Spoon_tuned Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 very nice mate glad your enjoying it atm Air Filter relocation will be a good mod to start with get some cool air to it. if your planning on getting a little more power and not spending to much buy a FCD and up the boost slighty maybe a front mount intercooler to.... look forward to the updates aidan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan_EP82 GT Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) yea loving it mate,it was a choice between a Vtec an the GT & im sure i made the right choice lol.. i wanna stick with the top mount to be honest i prefer it looks wise an dont really wanna cut into the bumper! :/ im thinkin of getting a greddy emanage blue and greddy evc for upping the boost becos if i do eventually go tdo4 or even hybrid ile need the management anyway..trying to invest wisely for the future too lol im just waiting on the exhaust arriving its the last piece of my jigsaw lol i went for the twin-pipe look,somethin different.. have the relocation kit ready 2 go on and rx-7 tmic arrived today delighted! but i want it put together in one day so im holding off ile put up a few pics an vids when ther fitted!

Towbar Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 My fmic fits lovely behind the bumper and managed to keep the bumper in tact, its barely visable which is all good I do love black 82's Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan_EP82 GT Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 Its a hard call Spoon btwn management and RRFPR/FCD, there both gonna skin me around 130-150..its a bit of a long way off just now anyway although i love the idea of a manual boost controller, i always pictured having set boost modes, one for casual driving and one for racing.. but manual wud be more fun definately lol.. Ile have a wee look at yours Towbar and see how it fits Love the 82's myself woulda loved a grey/silver colour...blacks so hard to keep clean Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turbo Grant Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I'd rather go down the emb route and a ct9 hybrid. Will make a nice responsive car. It's nice when you get them near enough standard. Mine only came with sard r2d2 bov, jap exhaust, rsr panhard rod, tein coilys handlers so well and a hks turbo timer all done over in jap land apart from the bov Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Turbo is that beside you in the pic? lol it is HUGE! i wanted it as close to stock as poss to mate, wish i hadve looked around for one with coilys but i have her now im sure ile get it around to my liking!

Ryan_EP82 GT Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 What Shorty said makes sense John 110% mate i think its the best option! id prefer emb over RRFPR's anyday and definately a hybrid for quicker response than the tdo4..im slowly going off the idea purely for response/lag resons! lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turbo Grant Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 mate, for a start..what the hell turbo is that beside you in the pic? lol it is HUGE! i wanted it as close to stock as poss to mate, wish i hadve looked around for one with coilys but i have her now im sure ile get it around to my liking! :)im thinking emb too for future turbo changes..unfortunately ive too much on the list ahead of me to worry about management yet :/ hahaIt's a HTA GT35 and that's shorty in the pic, he gets excited over it hahaReally nice base to start from. Takes time to get them how you want. Just leave room at the end of the list for the emb or other form of management. Will be much better to drive on Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Amjad Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Looks like a nice base! Good to see you've done some maintainance and general keep up before chasing power! I'm a student too, modding Turbos gets expensive haha! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pick1 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Looks like a nice base to start with mate enjoy the modding it soon gets addictive with these cars Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ryan_EP82 GT Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) Relocated the air filter to in front of the radiator, sits just nicely behing the grill Gave the RX-7 intercooler a polish and fitted it today! Definately miss the old Turbo casing already lol Not a dent on the fins, quicker response i think after trying it out! Adding this and the swap for ct9b turbo shud make for quick spool Changed the filter and oil again for more Millers 10W50. After a good test run to make sure everything was tight and secure, no leaks or bown off pipes = result! Edited September 30, 2013 by Ryan_EP82 GT Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ryan_EP82 GT Posted February 8, 2013 Author Share Posted February 8, 2013 (edited) Tuning Developments actuator arrived today, managed to get it set it to 12psi! Feels far quicker over stock and boost feels longer Gotta love more boost lol Edited September 30, 2013 by Ryan_EP82 GT Quote Link to post Share on other sites
