Cant wait to get back to RAC for another tuning day now Andy! hint hint
It made 290 hp and 422 Nm

Geez Dave, just imagine how it would go with a twin scroll 2.5XT

The good news is that ASG have just finished my new short motor assembly. The bad news is they cannot install it for another month dooooh. In the mean time I have started collecting some new supporting mods to go with it. The first lot arrived today from Daniel at Carmods who gave me a great deal on STI pitch mount and engine mounts, Killer B Oil Baffle and Oil Pickup.

Seriously - what's the difference between Sti and normal pitch mount?

As what Dave has said, but the rubber bushings/rubber inserts are a lot stronger than the oem one.
When I had mine out at Doug's last week, you could flex the oem one, but the group N pitch stopper was very hard to move with your hands.

They look identical except for the STI written on the pitch stopper.
