STXfoo...where are you???cinci?? im in indiana at the moment..wont be home till2marrow. i would love to get together some time when it gets warmer... on my car i got simple mods.. BOV, boost gauge, and a MBC... any mods you guys would suggest to do first..please let me kno.. i want a scanmaster and new gauges first... and can some one get me a radio code..i have a 4 hour drive...with no radio....

StXFoo · 02-09-2008, 03:43 PM

Yeah, I am in Cincinnati. You can try calling a dealer with your VIN number to get your radio code. Since it is too late on Saturday and they probably aren't open on Sundays - your best bet might be to burn some cds or get an mp3 player to hook into that auxiliary line in on the radio.

In terms of mods - people tend to do the light weight crank pulley, downpipe/gutting the cats, exhaust. Then maybe looking into the plugs/wires for boosting higher with your boost controller - setting it around 12 to 14. Some people also look into putting in 450cc injectors while upping the boost (also hot wiring the fuel pump/getting a denso or supra fp at the same time). All of these would be your typical "bpu" mods.

For springs, I love my Tein S techs - allowed me to keep the factory ECS and still lowered the car to my liking. About an inch and a half all around - not too low, but I can barely stick a few fingers in the wheel gap.

For the wheels - I actually am running with the chrome Saleens 18x9s all around. Love em.

I also went with new leather - black with black suede inserts and VR4 stitched in the back rest - from leatherseats.com . They have group buys going on every now and again and I was able to install them myself. Was a good time for me (in learning) as well as taking apart my entire interior to put new carpet/headliner, and dynamatting all over.

Cianci's triple gauge pod is pretty solid - I would have installed this myself as well, I just got so busy that a bunch of mods got backed up on me. So I took it to IPS and they did a fantastic job for me on that, some prosport gauges, the Vertical Lift System (vertical door kit through deft), and some control arms to help with the camber problem that occurs when you lower the car.

Scan Master3 sounds good.

ECBC - I currently have an old old HKS that is doing the trick. I am planning on upgrading to the Greddy profec e01 in a bit. Just got to get a few new harnesses.

Headunit - do what you do. I like my panasonic that I've had for about 2 years now. Its got all the pre-amps for whenever I want to do the audio thing, plus a nice aux. port in the back so I've hooked up my ipod. Technically it is ipod+sat. ready, so I could just do that as well. My recommendation - go to a ccity or bbuy and just play around with them. See what will match the scheme for your car.

Dealers will never help you when it comes to aftermarket stuff. They will just rape you and give you oem-like stuff cause they don't make a lot of oem parts for our cars anymore.

havent seen anyone say it yet, but before you do ANY mod to the car. get a datalogger.
