Did you do the merging of the harness yourself? If you did it yourself I will seriously contact you in the future when I swap my RS for points of reference.

if you put the stock sti intercooler in an airbox then i am going to have to hate on that.

1 its pre-turbo
2 its extra weight
3 it could very well be restrictive ( i cant see the actual design)

Not that it looks like you were going with the function>form version of hookin the car up anyway.

Other then that--- congrats on the swap. glad tosee you have some balls back up the styling. Now get an external gate and really scare people

Negative on the 6 speed swap...I fugure Ill break sumthing in that anyway ( when the bigger turbo comes ) so why spen the $3000+ to swap it and then do it again when it breaks a 2nd time .....I mind as well just do it rite the first time w/PPG for a lil less then the cost of two 6 speeds.....Yes I need breaks like StopTecs or sumthing with a 13in rotor

Like BoB said I gotz a FMIC....that box is a filter isolation box....welcome to the world of cars with out cold air intakes and short rams that do less than nothing but make Ur car loud----er

Cost...? w/motor and motor swap related stuff close to $7k

Harness: No I did a total harness swap from tail lights to the rad fans....all plug and play sept for the 4 wires on the tranz

you definitely wont break an STi 6 speed... it is incredibly strong. with that said ppg gears are great and if you want to go that way then i'm sure you wont regret it. if you want something to hold the power though, either will do just fine there.
