Cut open another that was just on my car = small tear forming at same location at ~5300 miles.

I'd be curious how much weight in total you'll be moving from the front to back. Ought make a good difference at any rate.

TBH, im sure ill be adding more weight by moving everything in the back. just added length alone adds up in weight. IF i move my ABS module to the back, that harness will be super heavy. im not going for weight reduction or anything as much as clearing up the space to fit my twins. interior will remain the same, un stripped

Swapped boost control solenoids, moved boost boost sensor into the engine bay.

Let's see how she does today. Looks like a solid 1.4 bar on pulls in 4th and 5th.

And for the record rp530 isnt THAT bad. I prefered it over oem 5w30 due to less blow by and consumption. Now a rotella user.
