I plan on getting accesport before i get to far into mods. After i get my current issues taken care of, i plan on a down pipe, wideband and tune.

 

[Grinder34]

so are you not tuned at all now? With unknown injectors and no tune, that could be your whole problem.

 

[irishdave]

I just got the car about a month ago. Already in the condition as it sits. Part of the problem is that i don't know all thats been done to it. A trip to the shop should help out.

 

[irishdave]

Here are a couple pics from my phone.

 

[Grinder34]

looks good!

looks really good !

 

[irishdave]

Needs a bath but the weather has been crappy.

 

[irishdave]

I'll try and get some interior pics up as soon as i get some coffee in me lol.

 

[Grinder34]

I'd also love one more of the trunk. What kind of lip is that on it?

But i must say black wingless hawkeye STIs are pure sex!

 

[irishdave]

Blacked out interior, carpet and door panels.

I'm gonna be ordering a wideband and boost gauge today. Any thoughts on which is the best bang for the buck? Not trying to break the bank you know.

 

[Grinder34]

I dont know about different models, but we have a price quote forum. Post up what you're looking for and vendors will give you some good pricing. They'll probably tell you the cheapest one they have, or give you a few options at least.

Just wanted to make sure i got a good part. Was wondering if there was some i should steer clear of or if anyone had any bad experiences with any of them. I did post up in the quote forum though. Thanks for the heads up.

Welcome to the community!!!

Man! That's one good looking car. I use PLX as a wideband, personally. I know AEM seems to do pretty well. I use my phone as a boost gauge. Wouldn't tune with it, but that's what the AP is for. lol

 

[irishdave]

Well, the previously stated problems proved to be what i feared. Burned up #4 piston and spun a rob bearing. Not a good day. I guess i need to start my ramen diet lol.

That is sad.

 

[irishdave]

Yeah. Anyone had to do a rebuild recently? How much moolah do I need to save?
