What have you done to your P5 today?

[ScratchNSniff]

Yea, it will be paid off way early...was supposed to have my last payment in March 2011, instead it will be here in the next few weeks...

ordered some cam gears a day or two ago. gonna have those installed hopefully next week with the jspec cams and a udp along with a new front caliper and brakes and rotors. and anyone know how the p5 would run with a msp ecu in the car without seeing boost. would it get crappy gas mileage. want to sell the mp3 ecu was wondering the problems id run into running the msp without the turbo in yet. id like to see if it actually works also.

You doing both cams...do they require cam gears...I want to get them eventually...

yes im doing both cams . they dont require cam gears. but my buddy at the shop said i might as well get them on at the same time and save the labor. so i got an adjustable set. was thinking of getting all that in...and then getting it tuned to see what i could get out of it without turbo. im sure my turbo plans wont be done for another few years. im a huge procrastinator. which is sad considering all the turbo stuff sits in the basement.

just got my retrofits in the mail. not sure when i'll have a chance to put them on since i'm gone this weekend and it's my brothers wedding next weekend. i may find some time somewhere or else it'll be another 2 weeks till they get put in.

i know this...but the car would run normal with it installed correct. i know i wont get any power out of it...just wondering if it would run differently without seeing any boost( like would gas mileage suck)

took care of some rust in the back passenger side tire well. sanded that down with some rust fix and then used black primer so it looks like black plastic.... no body will every know (^; still looking for racing hart center caps, getting my calipers powder coated gray, and replacing rusted rotors

do what...my cruise worked perfectly with a MSP ecu...

msp ecu on NA kills gas mileage. I ran one for a few weeks before I boosted

Finally got the damn wastegate actuator figured out. Turbo kit is almost complete.

took it to go get a haircut, and then went 178 km/h on the way home!

finished the oil cooler. =( Harder than I expected. lol

Saturday ill probably take off the IM and do the VTCS removal, port it and slap on the thermal spacers.

why would you lose cruise control... it works fine for me... although i don't use it and have it unplugged at the moment

 

[probin94]

Just agreed to sell the speed 3's. Should be gone by monday.... Sorry Alex.

 

[ScratchNSniff]

Dang...I guess I will have to find some local...at least have tires for some they pop up already...

 

[probin94]

I got what I wanted for them without the hassle of shipping.
