Both sides...mainly the charge side. I had him weld the exhaust side together in a couple spots but still to were I could remove the piping. Now to just buy a remote mount oil filter kit. That's a beating changing that filter.

Of course like most of us that are turbo charged. When it's above 93degrees it will over heat quick if I'm getting on it. At the same time with the cooler weather it runs about 180 to 200. I drove the car about 30miles to the dash and the temp never went about 180.

Also the vented hood I have helps realease the heat. I had stopped at a light and everything was blurry due to the heat coming out of the hood.:tup:

I don't go over 200 under spirited driving, and never over 220 on hard driving, that's why I asked... tho my engine bay temps get pretty toasty LOL

Yeah living that far north I'm sure the 90's isn't something that happens for months on end like here in KC...and I beat the humidity is a lot lower.

Once I get it dialed in and cleaned up it should look a lot better. This is still a can tune from STS:tiphat:.....So once I get the correct injectors for my meth kit I have that tuned into the car as well.
These were ran on 93 octane pump gas from BP not race fuel just in case someone wants to know.

I'll have to ask edub if he did a video of my car when it was on the dyno....can't remember. I was to stoked to do it after the first run.

I'm pleased for you. After all that, the provided components were at fault. Shame on STS for blowing you off.

The setup is strange, but effective. When built correctly.

Good for YOU!

Thanks. It's been a difficult 1 3/4 year...$10,000 + build and some loss of hair and some graying of my hair.
Removing the cats is the way to release the power for this kit.

Glad you have things going in the right direction finally. From what I understand CAT's are not the safest thing to have in a RMT anyway.

Even on a regular turbocharged car is not too safe to have cats on. I've heard some stories like the cats material getting sucked into the turbo and destroying it. Some particles even made past that and damaged the engine.

Just things I heard about having cats on for turbo cars.

How exactly would the catalytic converter components get "sucked through" the turbo into the engine?

With RMT, cats are definitely an unnecessary risk to the turbo, though, no question there.
