Please do.

With all of the business you are giving to Stillen, maybe you should get sponsored or at least invest in Stillen stock! :lol:

That's cool! Probably you can start your own tuner shop there. :lol: I didn't know that there is a big auto aftermarket accesory market in Taiwan.

There is a big market just not for FX right now. I just dont have the patience for people to import in mass quantity and take over 6 months just for a spring. But there are 2 FX in Taiwan with superchargers already, but still needs a lot of work, will see both this weekend.

headers is one important mod, racing cats give another plus.
They're all valuable pre mods for FI :twisted:

Intercooling the FI efficiently is a healthy way to go.

:roll: Read something interesting !

Audi top tuner MTM adapted a Kleemann S/C on their new S4.
450 ps is claimed.
the low boost Kleemann S/C (0.4~0.5 bar) is efficient
than the hi-boost AMG blower by the outstanding I/C.

THe only thing that I am worried about right now is if I modify the supercharger or get the twin turbo setup will the auto in the FX be able to handle the power.

Indeed, most enthusiasts worry about the same exactly thing.
we DO NOT have a robust auto gearbox as AMG do, nor get the software (Speedshift) to protect it.

1) Ppl are talking of level-10 for different auto tranny enhencement
2) Manage the output, said,400 crank hp is about reliable.

Which one do you prefer ?

Do you know anyone in Taiwan that can do the level 10 mod, if so take me there.

From reading other threads its not too hard to do.

I am currently still considering stillen s/c since I am running their full exhaust right now.

Thanks

Will take some pics of the headers in a few days when I get my rims changed, its hard to see from the engine bay so I have to take pictures from the under carriage.

Also thinking about a plenum how about kinetics.
