one of the Bros keeps his plane in my hangar at the Ogden Airport so thats the connection. Mine has the SSS and Aero kit. I have added 50 watt HID driving lights next to the fogs. I replaced the false grill on the left side with a purchased right side one modified to be a mirror image.

Our company in Ogden Makes HID for aircraft both aftermarket and to Aircraft OEM's. We also sell to the military on 50 caliber machine guns.



nice

Cool, thanks. Any tips/tricks you run into while doing it would be appreciated.

Can't wait to get the cams and get them in. Was gonna start playing with the ECU based boost control, but guess I'll put that off until I get the cams in since I'll have to redo most of the tune anyway.

Ahh, it's easy.....just make small adjustments & keep a close eye on knock & afr. The best way to learn is jump in head first & do it. It sure isn't rocket science...don't let anybody bullsh!t you

There is also going to be MAJOR release of ecuflash soon!

It's the details (like A/C, alky injection, boost control, etc.)that can be tricky from one unit to another. That's what we are trying to figure out now with the ECU Flash Software.
What exactly are you trying to figure out on ecuflash?

Yup, 272's, the HKS ones. Found some for a really really good deal, though in the future I'm thinking I might go with the Kelford 272s with some new springs/retainers. So much for keeping this car stock... lol (guess I gave that up a while ago though)

I'm hoping it has a nice lope to it, though my exhaust is pretty quiet (bought it for just that reason ) My friggin intake is louder than my exhaust by a lot

I'll let you know how the boost control goes. I've done some logs with the JDM 3 bar, and I'm actually fairly impressed with the current boost curve. I thought it would be a lot worse than it is, but definately has some room to play.
