Big thanks to Edwin aka Fuji, Mark aka Vermont, and George aka Holy for the help with boost control on my rex, couldnt have done without you and you guys taught me alot.

So after logging my IDC is hitting only 58% in a 3rd gear pull. Can't wait for the tune.

That's enough power for you, lol.

 

[Z1107]

Sucks, not getting enough fuel.

 

[Z1107]

I wonder what I would I need to do to reach 300 whp, I mean with the tune Im shooting for 250-260, but maybe in another 6 months I know Im going to get the mod bug again, so what can I do to get a reliable 300.

 

[Vermont]

With Everything you will have on for this next tune dude you might be pretty close to 300hp. Depends on the dyno. I would say wait and see till after the tune before jumping the gun on more mods.

 

[Z1107]

Oh trust me I'm not doing anything power wise for a minute. I wanna do suspension work and tighten up the car now, just wondered what I could do six months from now.

 

[IGOTASTi]

Suspension is where its at. I saw stock STi's at the track with super suspension mods blowing away people with 500 HP STi's, lol.

If you can't control the power what good is it?

 

[Z1107]

Okay let me reiterate that after the tune it's going to be straight suspension mods. But if I want to get to 300whp what mods on top of what I've got would be good?

 

[Z1107]

So after some research and advice from you guys I'm holding off on the Cobb SF and ordering a HKS drop in dry filter.

 

[Z1107]

Scratch that, Perrin drop in.

Good boy.

 

[Z1107]

So excited, ordered my Perrin filter and RallyArmour mudflaps from Jordan, and about to place my order for a Gates timing belt from WRXPro. Also ordered a carbon fiber vortex generator. Can't wait till monday.

Gates timing belts are awesome.

I just ordered my carbon fiber alternator cover from AJ from WRXPRO. He has the hook up from Carbign Craft.

 

[Z1107]

Ordered the vortex generator from eBay on advice from highly reputable member of this site.

I want one, but down wanna drill.

 

[Z1107]

No drilling. Uses adhesive tape. Jordan said he pit one on his car no problems.
