how should i tune my car to accept the open filter? or will it automatically accept the extra air flow? i have ecuflash of course and i have mitsuscan w/ maptracer...thanks for helping!!!

car is stock...just adding open filter, boost gauge, shifter bushings...

 

bump

 

Log the car and see what its doing now?

 

sounds good...ill do that but since im already connecting the car to my laptop i want to change some stuff w/ ecuflash...i just want to know what do i need to do "generally" in order for my car to accept the open filter...and the question hasnt been answered yet...will my evo accept the extra air flow? or will it thow a cel? or other things?

 

you wont throw a CEL, but extra air will make it run leaner.....

 

im still a newb and im gonna guess that thats a bad thing...
good news about the cel though...thanks for posting!...im planning on installing the filter on friday...along with the other mods...then order my Forge MBC...later on ill get a tbe system and get a ttp tune by mail...

 

bumppppp...

 

so your removing the stock airbox?

if so I wouldn't bother, just get a better panel filter.

Its been shown that the stock airbox is pretty good.

 

What filter is it?

My BR filter and pipe kit practically left fuel tune unchanged minus having to tune for higher loads. All the extra air changed the way i had to approach the timing of the car :P.

A member i was trying to help out here with an HKS suction unit read normally up to a point like 5500rpms and then the airflow would skew way off and read abnormally high throwing the fuel and timing curves for a massive loop

Just a heads up

 

no pipe...just the open element filter...i got the blitz filter...and the MAS adapter...gonna just bolt it up...

 

I hope it comes with a bracket the stock rubber isn't very stiff and tends to move a lot. Shouldn't be too hard to fab a simple one if you need to

 

thanks for the tip! i think ill make something with some zipties and stuff...that way i keep the filter in place...

 

back to the top!!!

 

Don't ghetto Rig it though...

 

I am with tephra on this one.
