Because some people don't like cookie cutter cars like a WRX. Maybe Chike does but he doesn't count. I would rather spend hours making something than spend thousands buying something I am too scared to make myself. T00ls love wrxes

Not true with what I bought. This stuff was 14 bucks a bottle and I think it said right on the bottle will boost octane 7-10 OCTANE. It only treated 10 gallons too.

Cool Got the times!!!!!!

ok for a Mexican that drive a SVX and that is still in school (high School)

Ok ran the Car with out inter/no grill and about ½ of gas new oil. with 4o psi of air in tires. took all I could get out without going nuts. light weight rims (Weighing about 17p think) and some new ass tires too . New rotors and new pads. new brake lines and I think that was it. It was about 86 or 89 out side with some wind. For The Fast time that I got was Sweet for my car that has never being ran Hardcore. The slowest that I got was a 15.5 and after I play around with the car and got used to it. The Fast I ran was a 15.3 on 1/4 . the car haves no engine mods right now but I’m willing to get some if I can find some ????

I’m going to get the car under 15 and into the 14 dam it !!!!!

Congrats on the excellent times! First thing you should do by way of upgrades is get the ECUTune Stage 2v5. That'll be essential to going 14 seconds... From there look at doing either a 5/6spd MT or 4.44 4EAT swap.

You can go straight to stage 2. If you want to go 14's, the Stage 2 will be essential...

Suspension mods are the best!

Stage II is not much of an improvement of stage I power wise. There was only like an 8hp gain from it. But The thing about stage II is that it offers so much more. 1st, it really smooths out the power band in upper RPMs so the car will pull more up top. Secondly, the Stage II software will read airflow much better so if you wanted to upgrade your cams like CHike and myself have done, it will show. I dropped my 1/4 mile E.T.'s by 3 tenths from 14.8 to 14.5 and also bumper my trap speeds by 4-5 mph. The only way this is possible was the cams I had installed. Chike had the same cams in his car but since he didn't have the stage II installed his times were not effected by much. It is a great investment and you will love it even if yopu decide to keep the engine stock

www.ecutune.com for the stage 2 - pricing is on their site - you can get it cheaper if you can find a Z32 maf on your own.
Tom might help you with the cams. A search here would probably turn up some pricing.

The ECUtune chips come with detail instructions and installation is fairly easy. The cams should be able to be done by any reputable shop but some knowledge of the EG33 should be present upon installation. Delta cams in tacoma washington is the grinders of the cams. You would need to send them some core intake shafts in order for them to weld and regrind them. It is not as simple as just buying them from there
