im picking up a dp cat delete and cat back. also intake fmic and piping this week. i dont have enoff for a tune or reflash but i want to put on my new toys. good idea or bad idea. also will i notice anything without a tune. thanks

 

o and its a works 3 inch dp, hks carbon/ti catback, nisei fmic and piping, hks rs intake. o and what bov should i get.

 

Searching first isn't a possibility? There's been tons of threads about bolt on parts and how well they improve / hinder the car's performance without a custom tune.

Also, you won't want a BOV unless you go speed density.

I would certainly recommend tuning, since every mod you're talking about affects the air flow in and out of the engine. You probably won't blow your car up, but I wouldn't put a bunch of crap on your car if you don't have enoff to pay for the consequences.

 

i here you there i just wondering if i should only put on a few things and wait to do the rest when i can get it tuned or just put it al on and tune it when i have the green. like just put on the tbe and fmic and piping. yes no. good bad. notice anything.

 

That's a big disaster waiting to happen. You spent thousands of dollars on those parts and don't have enough for a $199 mail-in flash? I just wish people would get advice before spending all this money...

You don't even NEED that FMIC on the stock turbo, and you certainly don't want it without tunin. The exhaust is great, except that it's ridiculously expensive for no extra gain, but it will give you a gain for sure. The piping is just for looks, the intake only works with a tune and is ugly, and the FMIC is a beautiful/nice piece that needs a larger turbo or a ton more boost than you'll be running. You should quickly get at least a mail-in flash, but you also need boost control, which is another very inexpensive yet EXTREMELY IMPORTANT mod that should be bought well before half the stuff you already bought. For BOV, you should get a JDM MR DV, but my guess is you'll choose a Greddy Type S...just make sure you do the single spring mod.

 

yeah... if you HAVE to put something on your car NOW, then do the catback. That won't **** things up and you'll see a little gain. Tuning a stock car ALONE would be more of a gain, though... fude for thot...

 

oops i forgot i do have a boost controller. its the apex i . as for a mail in flash tho i was told not to really trust them and just have a full custom tune. and no i am not geting a type s id want what works thats all.
