Haha haven't I already told you what my plan is Tony? Switching to FMIC so that Phat can make a harbour bridge catch can where my TMIC used to be....and I mean the f***ing harbour bridge! :lol:

Nah but on a serious note when I get the turbo I'm gonna get SARD fuel pump, whichever injectors I get recommended and catch can.


You mean OCOTO-BONG catch can :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

don't forget the fuel regulator........... might as well go for an E85 tune while you’re there :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:


Haha no, I really mean the harbor bridge, imagine how unique that would be ;)

Fuel regulator? Explain?

And I've considered that but there are two places I can fill up from in my area and neither sell E85! Maybe if one of them starts to I'll consider it :)

With the aftermarket turbo and eventually a tune running increased boost It’s cheap insurance to maintain higher fuel pressure to feed your larger injectors and ensure that you don’t risk running lean.

The sard is a straight drop in, where the Wally requires mods to fit.

Ok so what's an example of a fuel regulator?

Spot on Gambit, that and Phat tells me to get it, so I get it :lol:

The fitting of the Walbro has a lot to be desired (its wedged into the holder from what I have seen) and also it’s a lot louder.

The Sards is a simple straight forward install and you can hardly hear it running.

I see a Sard regulator too, might just grab both the fuel pump and regulator!

PS I'm heading down to ProcessWest on Saturday so he can look at moving the brake line behind the silicon pipe :)

Mini-update...after some deliberation I've decided I want to get the zerosports grille (gunmental) and the k2 gear eyelids color matched to my car! Just waiting on Phat to get back to me :)

Then hopefully the K2 gear exhaust and a tune soon!

So I installed the underlip to the my STI lip. It's a rubber extension if you want to call it that that beefs up the look a bit, while also offering some protection as if you scrape on driveways it's the rubber part that gets scraped!!
