I finally got the last of the air bubbles out thanks to your help. So it was time to take it for a test drive and adjust the boost.



I just finished the equilivant of the M3 stage 3 modifications which include:



Downpipe (SR Motorsports)

Catback (Racing Beat Dual Tip)

M2 Intake

M2 Large Intercooler

M2 Stage 3 reprogrammed ECU

Greddy Profec B



I did most of these mods so that I could have a system properly tuned for the larger intercooler. I want to take my car to some track days and I think the stock intercooler won't quite do it.



Anway... I set the boost at 11psi and took the car for a spin. Damn! This car is fast! You are all right! The stock car barely touched the performance potential of this car!



Everything seems to be running great right now. Let's just hope it stays that way. I don't plan on doing any more mods unless absolutely necessary.



By the way... it would have been really hard to get everything done without help from everyone on nopistons.com I really appreciate everyones friendly advice!

LOL! oops. Yes M2... not M3



Yeah.. but if I get rid of the cat I'll have to get a ported wastegate so I don't overboost.
