Which uppipe/ewg did you get? That pricing isn't bad depending on what you got. I'm not trying to push a sale on you by any means at all, we just like to take care of our customers as best we can.
I got an Ultimate Racing Uppipe with the EWG and Dumptube and the Tial 38mm WG and he claims everything is brand new.
No I definitely understand and appreciate the help. I was going to go with a Grimmspeed up pipe but the deal was to be had for me.
I can tell you I will absolutely be going equal length myself. The consensus through everyone I know and personally experience with installations/power made/drive-ability seems to be this: EL > UEL > Stock. There's a lot involved when making a manifold, but since you already have a full invidia setup (provided you got a 2 bolt uppipe) I would say the Invidia race is the best EL for you because it will bolt in with no issues at all. An EL isn't quite as "torquey" as an UEL, but it does result in faster spool and a broader powerband in addition to more power. One of the main reasons people don't use an EL aftermarket manifold is that it changes the signature "boxer rumble".
I'm not saying UEL is in any way bad or that nice power can't be made because it definitely can, I just prefer EL myself. I highly suggest reading up on it and thinking about it a bit more, then when you think you're ready talk to Justin since he's the one tuning the car. When you are ready I can get whatever you need.
Ok, thanks for the tips. Im not even sure if I will be able to afford the headers anytime soon. But I will look into it and see if it is something that I want to go with.
That Scott is the shop owner, I'm actually in NJ at the moment waiting on house paperwork to finalize before I can be in Orlando. If the AP is something you don't think you can/would use, then no sense keeping it. I know I log my car all the time, so for me it's very useful.
I just use my car as a DD for now, and Im unsure of whether I want to be tracking/racing. But its something to consider. With that said, Idk if I care to log data, rather than just have a beefed up DD
I plan on tinting the car really dark all around, with the clear bluish tint on the windshield.
Nice call.
What I did was:
5% all around
50% on windshield, just regular tint
and a Fat sports strip at the top with 5% as well.
Something to consider, you might want to go with 20% on the rear window. Its Dark as fuck! I can't really see out at night. And you should still have the same darkness inside the car. But thats all personal preference
In the end, it's all in the tune and I know Justin will put in the time and effort to make your car a beast. When you're ready for the injectors/pump just send an email to
Sales@PunisherPerformanceandTuning.com :tup:
Definitely, Justin was a great guy, real easy to talk to and get along with. Seems to know his stuff.
You think injectors would be worth it for me if Im doing the EWG set up?
They are expensive and I'm sure I would see more gains with them, but Im just trying to justify them with my budget!
The fuel pump isn't too expensive, so that is something I can take care of. How would you rate that on a scale of importance?
--I appreciate all the help and answering my noob questions!
Ive been reading and researching a lot. Just want everyones opinions! So I can make a nice, small build
