Just get it running in tip top shape, there's still a lot of other unique things you can do. Take a look at what other members are doing as a guide to formulate your own ideas. Best of luck and I hope you post some pics soon.

 

You can see my mods tht I'm doing and will do . They are on my other thread.

 

It's not a fast car but hey you can make it look nice. Embrace the slowness

 

Yeah relized it was kinda slow but I'm turboing it so that should def. give me the gain I want

 

Any advice on an exhaust for a stock 2002 OZ Rally? I obviously want the deepest sound possible. All that is aftermarket is the cool air intake.
Also I don't have a bunch of money clearly I would be driving an evo if I did. I'm looking under 300. Thanks

 

Get a catback exhaust . Go with a SRS catback exhaust or a Megan racing catback exhaust

 

Since you have an automatic i'd suggest using an evo ecu as opposed to using a piggyback for tuning which would be cheaper anyway. Also look into a trans cooler. Have you thought about a turbo setup yet?

 

Yup I have thought about a Turbo set up I know everything I need . I just have to acquire the mula! Lol and what is a trans cooler ? Also I've been thinking I might do some more visual mods first because my cars looking roughhh.

 

I saw an evo 8 ECU for like 50 bucks on ebay should I buy it ?

 

Don't you buy no damned evo ecu. People need to research first!

Download the rom and flash it on your ecu, most people buy the tactrix cable and will flash it on themselves with openecu but if you don't want to get the cable you can probably get the download for a shop and they could flash it on then start tuning. I would strongly suggest getting it professionly tuned it may be more money but it takes a lot of time learning how to do it yourself and your probably going to get more horsepower from a shop that knows what their doing. Etherway if you buy a evo ecu or use the stock one with a evo rom both are going to have to be tuned

 

Thanks . Btw I'm not running turbo yet would I still see a little hp gain ?

 

Depends on how good you get your tune. From the factory, the 4G94 produces a lot of knock. If you can eliminate that, and manage to get some timing advance, you could very well see some hp increases. Also, if you're doing a reflash, you can swap to a 399 MAF.

 

I thought the auto ecu's weren't reflashable at least that's what i read somewhere in one of the threads on this site which is why i mentioned getting an evo ecu. A trans cooler keeps the transmission from overheating which would be a good idea for you to run do to the extra load it'll have once you go FI.

 

Okay . Do you know an avg price for that ?
