Default My 2005 Gunmetal IST

Hi guys, this is my 2005 ist. I share the same kit as bro fastercome. Did a whole lot to my car since i got it a couple of years back. Its currently in the workshop going through a twin charge project (super and turbo). Currently running only a turbo setup so wanted to try something different. hope you guys like the look of my ride! Cheers!

Singapore. Small little red dot on the map lol. Haha speaking of clean won the merit award for the cleanest and neatest ride in the local dress-up car competiton. Guess who is the grand champ. My fren's BB. For two years running two different BB are grandchampions. thanks for the compliment. hopefully all works out well with the new setup.

Nice car, very clean.

Are you putting a different engine in the car for the supercharger and turbo or staying with the stock block and changing the internals?

i am using stock block and maybe changing internals depends on how high boost i'm running. still currently experimenting. another 3 days till i find out the results lol. thanks for the compliments people. cheers!

Welcome!

Are you putting trying to modify two different kits to work together, or is each piece (turbo/super) fully custom?

yes its marketed as an Ist because it is an Ist ......... you ask what makes an Ist different from the xA? An Ist is Right Hand Drive and the xA is LHD...... the center consoles are also different .......



man o man I want a RHD car

thanks man. Yup Ist. the gearstick is like 180 sing which converts to ard 110USD. its by this brand called Levoc. due to our auto stick having an OD button this was the only stick i can change too. though my tuner has a momo stick he had to relocate the od button to the side of the steering wheel which i find abit inconvenient.
