I just purchased a few items, including an access port, however I'm still a bit confused on what map I should be running. Im going to doing the install this weekend so any input is appreciated.

Currently the car has a CBE and k&n drop in filter, but I purchased the UPIC/LICP and inlet tube. 93 Octane is plentiful.

Should I start with Stage 1 93 v400? If so, should I be running an inlet tube or drop in? what about the IC pipes?

Or should I just plan on getting a testpipe with the above mods and going stage 2?

I guess Im just unsure of what mods I have and if they are compatible with stage 1 and stage 2.

Thanks!

Everything should be fine on the stage 1 93 oct map, make sure to datalog. Keep an eye on knock, boost, LTFT and STFT. If you are knocking over 3 consistently at the same rpms, try the 91 oct map. Make sure you're not overboosting, if you do try the LWG maps. And make sure your LTFT and STFT are +/- 8%

 

Thanks Man.

Ill have a very similar setup to yours. How does your car run on the stage 2 beta maps?

Also out of curiosity, what car do you like more? Your sti or Evo? Noticed you have both.

 

Everything runs pretty good, i havent had any problems except for when i tried to use my ets intake with the cobb sf map. I swapped out for the cobb sf with turbo inlet and flashed stage 2. I was pretty surprised with the map, really woke up the car compared to stage 1, the torque was significantly better and the car just pulls so much harder and smoother. Im pretty satisfied with the v400 maps, ill be going for a protune this simmer hopefully.

I love both of my cars, the sti is more of a dd friendly. Theyre both stage 2, the sti has a pro tune while the evo is obviously on an ots tune. I cant say really which car i like more. Tgeyre both amazing
