What do you think of this set-up?

Stoptech Stage 2 Brake Kit
Bilstein PSS 9 Coilovers
TurboXS UTEC
Helix Upipe/Downpipe

Should I do anything different?

Thanks Evan

 

I think I might add an HKS SSQ BOV to the list too.

 

screw brakes..who needs to stop...go for the bigger tizurbo.

 

I will need brakes if I start doing auto-x

 

advan a032 or some other slicks

 

you are aware the BOV will not help performance and also will possibly hinder it.

Ben

 

and it puts you out of street touring in autocross and into modified

 

Ok take that off the list

 

Whats Better

A UTEC from TurboXS or a reflash from Vishnu? Or is there something even better to get.

Thanks,
Evan

 

It's not accurate to say that one is better than the other. They are both great products but appeal to people with different strategies.

UTEC:

* if you want to do tuning yourself
* if you want to have multiple maps for different gas/situations
* if your mods will change over time, requiring changes in your tune
* really requires the user to be familiar with how to use it
* NOT a set-and-forget solution

ECUtek reflash:

* if your mods will not change
* might leave a TINY amount of power on the table for the sake of safety
* if you are happy to have a stable tune that you can't change
* set-and-forget


Read in NASIOC Engine Management & Tuning forum, this topic has been covered HUNDREDS of times.

 

looks like my list, brakes are on the way, uppipe was ordered today, utec will be ordered probably tomorrow if i have time, downpipe has been in for over a year.
as for suspension, i'm gonna get KYB AGX struts and Prodrive springs, prob in the early summer.

BTW, i emailed stoptech to order different pads instead of the pads that are included, i'm getting EBC red pads instead.

Let me know when you get everything on. I would like to know how you like it. What kind of uppipe and downpipe are you getting?

 

i've had the Downpipe on for a year now, its an Invidia SS peice, it was beautiful, didn't even want to put it in my car it looked so good. But with only the downpipe i ran a 13.9 1/4 mile so it definetely gave some power people can feel. Also the turbo is so much louder.

I'll let ya know when i get the upipe (helix flex uppipe) and brakes, if you wanna come over and watch the installs you're more than welcome.
Utec won't be much to watch for an install, probably 20 minutes

 

Yah sure that would be cool, Then I will know how to put on my parts when I get them.

Hey, talk to Brett at morries. He has a txs stealthback that his is selling. I looked at it friday, and it is in good condition (already catless}). I think he wanted $500, but not 100% sure. The txs system uses a 4" downpipe to a 3" midpipe.

Is he just selling the Downpipe and midpipe or is he selling the full exhaust. And is that a good downpipe and midpipe.

Has anyone every got a ticket for not having any cats in there exhaust.

Thanks

 

Do you think it would work with my cat-back exhaust(Borla Hush)
