lordchilly Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I was tuned for 19 from Wicked Innovation. First he had it at 21 but he didnt like how the car jerked so he went to 19. That was with a stock turbo and turbo back exhaust and a 73mm intake. Maybe cause I have a vf46 and you both have a vf40?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2005hondakilla Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 i wouldn't run stage 2 boost (17 psi or higher) on a stock catted up or dp and stock tmic. The turbo will be working way hard and the tmic will be getting hot. i ran 15 psi on my catted setup. with a turbo back and a amic i would recommend 19psi. over that you are calling for a junk turbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTStage2 Posted August 10, 2010 Author Share Posted August 10, 2010 MDKSDMF I'm not sure I do have your number? The meet is posted up here: http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/8-21-10-mohegan-sun-casino-lgt-com-meet-142556.html I am hitting the shop this weekend all weekend and doing some repainting to mine and a shit load of work to my buddies 08 Sti. We should figure out how long it takes to get there and all meet up, drive down in a MA Subaru group, since ctsubie kills us!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTStage2 Posted August 10, 2010 Author Share Posted August 10, 2010 Willie, i'm thinking your pulling 19psi cause you have the front mount. Mike was saying i'll great roughly 2 more psi with that upgrade...so saving it is fmic to come!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordchilly Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 That was a tune before the FMIC. All i had was a kstech intake, x02 turbo back, stock TMIC, and a stock VF46 turbo. I haven't gotten a retune yet with the FMIC. Im waiting to get my stuff installed first before I retune it. I got new bushing, mounts and diff stuff to install. I think that would help with a better tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2005hondakilla Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 im running 19psi with a avo tmic and a manual boost controller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTStage2 Posted August 11, 2010 Author Share Posted August 11, 2010 What turbo hondakilla? I have plans to go with itsme fmic, 850cc injectors with perrin rails, and upgrade the turbo, not sure what I'm going with yet. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2005hondakilla Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 19psi with my stocker. that upgrade sounds perfect for a vf52. bigger pump,750cc injectors, and a vf52 is good for 315whp maybe more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTStage2 Posted August 11, 2010 Author Share Posted August 11, 2010 I was going to throw some numbers out but I know they don't mean everything, I would like to be around 350 - 400whp and anywhere from 375-450 for torque. I was thinking of going with an external wastegate/uppipe package but I am sort of weeding away from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDKSDMF Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 speaking of CT...im headed there friday to see Mike B for my stage 2 tune. I plan on a TMIC and VF52 upgrade with all the accessories next. The thread for the deal is on here somewhere. ill be down to go btw. willy text me..GTstage2 ill pm my cellie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordchilly Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 No FMIC with the tune. I needed one badly cause of the intake. i was sucking too much air for the car and I keep popping codes. so I needed a tune before the FMIC came. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTStage2 Posted August 12, 2010 Author Share Posted August 12, 2010 What year were the vf52's on? I do want to go with a six speed transmission but haven't really researched them a lot. I like short gears so I would like to find an '04 - '06 Sti transmission, I believe those are the years they made the six speed with shorter gears. I'm hopping to not rebuild the motor! That's just where it would be nice to be, I still have to do some more research. I am pretty set on fmic, injectors/rails, and a vf52 or something similar maybe something with a little more power.

MDKSDMF Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 I believe the 52s are on the new wrx's and whatnot. The 52 will bolt right in with a perrin or avo TMIC? I don't wanna front mount...too obvious for me. I like to look sleepy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2005hondakilla Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 the 6 speed is like a 4000 dollar swap between all the parts. you need to change the rear diff and all that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDKSDMF Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 So paint the core black!! or i can paint my TMIC black and be super double sleepy...cobb turbo heatshield should be here in a day or two. got the bracket back too lmao. thanks for the advice my lord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
