What to do?

[AWDthis]

Well I was just told Im going to be working some overtime next week so I need some suggestions on what to spend my money on! Basically here are my current mods:

Cork TP
Forge BPV
Injen CAI

So we are talking about under 500-600 shipped in expenses, my car is paid for this month!

definitely a dildo
more importantly, what do you want?
power?
handling?
a tune?
i would suggest a rear mount to start with, some shifter bushings...and then put the rest of the money toward whatever you want

 

[AWDthis]

Hilarius but I need something less practical

 

[phillyb]

lol, i edited my post...u can haz read it

 

[AWDthis]

lol, more powar now, handling i can deal with later, theres this 350z with around 350hp to the wheels I <s>want</s> need to beat
I was thinking of an AP with the combo Ken at PG is offering, the side engine mount + back motor mount? What ya think my gains be?

 

[phillyb]

0 whp if you go with the ap.
i couldn't resist that one. i have no idea. i have a standback...the new 103 maps have finally been released, but i don't trust cobble cobble cobble.

anyway...you want some power?
get a downpipe...definitely get a rear mount, you can upgrade the sides later...
and thrown an inlet on your intake
cs dp - 260 or some s***
inlet - 100-240 depending on whose you go with...
rear mount - 80-120 i suppose

 

[AWDthis]

I dont get the purpose of the inlet, I have a CAI already aint that enough in the breathing department?

 

[phillyb]

have you seen the stock inlet?
it's like a pancake...a new inlet will help air flow better to t3h turbo.

For some reason I dont think we are talking about this are we? http://siteground207.com/~protegeg/product_info.php?cPath=160_258&products_id=1537

 

[phillyb]

i'm talking about this - http://siteground207.com/~protegeg/product_info.php?cPath=160_258&products_id=1519

cpe is supposed to be coming out with one. cobb says eventually they are coming out with one.
atp makes one
midieval makes one
htp makes one

mcdonalds and burger king will be making inlets before you know it. seriously, everyone is making a turbo inlet these days. if bolt ons and not so serious tuning in the short term is what you seek, there is nothing wrong with the aforementioned modifications and the accessport. for most people, you'll be satisfied. if you want to go all out and really sink some time, effort, energy and money into it, there are better engine management options out there.

 

[AWDthis]

No for the 3 I just want some bolt ons, I plan on getting an MS6 or newer WRX and going all out with it, but still keeping the 3 btw how much HP am I looking at with the inlet ?

 

[phillyb]

one million if i recall correctly

 

[Captain KRM P5]

nice phil, nice

you will get more throttle response and spool from the inlet versus raw power. i would expect no more than 5 hp honestly, but the drivability aspect of the part is very nice.

 

[AWDthis]

lol, 5hp for $200 is nice, anyways got a week to think about it and hear more opinions, then Ken better be ready because its ordering time!

[Captain KRM P5]
