Sounds like you already have a plan, what kind of suggestions are you looking for? For engine management, I might check out element tunning

http://www.elementtuning.com/main.htm

I'd say learn to drive your car first before you start going all out on it. And if your gonna go with that huge turbo engine internals is a must. I know some people over here (Washington) that have blown their engine with that turbo. So just to be safe I would build a nice strong bottom end.

 

don't plan on doing too much driving with those injectors. between gas and the car payment your gonna have to live in your car.

 

cant agree more i have PE 800cc in my 2.0 and sadly enough a get 170-200 miles per tank, i do open it up once in awhile but gas is killing me. I would suggest an ECU program that will allow you to switch from "Dont F with me" to "Hey I get 400 per tank" hope everything goes well with your project!

 

act 6 puck is an over kill

 

lol...look at his location "Hawaii Kai"......I don't think money is a issue

j/k....IMO, go easy with the mods at first......take it little by little so that along the way, you can make a better judgement on which tuning path you want to take...... But........It always fun to slam everything on at once and have a MONSTER!!!

 

What you mean, "over kill" ????

 

Im with you on this...

Hydra Nemessis II

Cant go wrong~!!!!!! Pricey but worth it....

 

I would recommend get atleast rear axles from the www.thedriveshaftshop.com you will need them... Also a great boost controler,, Blitz ID III Elect. Boost Cont.
;;;;;;

If you havent done it yet,,,If you going big,,,be better off, with the 1000cc fuel injectors, and 2 walbro fuel pumps 255psi, and a fuel regulator,,,,, Thats what Im doing right now,,,

Good luck on your project,,,,post pics and clips,,,from start to finish on that Hawaii Kai AWD street beast!!!!

Thanks...

 

jajajaja,,, Good point,,,

But:
Back home I remember I used to work just for my car(rx7),,,and it has paid off(after 9yrs) its an 8 sec. car at 1/4mile,,,thanks to my little brodah, who continued that project,,,but anyways,, I would just have enough for gas and for racing,,, and that was the only thing I was worried about.

Now:
,,,, Well Im doing a similar / bigger project than he is, and I have taken everything in consideration, with my STI, and it will be painful in our pockets, but as long as we are happy and Im not putting the family at risk, due to all the cost of gas for the car,,, I'm happy, Fam. Happy, especially the wifey, will be happy,,, lol

thanks,,,just my 02.cents

 

^^^***Good advice***^^^

I would go with Forged internals, ie,,

Pistons, Rods, valves, and TGV deletes= $1700

 

and for all the good advice.. the answer is money isnt to much of a problem, ill prolly go smaller injectors with the 30r, an ecu so i can go back and forth between race and daily drive, and im going to slowly add stuff... do it in stages... yea kno!!!! and believe me i am getting used to driving my car.. late night, in open areas... wish the track was open tho... i could see how far i can take my car, where all i have to worry about hittin are some cones!!! thanx again guys, always a great help!!

CORY

see you on the 30th!

 

this is cordeezle06sti.. im signed in on my roomates i-club.. didnt even notice.. oops

 

Man I wish I had that problem. Not hate'in just jealous.

 

I don't see a downpipe anywhere on your list. You're going to want to free up two of those cats. Also, If you're going to upgrade to coilovers, there are better things out there than the Tein SSs.
