just suck it up and save for a s300, it will be worth it. dont waste money getting a tune on your ecu you have now and then having to do it again. its like 550-600 and well worth it. Have you ever seen how much s**t you can control with that? i love it

I would get an aeromotive fuel pump if i were u...

And the walbro comes in tank replacement or inline...

In tank will be fine for what u r planning...

And u need to run a good a/f gauge and a boost gauge and oil pressure also.

I agree with everyone on the hondata. Chipped ecus r just asking for trouble...

I have an aem uego also. Gauge is really cheap looking, but the system itself is awesome!

Definitely. If I were to go more boost I would definitely go 3 inch. I'll be putting that ES Tuning muffler on my Buddy Club so I HOPE it'll sound really good. And yes 255 for the Walboro. And whats the benefit of in-tank versus external? And I thought it only came in one style...



It probably doesn't. And I'm not loaded enough to run Hondata just yet :lol: I will be running an oil pressure and air/fuel gauge most likely with my boost gauge however. I would just feel more comfortable with them.
No real benefit to in-tank vs external. I don't know if they aren't making them, but they used to. It's been a while since I've built a car. The externals are obviously just easier to get to if something goes wrong.

Are you going to tune with Chrome then? I had a street tune with Chrome, and it scared the hell out of me tuning it (have to run the car hard as hell to get an accurate tuning. Had to do it like 4 times. I hated it). The tune was okay, though. I agree with everyone else. If I had kept the car loner, I would have invested in an s300. It's a lot more reliable, accurate, and flexible.
 

crash!

Pfffft. No way. Muffler is getting installed today. I'll see if I can post upa video of how it sounds.

Most likely it'll be chrome. I would like to invest in a stand-alone, but with the mild build I have it's not necessary.

Also ordered my wastegate. I found a brand new Precision 39 mm for $199. It's on it's way =)
