Looks awesome dude. Loving the front end esp custom grill and ultrex lip.

Good luck with the mods should be a weapon once done.

I also see you have been on a similar path to me (move from a v8 to a subie turbs)

Must be a theme going on !

[JDGT05]

Little update, got my hands on a K&N panel filter. And got my tints done today as well. 20% all round except with darkest legal on the front. [img]http://tapatalk.com/mu/012bafb7-2480-9094.jpg[/img]

Ok a few updates to run guys!

Exhaust Has arrived, ended up going with an exhaust system from Rob at Ultrex performance in Perth




Dump pipe has been bought a PhatGT one, bought from a member here (thanks cruisn)



Centre Pods gauges are on there way here from over east, ones that fit in the cubby hole. (Will let you know how I go with the install)

K&N High flow panel filter has been fitted.

Clear light door inserts have been bought and are on there way also

A small little edition to the rear window repping the team!



Will let you know how I go with all this stuff once it's installed and will be posting a whole bunch of pics up!




Next on the list... Tune time

dude! you wont ever regret getting the ultrex exhaust I have been running the same system on mine for the last few weeks except with the new twin tip mufflers and they are excellent. Just had the phat dump put on today and its been the best upgrade so far. You going to allstar for the tune?

Yeah man that's the plan any reccomendations for the type of tune I should get. They recommended verso for me. How long did yours take to get tuned? Got the phat dump coming in the next week or so most of the bits are currently with couriers haha

[JDGT05]

Other question if anyone knows, is it safe to get my dump and exhaust installed and then drive to the place it's getting tuned?

[t.renshaw34]

You'll be fine mate , our ECU's are quite smart and reprograme themselfs to an extent.

If you where to do a whole heap of mods like... Intake, injectors, fuel pump, TMIC and TBE all at once.

Then you would want to get it tuned before you start stomping on it.

[JDGT05]

Cool! saved me a whole bunch of coin not getting it all done at the same place

Yeah most probably verso I would say. Mine is booked for the 21st of november and they're thaking the car for the whole day. Mainly cos its more practical for me being at work and such.

And yeah ive been running the cat back for a while without any dramas just the odd pop from the exhaust when changing gears which may have something to do with the blow off valve. the pop got more agressive since the dump went on so i'm hoping its not causing any damage.

[JDGT05]

Sounds good mate,

Ill have the dump pipe installed,full exhaust and the Panel Filter.

Then get the tune, most likely book mine exactly the same time area (right before WA cruise )

Do you know if they do electronic work also? I have some Pod Gauges that I was going to install but if I can get it done by someone proper I'd say that would be best.

[t.renshaw34]

Good idea to put the panel filter in as close to the tune as possible, as changing the intake without a tune can cause it to run rich.

[JDGT05]

how rich would it run :S in kms per tank terms, cause I was thinking of putting it in tonight, tune will probly be booked for in a couple of weeks time!

The intake will not increase your fuel consumption by any measurable amount. The only reason your fuel economy would go up is from having a happy foot once having it in!

[kennysti]

I think the whole combination of exhaust and the intake has made the factory rich tune more prominent. My fuel consumption has certainly gone up since these mods. I hope I will get some economy back after the tune but I probably wont notice for at least the first few weeks
