Michael (Phat) worked his magic and found the electrical fault and replaced a front O2 Sensor just waiting on an updated tune hopefully next week, it's good to just be able to use sports # mode again after several weeks of lights flashing at me. After a service it's holding oil again, i've been pretty lazy and didn't get around to installing the air/oil filter I did manage to get the rubber under skirt for the lip on which should save me from scraping



Slowly getting the more aggressive liberty feel and sound that i've been hunting for. Next on the list are some Side Strakes, Splash Guards (both in black) and Rain Visors. Along with some new STi decals as mine have faded, i'll go black over the grey text this time.

When are the power mods coming?!?

What are you talking about? They've already started

Phat GT Dump Pipe
K2 Full dual center pipe
K2 Titanium Spec-Neo
GFB Respons Blow Off Valve
Grimmspeed 3 port Boost Solenoid
Perrin Turbo Inlet

I'm talking about real power mods!

So you have an exhaust and a tune...let's get that ball rolling a bit more!

The car is amazing, just needs more power

[bigBADbenny]

Hold fast, he has head studs and gaskets, not a built bottom end.
The sane limit for the stock pistons, assuming its properly supported, would be... 200, 220?
More?

[blacktop™]

yeah but its been tuned by scott the guru

[Bezzza]

Ganadors are yummy
The K2gear exhaust is even yummier

By far the best sounding exhaust i've heard on the lib. They are an incredibly well designed system

Looking schmik Tom.

I would say it needs moarrrrrrree boost but considering my recent adventures then maybe not.

And it did sound tuff as you left my place last time.

100% agree there

Yeah love the sound, I don't want to push it too hard but 200 sounds like a nice number to aim for. Going back next week to get another tune now that the electrical fault is fixed. I figure i'll get a cold air intake done by G88 while that's being done. I've also ordered a new Tomioka throttle body hose as the current one has seen better days.

[Boostaddict]

What are these throttle body hoses you speak of.??

Dress up the engine bay.?

I suppose it's a bit of a dress up but mainly it's a better quality piece and creates a better connection, i had an issue with a weird sound on boost (was like a fart), found my top mount wasn't connected to the hose properly. Looked like it had started to collapse in on itself.

Biltz Cold Air Intake installed and another tune done by Scott I feel as though the cars running really sluggish now, is slow to accelerate and rough when shifting

Issue with MAF? Thoughts?

It'd explain the dyno result (167KW) :/

Dude thats not right!! Scotts a great tuner and should have gotten more out of it.

Did they scale the POD correctly??

Assuming so, phat did the intake. I'll have a chance to drive it properly tomorrow but i feel as though it's taken a step backwards it's certainly less responsive and isn't driving as well as before. S# feels as though i'm in S mode and been taken down a notch. Sad times

The Intake noise is damn loud, that'll take some time to grown on me

[blacktop™]

Is the pod enclosed?

My blitz def makes more noise than my old apexi pod setup.
