hey guys,

im thinking about purchasing an O/S TB and Gasket Kit, CAI Kit, FPR Kit. Larger mods later on, but thats not what im here to talk about, i know i wont get gains, but it is there to support later mods, my question is will i need a piggy back for these mods, i will be purchasing one later on for larger mods, but im hoping i wont need it at the moment due to not having the funds at the moment :(

thanx peeps

mike

you shouldnt need one for those mods
whats a FPR kit?

Fuel Pressure Regulator Kit

I doubt you will notice any power increase at all, and if there is any, its not worth the money.

Ditto. FPR = waste of $$$.

go CAI with tuned length extractors then save for an Adaptronic (full EMS at the price of a piggyback, only fools go e-manage) cams then chemical supercharging! (n2o)..

will i need it to be tuned though?

For an aftermarket ECS, hell yes.

ok i am gettting it tuned, just waiting from reply from supplier for mods.by mid next year i hope to have 170kw ATW once all mods have been done, i have three stages, lol that sounds so stupid.

i am assuming you are going some form of turbo/supercharger to get to 170kw at the treads?

No getting a manual conversion + a heap of N/A mods (eg: cams), this is the path i wanna go.

Whats you budget/limit?

I'd be Pming either EGO or cthulhu about going all out on N/A mods. Its not very cheap.

it must be a fair few mods to pick up 50-60HP

if you want the list of mods send me a PM, but my budget is 6G, over the next 9 months these mods will be installed.

Edit: sorry thats ignoring the manual conversion, i am constantly looking for someone to do it at a good price for me.

you could import, engine heads from japan, the 6g72 did come out with DOHC and also MIVEC

Heads and block would be different, Would need the whole engine

good luck with those figures n/a at that budget. you may need a little more. Just installing cams cam gears a piggyback and tuned will set ya back close to 3 grand and ya wanna install the manual box first if you are getting big cams. cam profiles will also be different for manuals to autos.

RPW told me that i wouldnt have to change my cams if i got my manual conversion later on.

I know this is going to be quite a bit of work, but im willing, and i know its going to be a slow process, but i know i can draw the power out of my car, all i need is someone to do my manual conversion for minimal wage, RPW are going to supply all my parts, have given me a list of mods, and all i have to do is save my money.

I know Dave knows what he is talking about. I would be thinking he is allowing for the conversion when setting your mods profile by installing manual profile cams. What stage are you going?

stage 1 cams and cam gears
