For what it's worth, the '06 did get a revised ECU compared to the MY04-05s so this could be a reason for the slightly lower numbers. But then again, dyno conditions vary day-to-day as well, so in the end the discrepancy doesn't matter anyway.

You need to get yourself back in an AP2..I'm still waiting to hear back from Hytech on their cams and header.
I talked to John at hytech and he said they are heavily protoing their cams, and should be good to go by the end of the year!!!


he also said that upgraded springs and retainers were a must.

but i know for a fact these things make 10-20 WHP, unlike the BC cams

Out of all my mods my flywheel, and the hytech header felt to me to gve the most noticabele gains. Don't worry I've decded to come back to the game and purchase an 07S!! However I am still going to wait until next year to do so marhc. Now I'm having trouble decided on what color I want.

[QUOTE=wildcardtrd,Dec 6 2006, 04:19 PM] ^^^CAI's on this car are a total waste of money, unless you're going for looks.

to many silverstones out there. I'm considering going with white and the red/black interior.

HOwever I have always liked black the best so I may go with black insead and join the darkside.

Toda Clutch kit w/ Toda flywheel

Aren't ITB's like 4 grand? I'm sure they cost a lot to get tuned as well. Could cops get on you big time for having ITB's? Sorry, haven't really researched on em that much.

Yeah I'm thinking about getting a K&N drop-in soon. T1R header, and I'll think about a lightened flywheel.

Edit: btw, this is my daily driver, does it effect driveablility and reliability for daily use?
IIRC wildcard got his ITBs for just over $1500. From what he has said, it runs rough until the engine is warmed up, but after that it's fine.

If you're in CA, it's more than likely illegal.
