Stock manifolds are awesome in terms of flow. A guys X110 in Sydney was producing 350kw's through the stock manifold.

Time for a largish update - my apologies for not having the chance to update my progress with [WAAA] lately as i've been quite busy with a little one coming soon.
- Got the car retuned by Soichi at ST-Hitec after being on the base tune for 2.5 years! Went from 306kw to 313kw at the wheels on 20psi however it had a 3 month old tank of 98 so it made alot of knocking and was dialled back. The next time on the dyno it should make at least 320kw with some fresh fuel.
- Matt Farah from The Smoking Tire flew over from the USA to do a review, videos coming soon. In short, he absolutely loved it and compared it to a 4 door supra with all the luxuries! I spent heaps of time with the crew showing them around Auckland and arranged a meet for them with over 500 cars in attendance.
- The serpentine belt started making a squeaky sound. I thought it was the PS pulley however replacing the belt to a Gates Racing one seemed to shut it up. If anyone also wants to do this, the part number is: 6PK1940R and they are about $80.
- New wheels for max baller status. Work Meister S1 (19x9 and 19x10) with 245/35/19 and 275/35/19's.
- Fitted some Vertex Carbon Under Canards (ex- Peter Deedmans Verossa) and re-fitted my carbon eyelids
- Sold my old LED retrofitted fog lights to Harri and converted a new set to HID, now my low beam, high beam and fogs are 35w 8K HID
- A few new other misc parts, Toms Oil Cap, Aluminium Overflow Tank, Rays Dura-max Wheel Nuts, Numberplate Tilt Bracket and fitted my american APEXi and Slammed Society numberplate surrounds.
No more spending for a wee while, next mod - Recaro Baby Seat

You're in the same boat as me now, my clutch hates me for running 19x10s with 275s. Can't even get into 3rd on the Hamptons skid pan without smelling burnt clutch!

What clutch are you running Dom? I'm going to get Neil from Autoclutch to build something custom for me using the existing Xtreme Clutch.
