I have no tune on my car currently, it is running all of these aftermarket parts with the stock tune settings. Can I change all of the stuff I can to stock and then change the intake to a different one. Which is best aftermarket? since I dont have a stock pipe. How much would a BOV be? Then get it tuned by dynoflash? Are stock injectors the best injectors or are there some others that would be better? What about spark plugs, or wires?

 

So you have an ECU+ installed, but it has absolutely no tune on it? If that's the case, then your car is surely running like ***, but that means you can put everything back to stock or close to stock without worry. Go ahead and do all that as quickly as you can.

You need these parts:

- Stock intake (entire thing, but mainly the MAF pipe section from the turbo to MAF - you must get this)
- Forge RS DV or JDM MR DV ($170 or $110, but the Forge is better)
- Stock injectors
- Stock spark plug wires
- NGK BPR7ES plugs gapped to .026

Do all that, then we'll get you flashed when I bring Dynoflash to town in the near future.

 

Thanks so much for all of the help. I am sorry for asking a bunch of questions I just have so many. Do you want me to change the fuel rail also. or can I leave the upgraded fuel rail. I am starting to learn how to use the ecu+, the only thing I am having problems with is doing the dyno run properly. If I could do the dyno run properly then I could start to tune the car a bit. Let me get the stock intake and the injectors installed and I will get back to you.

 

Well the dyno run really has nothing to do with the tuning. YOu don't need that to know how to tune. YOu need a wideband o2 and datalogger to show timing (ECU+ datalogs, right?). Based on the wideband AFRs and timing, that's how you tune...not by using the estimated dyno.

If you don't have the proper items or proper knowledge, then I suggest not messing with the tuning parameters. I guess you can keep the fuel rail - it's just too bad the original owner got suckered into buying it. Vivid is one of the most detested Evo shops in the country, but hopefully that fuel rail works fine.

 

you seriously dont need a BOV just get BC... but its up to you

 

No, he definitely needs a different BOV than the one he has currently - preferably not a stocker, since he's modded and running increased boost - and he already has a boost controller, so I'm not sure if you even read the thread or looked at his sig.

 

damn streetricer........im sorry you got this car with all these problems. i hope that this problems dont deter you from keeping it. once you get it all fixed (especially bov and intake and a proper flash) at the least then you will be satisfied im sure. i sent you a pm too asking about that ntercooler.

lataz

 

a bit touchy there warrtalon? and you right i didnt reag his sig did i need to? i just threw things out there and he doesnt need a BOV just find a stock intake and a mass air flow tip; thats all

 

but if he need a BOV he could look into the Agency Power BOV

 

I was thinking about getting headers. I was looking on Ebay and there seems to be some pretty nice ones there. Would it be wise to get new headers? are the headers sold on ebay good headers that will preform?

 

No, don't worry about headers. Get your car in good shape first, then just get your stock manifold ported and coated. The Ebay headers turn weird colors after they get hot (no longer look nice and shiny), and they are prone to cracking like most thin-walled tubular headers.

Yoo autie, he has to have a BOV to hold the increased boost, but it needs to be recirculating. No reason to mess with Agency Power.

 

You bought a ticking time bomb.
