Ok, I didn't think I was going to do one of these, but its a rainy day and i'm bored. Plus, I am starting to get some of the parts in for my FRS and getting it ready for spring, so I thought this would be a great place to show you guys the progress instead of opening a thousand threads
I will apologize in advance for the photos. I mostly have cell pics for the moment, but I promise I will get some better shots once the weather gets better.
Lets see, I purchased it on June 4th with 150 miles on it.
First I got a base line dyno done around 1200 miles to see what kind numbers I was starting with.
Next came the very first mod. I went with the Ecutek tune by Visconti and currently running the 93 pumpgas tune. Now, this was the very first version of that tune, I think I am on version 4 now???
After the tune, came the AFE intake and Perrin crank pulley.
Today, 3/9, my exhaust finally came in and got that installed tonight. I ended up going with the Tsudo header back. I absolutely love it! For me, it is the perfect sound. Its pretty deep, but very subtle. No drone at all, especially when you are just cruising at normal throttle, but just the right tone under heavier acceleration. Plus, its a nice clean look. At $600 shipped for a header back, I couldn't beat it.
This Tuesday I am heading up to Fullblown to have my Hotchkis lowering springs installed. I will post pictures after it's complete. I also have sitting in my garage a set of Mach-V Awesome's 17x9 in gunmetal which I am waiting for the snow to melt to install. I am extremely giddy to get these on and see how they look on the asphalt. I still need tires, so if anyone has recommendations pass them on. Thats it for now!
