Nice! Question though, why is it that we never saw any videos of your car? It seems like some (if not ALL) FI members REALLY keep to themselves; I don't understand this. If you have a beast, post some videos...even anonymously on youtube. There are many of us that want to see a SC'd GS4 run!

tell you the truth i have been meaning of taking a video of me drifting in my warehouse honestly every time i get one mod done i start a new one so most of the time its in pieces at the shop but as soon as i get it back together ill take a video. they sound awesome with the rmm exhaust and bov letting out when you let off the throttle i should at least do a sound clip. Ill try this weekend

i have a split sec ftc1 and have had the apexi neo in for awhile but i dont think hey had anything for the tuning you dont have issues if you use the large pully at 5psi the bigger injectors make up for it.

I had one in the past, pretty nice kit. I sold it to Dave, so its still running on the new owner of his car.

I highly doubt that you will ever see RMM produce them again. Everyone says they want one, but when they are available nobody steps up and spends the cash. gotta pay to play fellas!

i know every time someone hit me up i told them 6000 they never replied back. and thats with my split second ftc1 and three pulleys with it and i just got a new supercharger from vortec maybe 3000 miles on it. the supercharger alone was 2000 to replace..

here's an old video of mine...its been redone and will be on the dyno soon with REAL tuning. JPi didn't really "tune" the car, and I've redone just about every single thing that shop did to my car...

Will post new video up soon

the only reason i want to sell it is so i can throw a ls2 motor and six speed in. its cheaper than just putting a six speed on the lexus motor. i have changed my mind many times but it made up this is the only way i can get a manual in the car with out costing a fortune in custom parts.

i think the ryno guy is my car i bought it of a guy in orange county and it didnt still have the direct port injection he must of sold that but it did have it because i took out the nos wiring and bottle holder and he also had paper work showing the engine rebuild in 2006 because they blew it on nos. thats funny see i want 3000 less than he did and i bought a new charger his was old with a crack in the casing and the front seal went out quick. i have fixed a lot of what ryno did himself already he would probably **** himself if he saw the car now i have probably dumped another 25,000 into it and still going wont stop till its one of a kind....25 people is too many i want to be one of two or three people at most..lol

you are right on the money with comparing the costs of different set ups. Your gonna spend a minimum 10k to put a V160 on you 1UZ.....trust me, I know!!

according to glen he said the larger pulley.. the stock MAF can take care of the change..

anything larger requires a piggyback like the SAFC i believe.

The kit did come with a manual. I think someone posted a pdf, but I'll leave it up to someone else to search. I have a hard copy of the instructions myself with pics.
