You know the hood doesn't look too shabby with the 5ad kit. Cool build.

How easy is it, just plug and play?

Not kidding. You can expect tgo get around a 20HP gain. The tune is safe. It's programmed by FA20 Club. Yes, you just plug and play. Comes with directions as well. I will be getting mine in the next week or 2. Will be able to tell you more then.

So I'm guessing you are paying for a license also, that is why it is soo expensive?

L3P47 04-14-2013 08:20 PM

The tune by itself is $300. The license and cable make it go through the roof.

That is just insane, lol....But I guess you are right, it is worth it to get any kind of gain without forced induction.

$15 for reserving the plate, not sure if it is different in other states.

You need to go through the department of revenue for the plates... they have a form you need to fill out to be able to reserve what you want on the plate. Where are you located?

You should come over and hang out with us sometime. I'm in St.Louis, and am apart of STLScion....We meet up quite regularly and have a blast. Our next meet is actually tonight, depending on the weather, we might just eat somewhere as a group.

Nice car! (: I was really looking forward or the video of your straight pipe, but it was set as private. ): May i ask, what the "Bigger part" of the exhaust is on the straight pipe? or is that just a muffler?

The bigger part in my exhaust is 3 1/2 piece of stainless pipe to come off as a muffler so that it passes inspection, no restrictions lol. I'll try to find out why it is set as private O.o

Hi from the other side of Missouri! Sometime this summer you should consider coming out for an IFO, HIN, or drift event on our side of the state :thumbsup:

I actually quite like the design of the hood (very Mazdaspeed 3), I just don't like the black/CF personally. I would love to see it color-matched red to the body.

Bumping this for a sexy car lol

If I had to change anything I'd paint the hood, and lower it. But it looks really good man.

Ahmeda 08-27-2013 08:22 AM

Looks really great man! I especially love that hood! Most likely gonna get it myself when I get the car! The one issue that's bothering me about it is when it rains? Does it have any rain guards inside or does all the rain simply go straight onto the engine? Would you mind lifting the hood and showing the bottom of it

Update, gutted the cat on the header, the thing sounds ridiculous now....Will post a video of the sound, but the true experience is in rl lol.... Yes it throws a check engine light code...but it does not affect the way the car runs to my knowledge.

There are no rain guards, but the water does not affect the engine whatsoever. I have not had a problem to this day.

Installed new headlights, Winjet smoked headlights. Love the look, only downfall is the runners only are on as runners, not with the headlights also. Only way to get them on with the headlights is to turn on the brights. There is a mod out there for about $40 to make it work with the headlights.Attachment 107112
