Alright I have...


CT Intake
CT Cat-Back Exhaust
CT Sway Bars
CT Front Strut Bar
H&R Sport Springs w/ Tokico Gas Shocks
Alpha Werks Headers
Unorthodox Racing Pulleys (crank, alt., p/s)
Thermoblock Spacers
Mugen Tstate/Fan Switch (to be installed)



coming soon:
CT Transmission Cooler
Cusco UnderBody Tie-Bar
Brembo Blank Rotors



What other bolt ons can I do that will make my rear end more stable and not break lose so easily?

I'm not looking to do a SuperCharger or a Turbo...

Maybe something to increase the HP or Torque...

 

HP and TQ? 3.5L upgrade. If you have experience in doing engine swaps, have the machine shop do the block and do the rest yourself. After all is said and done, you could get it done for under $3000 parts and machine shop labor.

??Remove TCS
??NO2
??SSR comps

 

I'm trying to do Mods at resonable costs haha... I was thinking NO2 cause ryan's been telling me to do it..

I'm trying not to do complete swaps or anything...

Remove TCS? what do you mean..


would something like bigger injectors help me out any? I wish we can do something like pistons and rods and stuff..

 

n20...... Removing the VSA is pointless. Just push the damn button when you don't want it on. Takes almost no extra effort to push it.

 

Gets rid of some of the air flow restriction (butterfly) and also helps to keep your incoming air a bit cooler. That damn thing gets HOT from all the coolant (hence TB thermoblok spacers and coolant bypass...)

 

i agree w/ ryan w/ the VSA... but I guess nitrous is whats next... Start saving my money...

 

you can remove the VSA and bore your TB and IM, this will help in HP department

i highly suggest lightweight wheels and good rubber, expensive, but make a big difference

though n2o will provide the best result i'm not a big fan of it

 

how much will it cost to bore my TB and IM?

 

king charges 150 and i think they quoted me at around the same price for the intake manifold

but some guys have done the intake manifold themselves, i'm using typeR's

 

What does it exactly mean to bore my TB and IM....

What kind of gains am I looking at?

no one knows for sure, i'll be on the dyno soon but i don't have any baseline prior to the install, i can say i noticed a difference in the top end power, the speedo jumps from 35-45 and 65-75 during shifts, didn't used to do that

 

some ppl say its a waste of money?

https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...highlight=bore

 

not if you finished reading the thread you posted? first guy said he only bored throttle body, its important to bore intake manifold. reason it may not show up on a dyno is because vsa hampers the intake. if you take that out i can assure gains.

 

i also believe theres gains to be had from a higher flowing cat, only dynos i have seen are from test pipes, just need to create the right amount of backpressure and you should gain hp/tq.

and personally i'm looking into a custom tune of unichip. then i don't think there is a single other bolton to be done. besides weight things like wheels, etc.

next on list would be 3.5 upgrade.

 

the 3.5 upgrade seems a bit too expensive... So I think after the things on my list I'll look into some wheels and bore my TB and IM

 

how about you buy back the shitty wheels you sold to chris.

 

Not the place nor the time...

 

 

stop following and just mind your own business. damn noob.

 

Save your money, I had my TB and VSA bored out by King Motorsports for $300 and then bored out the IM. No noticable gains on the dyno.

 

Take your own advice...

 

you know that friends stick together. and chris just happens to be one of mine. so it was mandatory for me to give you some crap. that is all.

 

I understand...

ur a good friend

 

Wow... I was thinking that was about to get really ugly!






Way to let it go though.

 

Why is it that every forum has to have one of you guys ... you know the "The sun shines out of my a*s" type of guy that thinks he rules the forum because he has been around for 12 months
Because someone has just registered on the forum and doesn't have 1000+ posts HERE doesn't automatically make them ignorant and inferior to you Mr. "Was a nooby 12 months ago".
I see people on this forum that have been around much longer than you pay alot more respect to the so called "noobs". Everyone contributes to this forum, not just you and the people that have more posts than you.

 

Shut up noob. j/k Welcome to the board.

 

Pleasure to be here , thanks.

 

:whocares:

 

Damn noobs

 

after a little rant like that, you cannot say the truth doesn't get to you.
it was coming to you after you made the remark in post #18. your "comment" was intended for the post i had made.
but with that aside, are you really 38? after those years, you should know by now that as long as you're around people, there is a order for pecking. no matter what or where you are. cope with it and you may enjoy this forum.

 

ok the thread as officially been hijacked!! shut this mother #@%* down!

 

The truth buddy is that I have enough experience on boards like this to know how things go. Many newbies here contribute more to the forum than you do and for that they should earn your respect.
Where I come from you earn respect by giving respect, you don't impose it thru your so called "pecking order".

 

yes. some do contribute well. unlike yourself. a real bang-up job so far.
whatever and welcome to the board.

 

I think my 3 yr anniversary is coming up for being on the board :-)

 

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! This is grrrrrreat!!

It's about time we've had another e-fight!

 

You're entitled to your perceptions and opinions, but on a better note and to let this bickering go, thanks for welcoming me on the board and looking forward to more positive discussions in the near future.

 

Chriskh ... I thought that you didn't care for this discussion ...

 

Don't start with me too,


It's fun to watch...

Besides, my little was because you come in here talking like your shit doesn't stink. Let me tell you something my good friend, it does and so does everyone elses, including mine. What makes you think anyone cares about your little "why does every forum have a guy like this" post. They don't, move on, let it go, give up, etc. If you don't lighten up a bit and find the humor in all of this you might want to find yourself another forum. But hey, if you really want to make some friends around here, you should go introduce yourself to all in a new "introduction" thread over in "Ramblings". Oh, here's a link for ya! https://acurazine.com/forums/ramblings-12/

Oh, and one more thing... it is YOU who is not contributing to this forum with your measly little attacking posts. And I don't know what everyone else thinks but personally, after only being here a year now, I feel I'm a hell of a contributor to the 2nd Gen CL forum as well as many, many other members including my man Sun Diego.

Chill bro, go introduce yourself in "Ramblings".

 

hehe. leave the newb alone. he knows what's up. chillax chris! i think there's someone else you should venting on...

 

Nah, thats all settled now.



Oh, Veeral, I forgot to mention in my last post but sorry for your thread, dude. Regardless, it did get
