Sneak peek of the rs49

[Chadillac2000]

Mine just arrived today and all I can say is it looks awesome, so much bigger and heavier than my 16g. Looks awesome in the engine bay and bolted right up to my rnr dp. The polished housing looks incredible. here are some pics.

Looks real nice.
Definately will be waiting to see how it performs, especially in comparison to what you had. (Evo II right?)
Keep us posted.

Looks real good.

And in my personal experience of going from an Evo 3 to a 50 trim I gained .5 of a second and 2mph in the 1/4, I also had a boost leak with the 50 trim...

what about ass in the seat meter? could you feel a noticeable difference?

 

[Raph]

is that internally gated too? is it worth it getting one and using an external wastegate ( manifold mount) ?

i.e is it worth getting an external gate?im worried about it interferring with the PS or something..and it not looking stock.. (no officer..thats my egr valve..)


tell us how the install goes and make more pics! especially with fan clearance and all...

as far as fan clearance go, i had to take the drivers side fan out, I couldn't find any possible way to keep it, but its getting winter so ill invest in some slimlines before summer comes again. I also had to trim the passenger side fan.
