Question

General thread on the result of your most recent upgrade...


Mine: Indulged on swopping the standard twin pea-shooter exhaust for the standard STi bb instead.
It actually did make a difference, even though I didn't go for something more exotic. Car feels more responsive and picks up just that little-bit quicker!

Oh, and changed the gear **** for a Momo Cobra. Could swear there was a few extra bhp cos of it!

last mod was to change center/backbox from Apexi N1 system to a Blitz Nur Spec R. With the bung it's not too bad, without, OMG!!! it's very loud! but I like it. good for setting off cheap car alarms, and sounds great in underground car parks!

Same as Buzzar and Raks on the BB My turbo spun up quicker with the Sti on, but I thought perhaps the old bb was past its best and restrictive.. perhaps not

And an ITG panel filter since then with seems to have made it pull like a cold morning all this time..

Supersprint downpipe fitted and Euctek3 custom remap done last Thursday by EMS here in Holland (MY99). Estimated horsecount now 250 - 260.

Wicked!

Engine flexibility much improved. Pulls strongly from under 2000 rpm and explodes as it hit max boost at 2800 or thereabouts. Revs cleanly and still accelerating strongly all the way to 6500+.
The full monty Tek3 is a few quid cheaper here too!
