Max Y visited us in 2018 for bolt-ons and returned in 2019 for a Stillen supercharger supercharger and OS Giken limited-slip differential. Power can be addicting so Max visited Z Car Garage recently for more boost and a full Stoptech Big-Brake Kit to reign it all in.

 

Providing more boost is a 9lb pulley and supporting upgrades to the fuel system including a CJ Motorsports return fuel system with billet hat. Injector Dynamics 1050cc injectors and 485lph Wallbro pump.

 

A Soho motorsports air to air intercooler kit replaces the Stillen air-to-water setup:

 

We pulled the transmission to install a Fast Intentions billet flex plate:

 
 

 

Dyno tuning was performed via Ecutek making 447hp/324tq  91 octane and 475hp/349tq 100 octane:

With more power available the brakes were upgraded to a full Big-Brake Kit from Stoptech:  6-piston calipers with 355mm front rotors and ST22 calipers in rear with slotted rotors :

 

This kit sports Stoptech 6-piston calipers calmping 355mm front rotors and ST22 calipers in rear with slotted rotors, OEM vs Stoptech front:

 
 

The brakes also look great behind those awesome Enkei R05rr wheels:

 

New SPPC front/rear control arms and a full alignment following installation of larger Michelin Pilot SS 275/40/18 F and 295/35/18 R

 
  
 

It was very important for Max to monitor boost,  A/F, and trans temperature so we installed a  PLX Devices DM100 gauge in the factory clock lcoation:

 
     
 

We replaced the headlights with an HID setup(7k), and installed Max’s rear/side diffuser panels:

  
 
 

Zspeed Performance splash shield:

 
Enjoy The Boost, Max!
