Get paid to help someone.

custom from an exhaust shop. buy a decent HKS muffler from ebay or somewhere online, and have the piping made at an exhaust shop for like 100-200 dollars. you wont notice a difference in power between that and some ******* ridiculous priced exhausts like iON (1300+ dollars). yea, over time the stainless exhausts will last longer, but ive had cheap wleded exhaust for about 1 1/2 years, no problems. even if you had to replace the WHOLE exhaust once, you would still save money.

just my opinion though.

Welcome to the boards.

I would love to help you with your IC install along with Matthew and others up here, but there are plenty of knowledgeable so-cal members that I am sure would give you a hand and you don't have to drive so far :)

Hope you stick around!

Hey I might not have enough time this month.
But I think I could host a install party some time next month.
My mother in law's house is in a church. I can talk to them to let us use the church parking lot for a day or 2. We can have a party there.
 
lol
that would be cool!
if u want to come out to the coming up install party, we can do your boost and A/F gauges.
it's a good idea to have your boost gauge installed before your other mods so that you can observe how the car behaves in its stock form.

then u can compare it to higher boost.

i would recommend doing the boost controller last.
do FMIC and exhaust first, it is much safer that way.

your boost will go up 1 psi with FMIC and 1 psi with exhaust.
 
Dr.sound and 1fastmp5 or 1stmsp5( idont remember the screename:) the dude with the 13 second wagon and the low 13 second rental car lol ) im gonna need ur help pretty soon when MAM ships my FMIC. the install is gonna be a lil pita cuz im gonna have to replace the fans and im on the preorder list(kind of like a guinea pig:)) maybe ca deal1 and i can have a fmic install party ... i live in burbank and work like 10 minutes away from cal deal1 .

Hey is there anyway you can take a look at the boost controller I bought(used) I want to know what parts are missing and what I need to get.
I am free today all day.
If you could give me a call 818-994-7317. Let's have a drink.
 
Come out tonight. We are having a car meet for everyone. It's a regular thing in Granada Hills area. We meet at Starbucks on Reseda and Devonshire, we are all a bunch of cool people that hang out and actually talk about cars.

Not the douche bags who burn out, or run around trying to find as much retarded and non effective mods for their cars as possible.

You should come out, there are about 3-5 other MSP's that meet there, and about 5-7 other RX7's that hang out also.

If you need more info I'll PM you my Cell #.
 
btw, it's greg @ genes's muffler.:D ca_deal1- just bring your msp to the next install party and we will get you hooked up. i can do ANYTHING on a protege.... (guitar)
