No idea how much of a drop, since I just set it up to fit the wheels that are on it now. I did have it slammed at one time but dragging the frame rails and the poor handling got old really quick...
5 spoke wheel really go well with mk3's for sure. I just wanted something different then whats normally put on these cars. :D
Yup I got a great deal on k-sports a few years back. Really nice to be able to adjust height to fit the tire/wheel combos just right.
Remove the alternator to change that lower bypass line. IMO its the only way to do it, took me 15 mins to chane mine out.
Also it doesnt need to be the factory molded hose. A straight piece of bulk 5/16 hose works perfect.
Ive had no problems with stock NPR's in my 7m. Shot peened rods and all ARP hardware. Made 343 whp at 13.4 psi on 60 trim CT26 with lex/550's last dyno.
Its now bumped up to 18psi with methanol injection, running maftpro speed density. Has to be an easy 400+ whp now. No issues so far, just...
If your doing the ignitor ground mod it would be good to run an external ground on the coil packs also :)
I did both of these and it greatly improved my idle and 2000 rpm miss.
Ugh cant wait to put this bitch on the track with the mikey thompson's. Put in straight C12 race fuel and ran 21 psi tonight. Didnt think I would be able to loose traction in 3rd gear at 130 km/h.. Gets the adrenalin flowing when it starts to shimmy at that kinda speed..

Restriction
A hell of a lot less restriction
Had to turn down the boost controller significantly after doing this. Hit 19psi on the first pull :D
Was just pulling air through the stock AFM/Intake pipe till I got around to making this up. Flow is...
Did some more screwing around with maftpro and data logging. Realized I was pretty limited by pump gas so I threw in some left over racefuel from my sled. Leaned out the fuel mapping even more to 11.5 - 12:1 and turned it up!
Worked my way up to 17psi and lost about every bit of traction in...
Managed to get the car running on maftpro with speed density. Seems to work not too bad with just base settings. Still working on getting tunerpro rt working with the maftpro box.
