When Shaggy said “Petty”, he meant the Pittspeed username Petty. He has a 2.5 RS with an STi swap. Do a thread starter search on the username Petty, there are pics of his car.

we’ve messed around with 2 differnt turbo RS’s. neither of which turbo kits ever seemed to have all of the bugs worked out of them. the overall fitment of the kit was nice, but the fueling that came with the kits was something to be lacking.
