I have been thinking about my next mod and i need some input as far as what i am missing other than going forged to get the maximum power cause rite now with these mods i am at 220hp/200tq maybe more.
My mods are:
  • 440cc Wrx injectors
  • Hiboost FMIC
  • Turbo smart MBC
  • Unichip
  • Turbo smart BOV
  • Tein S Tech springs
  • Racing beat sway bars
  • Gauges(Boost, A/f and Oil pressure)
  • Greddy FATT
  • Injen CAI

In a month or so i am having a custom turbo back exhaust done.

I am thinking about these as next mods:
  • Fuel pump
  • Manifold
  • External wastegate
  • Tune
  • EGT Gauge

What am i missing?

well, get differnet gauges, and different lowering springs, and different swaybars... that oughta put you at 300hp easily.
 
About 10% more than you would get with a "Zoom - Zoom" sticker.

Please tell me you are joking...
 
i definatly am joking.

i find it highly annoying when someone says "heres my performance mods.. boost gauge, sway bar, and a japanese radiator cap/oil cap"
 
Don't bother with an external wastegate, on a T2series turbo its silly. I would port the stock intake and exhaust manifolds, install fuel pump, buy a wideband and EGT gauge then get retuned.. and hope the motor doesn't give out before you build it.
 
and how do you know you are at 220? did u dyno it? just curious. cause as of your post, you have a stock exhaust correct? if u do, i highly doubt you have 220 on a stock exhaust.

once you do the exhaust ,your turbo will be breathing a lot better so thats a good start

Im giving him 15 more than you did. hes at 200 to the wheels, dependent on how much boost hes running, and if his unichip is tuned for 440's. I still havent read a post where he said HE GOT IT TUNED for the 440's. If he didnt he prolly is running on 1 cylinder being that he is running so damn rich its blowing out the spark. Exhaust has got to go, downpipe, Make the car breathe better. And add some more stickers thats how the honda boys do it round herea!


EDIT: To be as clear as I can

Turbo smart BOV
Tein S Tech springs
Racing beat sway bars
Gauges(Boost, A/f and Oil pressure)
Greddy FATT

None of these listed above constitute a PERFORMANCE mod. Especially the stock sway bars, which most of us have.

I didnt see you are getting a new exhaust, make it turbo-back. The better your car breathes the better it runs. Fuel pump would be a good addition, also INTERNALS even tho they are not on your list, if you indeed are looking for 300whp which is DOUBLE stock. YOU WILL NEED INTERNALS, I REPEAT INTERNALS WILL BE NEEDED!!!

440 cc injectors dont ad performance either really. if he has an untuned unichip, the stockers would be just fine.
 
Right but if he had the 440's with a tuned unichip it would add performance, due to less timing being pulled and able to add more fuel. Im giving him the benefit of the doubt
