up-grade
Bought my2000 classic 3 years ago.
Has scoobysport back box. ITG panel filter. Can anyone tell me what I could do next for it ? Thank You |
What do you want to achieve?
Best bet is a de-cat down pipe and centre section to match :) This should give you a little more noise aand a noticeable increase in power. Should alow the turbo to spoolup about 500 RPM earlier too :D:D |
De-cat is definately going to be the more cost effective for an easy gain in BHP/Torque.

When should i use instead of the ITG filter ?
|

|
Does anyone know if you can clean the ITG panel filter ?
Or if its too dirty would I have to buy a new one ? |

Jerry, I used to run an ITG in my 98 UK car - Power Engineering binned it when I was there a couple of weeks ago and replaced with K+N filter - (much cheaper to buy than the ITG too !). I think the 2000 car has the more susceptible MAF than the 98 too, so I'd take GMs advice and do the swap, before you end up with a blown 'un !
In terms of next mod, I'd agree with the above and go for a full de-cat (I did :D ) You could also look at SAMCO I/C hoses, for better flow and reliability, but you won't gain anywhere near the de-cat power benefits. I/C tilt kit is another cheap (<10 quid) mod for a smidge of power. Hope this helps, Mark PS_ should be OK to go with any of the above without worrying about ECU remaps - I'm assuming that you run Optimax ? - (if not, DO - no good improving the car and running on UL only) |
Optimax ? Is that the fuel additive you can buy ?
Or is it something else ? I use Super Unleaded Also are you talking about panel filters not induction kits ? |
Jerry - Panel filters-
Also, Optimax is Shells Super Unleaded, but its octane rating is quite high, providing that the fuel doesn't sit in your tank for a month ! (Basically, I think its shell ul with an additive, put in by Shell, rather than a true Super - but this actually makes it better at the pump, provided that the additive doesn't degrade whilst in your tank).... As I fill up 3-4 times a week, not an issue for me, but I think that you'll be OK on Esso SUL or Optimax IMHO..... Hope this helps, Mark |
I had a full Mongoose S/S turbo back exhaust system fitted last Friday and all i can say is wow... you wont regret having something like that do for sure. Also got an Apexi panel filter fitted but not sure about it i think i would have preferred a K+N.
Happy Scoobying A.N |

Here is a blantant plug for someone who can supply an intercooler tilt kit like the one mentioned by Mark Wild (ie me!) http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=206499 |
