Just found this forum. I'm excited. Just ordered Act heavy Duty Clutch Kit, Act 10.9lb flywheel, APEXi N1 exhaust, Magnaflow hf cat, Skunk2 Intake Manifold, Mizu Aluminum Radiator and a Megan adjustable Cam Gear. Finally getting wheels. So I'm doing the brakes and tie rods while I'm in there. One year of driving it stock (well i bought a cheap header and intake off of ebay last year) and finally, its gonna be AWESOME!!!!Post pics later. Also Ill post pics during the installation.

I'm keeping the cheap header this year. Its a 4-2-1 and not terrible. I plan on getting the GReedy turbo kit next year. Unless it cracks or something. Also, I have a ram intake that I'm going to turn into a cold air.

Here is the first pic of many.

looks clean, it sounds like your starting out on a great project.

don't get a greddy turbo kit, they really aren't very good.

Justin98ex

Thanks man. I like the fact that GReedy kit comes with injectors and Plug and play kit. Plus you keep A/C. What don't you like about them?

MindBomber

They don't power, they aren't great quality and the ems system sucks.

Justin98ex

Thanks for the advice.

Picking out wheels is an adventure. What about these?
IDK if this will even work (it does

Alright, I Put the Intake manifold on and I have a leak some where. Errrr. Its idling from 2000-1500-2000-1500-2000-1500.Errrrr. BTW It runs and sounds like a beast, now!!!!!! So do I need a new Idle control valve? I cleaned it out really good. Before project it idled really low like 400... And the screen was caked with ****. What do you think?

I'd assume it was a vacuum leak somewhere...make sure all the vacuum hoses are snug and there are none missing or disconnected...a bouncy idle with it running fine while driving is usually a vacuum leak.

Don't get enormous rims... stick to 15 or 16. Just my opinion but if you get 18s they look gaudy

Last night I took off intake pipe and while the car was running put my hand over throttle body. Died instantly. No vacuum leaks, right? The old intake gasket looked alright so I didn't change. I'm going to start there. Why is the IACV so damn expensive?!!!!!!! Finally got my Apexi exhaust today. WOOOOHOOOO. I'm cramming all this air into a stock muffler. Even a bolt on exhaust has to be a bitch. Rusty bolts here I come.

I just bought new tires this year. Took of hubs and gave the steelies a new coat of black paint. Gives me more time to work on the suspension.

**** a fat one, a fat *****!!!!! I was so proud that I haggled my way down on this Apexi N1 exhaust. All the way down from $600 w/ shipping to $465 w/o shipping. GUESS what "Andy's Auto Sport" DID....... They sent the one for the DX. **** ****. I would send it back but they want me to pay for shipping, to and from and a $70 restocking fee. Plus pay the full $600 dollar price. Andys auto can suck it. Ill never shop there again. Now I have to cut on this beautiful exhaust pipe to make it fit. That took an easy do it yourself project and made it so I have to pay a welder. ****.......
