RG is now offering main girdles for the 6bolt DSM's

these prevent your main caps from moving under high boost or rpm which can lead to engine failure.


$120/pair + hst  Shocked



EDIT:  Girdles will now be laser stenciled with the RG logo




dont let this happen to you!

no fuel, rpm, or boost log. "It can't be done" Tune by luck! Lol

I don't get upset but when someone talks like they know everything and when you put a statement like this turbo spools at this rpm your kidding yourself on a car making 600-1100whp. It can't be done.

That looks thicker than my Kiggly one! Too bad you didn't have these about a year ago.

any point in putting these on a motor with no other internal mods as of yet?  Motor is still out of car, so would be really easy to add these to it right now.

could also just go ahead and put in the lifters that I have as well - why not.

do it now, if the engine is apart.

I would have put it in there when I had my oil pan off for sure.

Not apart but out of car and on engine stand so could be installed very easily - am I going to need new fasteners for the caps due to the thickness of the girdle? And Andrew, when is RG open until since I'll have to get out there from Abby.
