Mohammed_A Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 I am a bit over BPU+,and was wondering what modification's need to be done in order to gain more power.ie, this is my current spec.. HKS drager HKS SSQV BOV HKS boost controller BLITZ de-cat BLITZ SUS induction ARC FMIC type S TOMEI 1 fuel pump APEXi s-afc So, what else would you lot advise in order to get that bit more out of the ceramic sequential setup,without drastic changes? All comment's are well appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark D Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 As a newbie I know that I would love for someone to go through that list and explain what each mod does and how it does it. Come on guys, I'm sure I'm not the only one who doesn't know what all of them do. (In particular the afc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 HKS drager - Big ass pipe HKS SSQV BOV - Makes loud wooshy noises HKS boost controller - Makes car go faster BLITZ de-cat - Makes car louder BLITZ SUS induction - Makes more wooshy noises ARC FMIC type S - Cools stuff down TOMEI 1 fuel pump - pumps optimax around APEXi s-afc - trims fuelling down (not really needed unless running larger injectors I think) What to do next? Get EGT gauge if you haven't already... Then hybrids and bigger injectors, or maybe cams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mohammed_A Posted January 16, 2003 Author Share Posted January 16, 2003 Exuse my dumbness, but what are egt's(is it exhaust gas temprature gauge)and what do they do.I don't really want to change the turbo's, I want to see what an stock turbo car's limit is. Cams gears? Would it be worth putting them on,what sort of gain's do these give? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorin Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 EGT=Exhaust Gas Temperature. Cam's and cam gears are different things. The cam's will cost you ~£350 each (you need 2). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All comment's are well appreciated. Get rid of the 1st cat, nearest the engine. Think about adding water injection, or using a more efficient intercooler. Chances are your stock one has lost a lot of its finning due to corrosion, if the fins are flaking off the tubes its efficiency will be terribly poor. Caveat, I supply WI kits (ERL Aquamist system 1s for 290 pounds, and modern better spec stock mount all ali intercoolers for around 500 pounds.

eyefi Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 1st cat out and sort yr suspension, clutch / torque conv?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mohammed_A Posted January 17, 2003 Author Share Posted January 17, 2003 Already have a big FM intercooler with tein type ha suspension. I though the 1st cat couldn't be taken out due to it affecting fueling value's or something to do with the ecu,also would overboost. Sorry, I forgot its Jspec!

Gordon F Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 Hi Mohammed Welcome to the forum. My previous post was not directed towards you, more of an 'in joke'.(you will realise soon enough!) Although there is a faq facility on the forum, this cannot cater for all quieries that regularly appear here. Usually, if someone has a technical problem, it will have been covered before, so the search facility will normally provide answers to most questions. However, please feel free to prove me wrong!! Enjoy your MKiv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
