Looks like standalone engine management i.e. Link etc

What about a superchip or ecuteck plain remap? Any one in the waikato?

Cheers

Nah he also can remap the factory ecus also.

Give him a ring and ask him about it if you want.

Going in next tuesday... performance dyno tuning ellis street frankton

[dimin]

Tuning and performance Ltd in Hamilton do open source reflashes if your set on something local

[Pappu1]

im looking at the same sort of thing and have gotten 2 types of vies from different tuners:

some say do the walbro 500hp fuel pump and wire in a relay to hold full voltage to it

and speed source say to use the factory wiring and no need to change the wires just the pump (apperently their 10 sec sti ran factory wiring to the pump)

GCP say the same as well - just need to put in a walbro and no need to rewire the pmmp

and then other ones i spoke to say even with factory setup (no mods just reflash they got like 40 odd kw increases) - damm

anyway, what are ur thoughts people -

the mods i have are:

3 inch turbo back exhaust

walbro 500hp pump

(to rewire or not??)

and retune

expecting 220 kw at wheels - thats what all the tuners think i will be about as most v7 have it to that level with same mods

what are the places u would recomend for me being in auckland? (good price too hopefully)

Yep, 500hp walbro FP (non wired)

Nothing else although been looking at FMIC or upgraded TMIC but do want to start that debate again afetr searching for it on here!!!!!!!!!!!

[Pappu1]

sweet as!!

yea do post up any graphs and power figures all that sort bro - im fully interested

what abt exhaust?

yea a biger top mount with water spray be the one..

or front mount if u want the looks as well haahaha

[bailin]

nah im picking up an sti intercooler tonight FMIC looks abit OTT for me i like subtle/understated

Pappu just wire the pump its f all extra to do and it does make a difference..

Been talking ot people in the buisness who have dynoed with factory pump and made x amount of power and thought fuel was maxing out.

Wired a relayh in and got quite a bit extra out of it.

I did it as my car wasnt getting enough fuel same scenario...Rewired and made a difference.

An extra volt can make a big difference in terms of what the pump can flow

hey bro i agree with u but the tuners (big name places) keep saying the factory controller is good enough to use especially with the factory ecu... ???

and the sped source 10 sec sti - think was like 350kw engine setup - they reakin factory wiring and controller... i mean that 10 sec was not just some dyno queen if u know what i mean ay bro... confuses the hell outta me to be honest :-\

[nt_a_foz]

yeah they may ahve been using it sure ...

But it is common sense the more voltage it gets the more its going to flow..Probably not going to be a problem till you pushing it hard but when you getting a retune this is where its going to matter you want more fuel to make more power.

BEtter to be safe than sorry

You dont want to get on the dyno and find your fuel pumps not getting enough voltage which i found and have to pay for a 2nd retune for the sake of a $20 relay do you???

And iv been told by tuners big name places also and they recommend to do this.

in my foz, walbro on factory cables, could not hear pump

walbro rewired straight from battery, pump whines like a bitch

I vote rewire!

even my factory pump with wiring mod you can hear whine away....

[bailin]

ended up not getting done for two reasons

1. They were flat out tuning another sti....

2. Couldnt talk with the software to the car..until 330pm so it was abit late in the day

Back again and im first on the dyno tmw, luckily i picked up and installed a sti TMIC tonight.... see if makes any difference

Roll on tmw

I was the same

[Pappu1]

hmmm i guess i will go down the rewire route..

just unsure why the tuners saying not to rewire...dam

m thinking of making it switchable between full wired to battery and factory setup (for situations where i dont want the whine in the car lol)

[nt_a_foz]

you wont be able to hear the whine when driving your exhaust will drown it out lol and the road noise.

is the whine the same volume as when the pump primes up when u first sr\tart the car?
