ShockerGT Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Don't waste your money on the CAI and catback. Get an uppipe, downpipe and AccessPort. From their figures, you'll be at 305bhp and 345tq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustang killer Posted March 17, 2007 Author Share Posted March 17, 2007 ight thanks! after this i think im gonna have to go with a cobb cat-less downpipe and cobb turbo up pipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukindada Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Tranny Cooler Accessport DP & UP Your UP & DP selection are nice one's, it is what I am using other than I have a catted DP After that round of modding you are going to want to upgrade the suspension with @ least a good quality set of springs. Otherwise acceleration squat really hurts acceleration Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang killer Posted March 17, 2007 Author Share Posted March 17, 2007 good sh** good sh**. are installation prices pretty reasonable for those mods or do u do it urself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang killer Posted March 17, 2007 Author Share Posted March 17, 2007 also, what would make more sense to buy first, accessport, or the DP and UP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShockerGT Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Buy them all together, but if you can only choose between the accessport or the UP/DP, then get the AP first over the UP/DP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgemar Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Do some reasearch on this site.....there is a lot of good info before you start pulling the trigger on things. Almost too much info...All of ideas are good in this thread though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gianspi Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Don't forget your brakes! Get, at least, good pads and fluid before hitting stage 2. 1- Brake pads and fluid 2- Tranny Cooler 3- Accessport (Stg I) Enjoy StgI for a few weeks. When you get used to the power, slap on: 4- Up and Down pipe, and flash the StgII map with your Accessport. Or, head over to openecu.org and grab an $80 cable and $30 map; and forget the $700 accessport. enough zip ties and duct tape will fix anything.

ih8vtec13 Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Definatly forget the Borla it only really gives a little sound and not much performance. If you want to stay quiet and gain some power there are a few god choices still. My favorite is the Megan Racing not too quiet, no drone, it sounds great, and it looks so damn stock so not as much added attention. I have also heard good things about Stromung too, it was my second choice and only cause of the price and the MR has nicer looking cans. My friend has one on his Impreza 2.5TS wagon and it sounds great and is intrusive on a cruise. There are a few more but I didnt really look into much more cause the twin tips appeal to me more then 1 large one and thats pretty much all that are twin tipped that I know of. I would go for a down pipe, cat back, and an Access Port first and maybe look for a stock STi up pipe, they are catless. Also look into getting a custom tune or an eTune from one of the better tuners on the web. You will be able to get more power out of what you have then the Cobb maps either way but an actual tune would be better. A friend of mine has on the Outback XT and he is stage 2 with a shorty DP, K&N intake, and either a stock Legacy cat back or at least stock Legacy mufflers and he said that the differance was amazing from Cobb to the eTune.

legacychick Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Hayden 677....check eBay you can purchase one & including shipping it's under 50 daalahs:):) the 678 is to large:( So I did some looking on ebay, and I can't tell the difference between the Hayden 677 Rapid-cool and the Hayden 1677 transaver. They look to be the same size and description, but the Rapid-cool is $10 more. Any reason I shouldn't buy the 1677 transaver? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legacychick Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 +1 on the Megan Racing if you are looking for a cat-back. It is quiet enough at highway speeds and sounds great for city driving. But look into getting an up and downpipe before the exhaust, unless you really want more sound. If you don't mind buying used stuff, check out the members classified in the marketplace section.

johnAWD Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Do an uppipe, downpipe, catback and some type of ecu tune. Free up the exhaust stream FTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
