Got some money in my pocket. I want a ECM controller, piggyback i guess.
APEXi or E-manage? Other? What all do i need? Harness?
I think i'm going for the angled 1/2" plenum spacer and UR Pulley set also.
That will leave me with around 550.00 cash for something else. I'm want to get the HKS True Dual Hi flow system later so i don't want any exhaust items. Any other items i'm missing for these items to work?
What other power mods with 550-600 yankee dollars? 3.5 or 3.9 final drive?
Little input will help thx.

 

3.9 would cost alot more than 500 bucks AFAIK

 

If you havent got them, I would get some high flow cats.

 

piggyback would be near to useless on a stock car. get the boltons done first then worry about tuning. i say this simply because if you tune the piggyback now, which will cost about 200-300, you will need a retune when you add more mods. all this for <10whp.

 

Tackett, yea, i've looked around and see that now. I can go 3.5 and get it done for that. I was hoping i can find one in a junk yard. probably not. I've seen the 3.5 for around 300.00 on here. Here in Al we don't have emmissions testing so HFC are not a problem. Crawford HFC? Best place for price?

Powertrip, i have the money and will need it later so, i figured i'd go ahead and pick one up. Won't i need to adjust the A/F ratio with a spacer/plenum, HFC and pulleys?
Plus, right now my ECU wants to run rich and is really inconsistant. So, i figured it would help.

 

you really dont need tuning until you do every possible bolt on i.e. headers, exh, pipes, plenum. or when you do cams. pulleys do nothing for your a/f ratio btw. and its ok to run rich, that is why you dont need to tune it till you have mods, it has a little safety built in from the factory.

 

send it to me!!

 

Find a good tailor?

 

Ok, i bought a UR Pulley and some Kinetix HFC.
Should i go with Borla headers or a Y-pipe?
From which do i stand to gain the most?
Better sound from headers or Y-pipe?
Thoughts?

 

If you want to lose power go with the headers. I read somewhere you will lose power with the borla headers. Go for the y-pipe or plenum/plenum spacer.

 

no one has ever lost power with a good set of headers

 

the borla headers were made to go along with there dual exhaust package so i would go with some dc sports headers ss

 

hell, resurrecting the dead aren't you guys? this was last years post.

 

I know. This is the fourth resurrected thread I've read this morning. At least people are searching, right?
