a friend of mine runs one in his ep82...the noisy one...he has had it for years now and its held up quite well to this day. for sure when you press the clutch it makes a very "metallic" sound which always attracts the attention of those closeby (pedestrians and drivers in traffic...lol) i personally dont like the noise, but you have options in that area and its a personal preference....and also, imo, it feels a bit on the racey/stiff side, but still drive-able if you can live with that apart from those things, its a quality clutch and i'd recommend it if your budget can afford.

looks good enough morgey....decent job that

i'd suggest meshing it as well given the limited room you have and as the bare minimum safety precaution

cool boss . i hope you get everything sorted but i give you a few weeks before you miss the tf035....

actually daniel_g, this is something i was interested in from years ago as well. I actually never had any problems with stock pistons (broken ringlands) in all my years. It was always the stock rods that had me a little skeptical in terms of revs and reliability at higher boost levels. Again, knock on wood, the stock thicker 4efte/5efhe rods worked great for me, but i was more concerned that a rod would give out than a piston. The stock units can work well once you have a very good tune....the tune is where it is at as the slightest detonation and your stock pistons will be destroyed at higher

can anyone give me the type of bulbs i need for the front of the car 1) head lamps 2) park lights 3) fog lamps i want to order some for my car, but not sure which model/type bulbs i need.

stick with the tf035 ,,,upgrade to the 6cm back end if you dont already run it from what you stated, this seems to be the better turbo for you.
-
i agree...this is worth a try before the td04 swap
-
figured by now someone would have made something...guess its the bigger 4efte/5efhe rods then for those seeking to keep stock pistons

thanks goldenvtr -
been seeing some comparisons on youtube between these (osram laser/breakers) and phillips (+130+150, diamond,etc),,,various bulbs makes it kind of hard to decide lol

did you ever find any information on this combination 5e colin?

try id-workz or ebay

do you find so Gainzy?...i was looking into getting HIDs last year and when i did research on here i kept getting that HIDs are no good with our headlamps?!?! so i just try to keep the headlamps clean/polished to get out as much light as possible via the stock bulbs but i agree, the stock lights could be brighter

glad you got it sorted goldenvtr can you post up a vid of how it sounds now? do your forge pistons keep noise/slap on first start?.........does the noise/slap go away completely when to operating temperature or just lessen down? asking as it seem some people say forged engines are kind of noisy -
based on one case i know of, i can say that the mambo turbo works quite well and very reasonably priced
