Are you using boomba pcv valve with catch can hose?

Yes - the mishimoto catch can.

Thanks. Jackson forgot my Ecutek (not their fault) so I haven't been able to check for leaks.

Yup standard pulley and 94 octane, in Canada we can get 94 but the real octane is somewhere in between the 91 and 93 you guys in the US get :p overall pretty happy!
I'm used to the power now and am considering more but it's just so enjoyable as it is now so it's hard to justify going for more!

Does anyone know if there is a break-in period? I could have sworn I read something about keeping it under 4500 RPM for the first 100 miles, but now I can't find anything...

And is everyone changing their oil every 3 months /3000 miles (when not tracking)?

Thanks.

Yes, keep the RPMs down for the first 100 miles

Ecutek with custom tune

Does anyone know if a catted unequal length header such as the ft86speedfactory would work with the carb legal tune?

I see that these headers are oftentimes used on stock cars without tunes. It would be nice to get a header as a first step before I spring for the supercharger kit.

I would just install the JRSC with stock header and carb tune first. You might not care about a UEL header after that.

Only the stock headers work with the CARB tune.

Let us know when you're ready to order.

I was planning on a CARB tune for mine, but due to an error by FT86 Speedfactory I had to get a Delicious remote tune. It cost $1,125 (instead of $1,000 for the CARB tune) and gave me a lot more peace of mind. The guys from Delicious were great - overnighted an Ecutek, and did 3 sessions based on my logs. That took them 2 days total, and their base tune only needed minor changes (though I have very light mods, and a stock header).

But for an extra $125 you will get an excellent custom tune, unless, of course, you require a CARB tune...
