My Fi Exhaust finally came in and is on the car(CBE). Absolutely LOVE it! (Considering the DP at a later point). Videos aren't coming up at the moment, I'll have a few for sound clips posted shortly!
Huge shoutout to Blacklist Motorsports and Fi Exhaust for making this possible!
Love all the information zrk! Stock frame hybrid approach probably would be the easiest path here huh ? You have many solid points here and this project would be way down the road, so I haven't even begun diving down that rabbit hole of research yet ? My tuner would definitely be Jesse DaBears...
For now, I'm sticking with the oem dp and using the JB4 piggyback bc it leaves no trace, vs a flash. After my powertrain warranty is up, I'll likely go hfdp, forged pistons, big turbo, upgraded fp and injectors, alongside a Pro flash tune. (Note: For those just doing the same as me, and...
Wanted to post some updates to our build! I've got a few sponsors now (Armaspeed, Blacklist Motorsports, Wickedly Boosted and TheRevRepublic) and quite a few more in negotiation ;b
Back to the show (for those that watch Donut Media, LOL)
Armaspeed Carbon Fiber CAI: @ARMASPEED
Spot on, Jesse helped me get my timing absolutely perfect. Car is super happy now (powerband is fantastic with some impressive top end now) and no doubt properly quick at this point (very close to stock 3.0 performance. but much lighter and agile through the twisties). It's perfect for me!
Go for it! I went up to 19s and a 40 profile (for a beefier look and because I'm not slamming this car). I'm done with the rubber bands after the Type-R, LOL. No scrubbing whatsoever, I love the fitment. Same 255 and 275 combo. I'm going to need 295s or 305s soon though. My E30 tune rips...
Yes sir! The JB4 gives a nice bump over the stock tune with their OTS maps and then Jesse DaBears worked really hard with me on a custom 93 and E30 map (timing and boost are just PERFECT). I also swapped the stock wheels for some Gram Lights, Firehawk Indy 500 tires and recently added the...
My pleasure bud! For exhaust, I'm still undecided. The Fi looks and sounds awesome, but it's pricey. Not sure if I'll upgrade the dp, especially with so much randomness in how some people get CELs and others never zero issues. I can clear codes with my JB4 of course, but if it did it all the...
I couldn't find anything on this either, so I went to my muffler shop and had them do this. Definitely more tone in Sport and much more pops at 4k and above. ;b Normal mode sounds identical to me.
Zero drone, as with the stock setup. For $60 bucks, this is a no-brainer in my book. I will...
Thanks so much! Videos don't do it justice. It really does sound wicked, both outside the car and inside while driving. Cosmetically I don't think anyone else touches this intake either =)
As soon as Armaspeed's CAI for the MKV was announced, I knew I had to get it. Their carbon fiber models are simply gorgeous and after confirming this was available for the B48, I contacted them immediately. Even with this coming over seas, it arrived very swiftly (around 1 week or less)...
Hi guys! I just heard this today and it was only for a few minutes at a time, mostly at park or idle. Best way to describe it, is it sounds like someone is underneath the the rear of the car and lightly thumping it with a rubber mallet. Really strange...figured someone on here might have...
Just got this intake in as well. Actually working with Armaspeed on this one. I'll be posting pics and impressions as well next week! Love your build here ;b
