Installed the 27Won Street RMM, I hope I never have to do this again, getting engine side bolt past the front pipe is a huge PITA. Also removing the stock mount with the Perrin inserts was annoying too, the insert kept getting caught on a lip in the sub frame. Also couldn't get the torque wrench on the same bolt, so it's tightened almost as tight as I could get it with a wrench, could potentially be past 50 ft. lbs. (hopefully there is not a such thing as too tight on this...). Overall this change is to hopefully reduce some of the NVH from the Perrin inserts, really only an issue with the A/C on.

I went out for a drive around 5AM this morning to take advantage of no traffic and perfect 50 degree temps. It's ridiculous how good my car feels with cool temps like that. I was just feathering the throttle and the car was jumping. Then another drive later in the day and nearly 30 degrees warmer and the difference is big.

Everybody with a turbo needs to find a place that's 50 degrees year round for total driving happiness. :cool:
That's why I love living in the SF Bay Area, haha.

Digging the APR license plate piece. Been eyeing it and considering adding it to go with my seibon rear trim above it 🤔
Thanks! Matches my GAS deck lid nicely right? One thing about it - the area behind gets full of dirt and dust and is just a pain to keep clean. Were I to reinstall it, I’d put some 3m to stop some of that. The way it mounts is just by being held on with the license plate bolts

At the suggestion of @CanadiaegeanBlue, I'm giving the 27won strut bar with brake brace a try. Will get a run at autox tomorrow 💪
