Konrad Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Yes... I had to take off engine from lovely facelift NA to make place for this big bully!! First impression - you cannot take off your eye from speedo - once you try to have give it WOT in few sec you need to brake because bloody thing is just shifting like on 3rd gear even if it's already on 6! (and doing 130+ leptons on private track!). It feels like Supra would weight 300 kg Fun and adrenaline, although it's not that scary as I would expect - it's just very quick now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 You'll be wanting a stock air box and filter on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Congrats mate, it's quite a step eh? How much boost is it running now? You'll be wanting a stock air box and filter on that. He will want one, but won't be able to fit one with the FMIC pipe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konrad Posted July 3, 2008 Author Share Posted July 3, 2008 Congrats mate, it's quite a step eh? How much boost is it running now? He will want one, but won't be able to fit one with the FMIC pipe! It's stock for now, running 0.9 Bar. Yeah, there is no chance to put stock box because of pipe, I will build heatshield for Apexi cone, should be ok I did already started BPU - fuel pump is there, boost gauge/boost controller on the way from US (AEM Tru-boost), will get FCD later on, 1st decat pipe, colder spark plugs, AFR gauge, restriction ring ... Jeez I seriously need some overtime to do I will get there eventually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 It's stock for now, running 0.9 Bar. Cool, good to know you've not gone all out right away. It's best to get used to how the car performs with the big bhp jump, but also to make sure everything is working okay. Once you've got a few miles done and any issues are sorted (there will always be one or two ) you can think about BPU. Thats another massive jump in power and driveability so you have a lot to come yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
