velociTy Team Velocity Member 1,202 Member For: 20y 4m Gender: Male Location: Margs WA Posted 02/04/08 11:38 AM Share Posted 02/04/08 11:38 AM I have been running around with the Marangonis Mythos's (whats the plural of mythos??) for a couple of week now and im extremely impressed with the tyre. They are the first tires I've had that will hold 2nd gear full throttle and not break traction. Im running sans hardcover at the mo too so I imagine they would be even better with the extra 50kgs over the back end.If anybody in perth needs tyres I would recommend Derek at Ian Diffen TTF in WangaraHow much did they set you back ?

I want the cat and dump and go in for a retune but I dont know what set up to go for. I think the SMB 4' Dump and 5" cat is about $1500 fitted then add the $500 for a retune. Is this the best setup or can you have another setup for cheaper. I could get a rapid systems Hi Flow intercooler kit with cold air induction for $1600. I don't know too many options. I know what you mean. I wanted to get the stage 2 PW inter cooler kit, but Simon said there was no point in getting the kit if I had the stock dump and cat. But the budget, which got smashed anyway, couldn't stretch for both cat and dump and cooler set up, so I opted for the dump and cat and a stage 1 cooler kit. The problem is, that every time you want to add something you need to get a tune in most cases. Moral of the story, get as much on in one hit and then get the tune. But we all know that anyway....

Was he happy with that combo?Even just stage 1 and a cat would get you over 300rwkw yeh (with the usual injectors, f6 cai, pump etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
