The GIAC flash was done yesterday. A lot smoother response throughout the rev range, though the hp gains don't seem overwhelming (butt dyno) However, the diffence in throttle response and the overall smoothness of the car post-flash definitely make the mod worthwhile.

Now the question of the moment:
What next? I thought I was done with the powertrain once I did the ECU, but mod-fever is in full swing.

All ready in:

Exhaust: Milltek
Pulley: 15% Alta
ECU: GIAC
Plugs DENSO IK-22
Intake - K&N Typhoon - (My first mod, and done before discovering NAM. I'm aware most will respond it's not a good choice. So, let's omit it from the discussion. I will at some point replace it, most likely. But let's not make it an intake thread...those don't seem to go all that well lately.)

So, what next?

 

I guess it will all depend on how much more $$$ you want to spend... I'm thinking of going the same route as you but going to start w/ suspension instead first..

1. sway bar
2. coilovers
3. everything you've done so far
4. milltek header
5. port polished head/throttle body
6. GIAC flash
7. quaiffe LSD
8. BBK
9. audio...

Hope I gave you some ideas....

looks like it's time to start on the suspension. you've got plenty of power right there, so i'd say springs (h-sport's ROCK, around an inch lower at most), sway bars (something adjustable, the h-sport again ROCKS). then prolly some lighter wheels and stickier tires. oh yeah, and get rid of the K&N just my .02:smile:
