So onto the Mod list.
Like i said the car originaly came stock, but not even 2 weeks after i brought her home, she went to MSPT for a Stage 2 tune. Which she stayed like that for about 8 months before i got the crack itch and needed more. I starting researching and for what i could afford at the time the FP green was the route for me. Before i even bought the turbo i got all the supporting mods i needed to get the most out of my combo. It started with injectors, bigger intake, FMIC, TGV deletes, 38mm EWG, and headers. As those parts shipped i talked to alot of vendors and finally settled on JSCspeed for the turbo, they hooked me up with everything i needed including all the gaskets i needed and oil feed line.
So now i have a shit ton of boxes in my garage and pissed off parents! I immediately got to work pulling all the old stuff out and putting the new stuff in. It took me about 3 months total to get everything ready to go. I worked during the day and had a 2nd job on friday's & saturdays as a bouncer for a bar in the area, so my time was limited. I would get home from work around 7pm, change and head straight into the garage, and work from around 730 to 3 or 4AM go sleep until about 530 get up for work and start the cycle again. The sundays after i woke from my coma i would work all day and through the night. When was all said and done i called up Dave brown from MSPT and scheduled a tune, I drove from upstate NY to Medford long island on a limp map, but i made it there no problems. When it was my time for the dyno they strapped the car down and dave did some tweeking and set the first warm up runs for 16 then 18lbs. car made a respectable 360whp 345wtq at 18lbs. Then when they turned the boost up to 21lbs they get on it and its sounding good, then POP! and my heart sunk. I thought the motor blew but thankfully it didnt. It was the gasket between the uppipe and the turbo blew out, so my tuning session was over. The car wouldnt hold boost so there wasnt much more to do. Now i had to drive it back home and order another gasket, dave preloaded the 18lbs map into my AP for when i fixed it. So after a week waiting for the gasket it finally came and i was back in business! I drove the car like this for about a year, and she ripped pretty good. Then the disaster happened that you see in my first posts. So after that was all fixed i saved up my money for another few goodies. I figured my power was good so lets go with some suspension upgrades along with some flashy wheels. i went with BC racing coilovers with from and rear camber plate, and rear extended dampeners. and 18x9.5 Rota Grids in gold Wrapped in 245/45/18 BFG g-force radials. Also i bought Kartboys entire lineup of drivetrain bushings and short shifter. also went with White lines sexy rear end kits and antilift kit.
Finally fast forward to fall 2010, the Crack itch came back and i need more power, so what else would a speed freak use to feed his addicting...METH!!! After a long debate with myself and many conversations later i decided to go else where for my tuning needs, I called up John @ akuma motorsports and asked what he could do for me. I dropped my car off a week later to him to have an aquamist HSF-3 kit installed w/ Spec C 12l tank, and a retune. also he fixed a few things that i was neglecting (like broken boost gauge, broken speed sensor, just to name a few) so now I'm hooked on meth! and now the car really boogies! its a complete night and day camparison. First off Johns tune is redic, I'm making awesome power. and the boost and power curves are like a work of art!. I couldnt be more happy.
