Rkautowerks engine build

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to share my build with you guys. I unfortunately bent a rod in my motor back in June and decided to have the engine built by RKautowerks and some extra goodies added on. Here is what I currently have done to the car.

-CP Pistons
-Carillo Rods
-Re-built Heads
-Gtx3076r Hybrid Gen2 Turbos
-CSF Charge Coolers (Coated to match the Rotors)
-Rkautowerks Intake
-SSP Spec X Clutch Kit
-Snow Performance Meth Kit
-Meisterschaft Downpipes & Full Valvetronic Exhaust
-BC Forged 21inch Wheels

Couldn't be happier with the outcome!! Raza was great and easy to deal with along with the constant updates he made sure the whole build and install came out perfect! New motor currently has 1200 miles on it with a base tune running at 22psi and it feels GREAT! Gonna be turning up the boost to about 25-26psi in the next couple months when I get used to the power.

If you guys wanna keep track of the build you can see it on Instagram also M6_build.

Stunning car, perfect mods and insane power congratulations to an awesome build! May I ask the color code of the CSF charge coolers, they look amazing?

Congrats. Keep us updated with how the final tune looks power wise. Every build will come out different. I don't think we have many documented cars with those turbos though.

Looks like an awesome build. What's your estimated HP and TQ? Regarding the Turbo choice, what's the difference between them and Pure's??

CSF powder coated those for Rk so they would be the best people to contact for that.
