely feel the lag of the bigger turbo, but once boost hits the car gets up and goes. I cannot wait to crank the boost up once my car is fully tuned and I'll be sure to post back when I have some dyno numbers.

And you know I wouldn’t hold out on you guys, so here are a few in-car pics:

I like that upper radiator pipe/hose setup a lot! Wish someone made that and sold it as a kit!

This car is no joke guys... This is the first I've seen of it with the new kit. I can't even imagine how fast it is now.

Still working on getting it tuned, and I'm using the AEM EMS. Scot Gray is tuning my car, but tuning is limited to my income so that's the reason for the delay. If all my friends didn't decide to get married this year (9 weddings!!!) I would have my car tuned already. lol

Out of boredom and curiosity I got my car dynoed yesterday at Vivid Racing. 321whp/300wtq, 18psi, 91octane, 10.9AFR, Mustang Dyno. It had to be over 120 degrees in the dyno room - it was like an oven in there!! For reference, this is over 60whp more than I dynoed on the stock turbo (22psi) under similar conditions (summer heat, Mustang Dyno, 91 octane.)

I'm still in the process of getting tuned so I will get back with you guys once I'm running full tilt. Plan on seeing pump gas and race gas numbers.

Ryan, I couldn't be happier! (aside from the speeding ticket I got this summer lol)

I still need to get my ish together and finish getting my car tuned. But with all the money I have into the house my wife and I are building that leaves little for the Evo. As soon as I sell my Civic I'm getting that other hotside put in and making a trip out to SoCal to have Dr. Gray finish working his magic. I can't wait!!

The car runs like a champ though. Thanks again for all your help!
