How much low end loss? Since Ive got a 2.0L i need all the low end I can get...thats a big concern of mine. I know they are pricey, but ****...its not like I havent dropped a lot of money on my RS already, you know exactly how it is 
Id love to hear how yours sounds with the cams! I would imagine its pretty burly!

The car did sound pretty "mean"..but that got me too many looks from cops,...so i switched out to fairly quiet Borla hush exhuast.
It still sounds manly tho.

It should be able to run 10's with around 430-440whp...so your right about having the power on tap,..its just a matter of finishing/fine tuning the car...and working out a few bugs.
I more then anybody would like to see this happen...really.

Just picked the car up from Gruppe-S a couple days ago...they "fine tuned" the setup alittle with a new intake and a few extra minor things and a retune...its starting to get alittle hairy even on the pump/meth map now
We'll be hitting the track soon as the car is runing tip top..with a great tune by Mike.
I'll post some better/new pics up soon as i got a new camera.

Well seeing as Mark was having some DCCD issues and dropped the car off we decided to test it.

Nice
Mark,
The work on the car looks very clean. To say the least, (sleeper) White Lightning.
I know an intercooler spray would not give all that much more power but it seems who ever did the work on the car could put a decent alcohol spray sytem in. Besides it give ya one more gizmo / button to have inside the car. Win win!
I saw a car show where these guys were using ice to cool air in a twin turbo dragster set up.
Could something like that work for your front mount?
