OMG new update! *Post 30*
 
of this week! Just bought a used Apex'i N1 catback exhaust for $240 shipped! :eek: Here is the exact exhaust I bought, I actually bought it off this guy too. It sound awesome.

Plus my downpipe, uppipe, SAMCO TMIC hose, and Perrin drop-in filter will be going on this weekend hopefully.

God you're a ricer







lol. Good work man. How does it feel to have an engine that actually responds to bolt-ons? Must feel good, huh?

Well with downpipe, catback exhaust, and uppipe, I will get a quicker spool, and around 30-40 hp and I only paid $370 for all that stuff. Once I purchase engine management I will be looking at around 285-300 hp with an AWESOME tune. You have no idea how good it feels when you add something and it makes you go faster. I probably will never drive another car that isn't turbo and doesn't have over 200 hp. Granted I only have 169.9 to the wheels, I have 227 hp to the flywheel, which is HUGE loss in the AWD drivetrain, but man do I get awesome traction :giggle:

I plan on getting a dyno before I install everything to get a handle on where I am at. I will post dynos when I get them.

TransformedBG 09-14-2006 12:05 PM

ummmm.... when you get this done are you going to doo a 6000 rpm launch like some people like to with there stock sti's? :lol:

SLO REX 09-14-2006 06:43 PM

Umm I have done maybe 5 6k launches and wow does it throw you back, but even I know when to stop and the most I will do it 3500, but it bogs down after a low launch.

blackBDMcivicLX 09-14-2006 08:03 PM

Eww he had the dirty exhaust mark on his bumper. Such a turn off. Sounds good though.

boricua_civic 09-15-2006 01:17 PM

niice :sweet: keep the work on!

StLVtec 09-15-2006 02:12 PM

SLO REX 09-15-2006 02:17 PM

good choice on the AP. When I reflashed stage 1, WOW! Never thought ~200WHP would feel like that! With your current mods stage 2? It's amazing what a ECU reflash can do to the EJ20. Careful with the tranny though.

That happens to most cars that have no cats.......... so thats a turn on IMO :tup:

SLO REX 09-15-2006 10:08 PM

Yeah I will be catless too and I cannot wait.

boricua_civic 09-15-2006 11:49 PM

poor mother earth :mad: :giggle:

SloW4Sh0wVic 09-16-2006 09:48 AM

that cf thing above the exhaust?

where can one be purchased?

StLVtec 09-16-2006 01:56 PM

Do you have ap on order. I have mine for sale from my old rex, let me know if you want it

SLO REX 09-16-2006 02:09 PM

No don't have it on order, need money for rent. PM with the details of how much? Married or unmarried? What year? What transmission? Just alot of info thanks bro.

Axxe 09-16-2006 02:14 PM

haha, only that way for ppl with a NA 4 banger wanting to squeeze a few more HP. Turbo folks, it's justifiable.

SLO REX 09-18-2006 05:22 PM

UH-OH, something else just arrived...What can brown do for you? DELIVER MY FUCKING EXHAUST W00T!

Apex'i N1 catback exhaust, cost me $220 shipped from someone up north!

Well I guess I will techniqully be stage 1 after these get installed, since I don't have Cobb AccessPORT and the funds are pretty low.
Here are the other parts sitting in my room

ramcosca 09-18-2006 05:23 PM

You son of a bitch...

SLO REX 09-18-2006 05:24 PM

More realistically I am looking at around 250-260 whp with AccessPORT, which means I will be able to take a stock STi and stock EVO. STi is ~230 whp I think.

ramcosca 09-18-2006 05:26 PM

Again: you son of a bitch.

TransformedBG 09-19-2006 11:10 AM

stage 1.5 sitting in your living room! Sweet! now i wonder.. what stage am i? lol

SLO REX 09-19-2006 04:04 PM

ramcosca 09-20-2006 05:33 PM

So, that filter will let your car have like... the same amount of hp that intake+header+exhaust on a civic does?

SLO REX 09-20-2006 05:34 PM

No, I get 1 whp from it, not .6 like the Civic HAHAH :lol:

Also, the turbo is alot louder and more distinguished

SLO REX 09-22-2006 02:44 PM

Alright well, I just when and dropped $850 on a GReddy evo2 catback, Helix uppipe, Helix downpipe, and Cobb AccessPORT. I bet y'all are thinking why have two uppipes and two downpipes and two catback exhaust?!?! Well when I got a hell of a deal on them and I can turn around and sell them for around $1,100 parted out, but I plan on keeping the accessPORT and deciding which catback I like better. So when everything comes in I will have TONS of pictures of all the parts laying in my room :lol: So I am looking to only be spending $350-$400 on the engine management, which makes me very happy and STAGE 2! Or to be a little more specific, 250+ whp w00t!
