A clutch to start! It currently has a UMW 1.0 bar with wastegates and a stock clutch that can't hold the power. After I get a clutch sorted out, I am going to add diverter valves and an exhaust. It's already pretty fast for me, so I may leave it like that for a while as I work on suspension and wheels. After that, maybe upgrade the turbos!

Stock clutch not holding K16 power with just a tune? Seems odd. Congrats on the purchase! Great color.

It's a k24 tune if that makes a difference. Also I don't know that it's necessarily just due to being a stock clutch. I think it's the original with over 65k miles on it.

Ah yeah, that's my background too. B5 S4, 1st gen Talon, 2nd gen Talon love the AWD turbo cars.

You have the ultimate one now....
