yes it is...Jason @ JPI and I were talking about how much boost we wanted to run...then I remembered who's going to be driving it. We talked about 10psi then changed our mind and decided 6psi is plenty for her lead foot . My wife is 1)a female obviously 2)asian (so am I so its not a racial comment 3) has a lead foot like a boat anchor...so 6 psi is definately safer than 10psi

Thats awesome, you know how feel about chrome under the hood. Shine will be like no other and clean up will be minutes not hours to get the total bling thing going. Can't wait to see it installed....

That looks absolutely amazing!!! Not a big fan of chrome on wheels, but in the engine bay it just looks great!

The million dollar question though is where the heck did you find an RMM SC kit??? I was under the impression they are not made anymore?

Hameed, I bought this kit over a year ago from a CL member. I just waited for the opportune time to install it.

Thanks for the compliments...can't wait to drive the "wife's" car...

Wow,
missed this thread somehow. Well, well as Adrian said that chrome bling is like no other. As you know I stuck with all polished on my set up and yes maintenance is a lot more. I'll def have to hit you up when I'm in town.

Wow the wife's driver? HAHA, my wife wanted more power in her IS300 whenever she drove my NA GS at the time. So I did boost her car with about 6psi and she is happy with the boost without having more power than what I think would get her into trouble.

Now that I'm running FI in my GS, I don't want her behind the wheel of my GS or I'm gonna have to up the boost on her car.

Being Asian and a Lead Foot, sounds like our wives have something in common.

BTW, I'm of Asain decent too.
