Just bought my 2003.5 MSP

[Damien]

Thought id say hi to everyone. Im owner of a new 2003.5 Yellow MSP. I drove it all lastnight and didnt sleep, its addicting, I love it.

A few things i did notice was bad hessitation after about 4500 rpm, going over bumps sucks, the suspension is really stiff and the shifter, it seems to have a bit of play and moves around while in gear.

Mods i plan to do: FMIC, Hardpipes, BOV, Gauges & Pillar, CAI, Turboback Exhaust and Turbo Timer.

Anyways, great site going here.
Im off to bed now.

Raise the boost, and get the new 156E bushings.
That fixes the 2 worst issues with the MSP, hesitation and clunk.

Enjoy the car.

Aye another yellow MSP! Ewwwwwwwwwww! Welcome aboard! You may also want to flash your ECU for the hesitation, depending on what you want to do with the car or you may not. I notice you want to mod it like crazy . Do some searches on the "flash" and the mods you are planning to do. It will help your decisions immensely. Good Luck!

I think mine make it look like a rally car

But that could just be me making excuses for my ugly ass steelies.

 

[jersey_emt]

Yeah, I've made that excuse to myself more than once...lol

Clean them ugly back steelies and put a yellow pinstripe around the rim... NASCAR here we come!

Welcome to the board! Hey if you want that suspenstion to feel a little less stiff put come 16's or 15's on there with big baloony sidewall snow tires LOL! A reverse modification!
