Sup People?

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what upgrades would be neccessary (if any) to install 550cc injectors?

Also, has anyone installed a mesh grill? If so, what size is needed for my 2g OZ Edition GS?

Thanks ;) :hellyeah::hellyeah::hellyeah::hellyeah:
 
For fun, I am going to build it. My goal is 350-400 whp. If you have a suggestion I am open.

Anything on the grill?

Do you have any idea what the pieces on the hood that shoot out the windshield fluid are called?:hellyeah::hellyeah::hellyeah::hellyeah:
 
I'm sorry, wouldn't 550cc injectors add to my pull? along with a walbro fuel pump?

The suggestion came from a long time tuner.:hellyeah:

well first off if your going to do a build you dont buy injectors to start with. google google google! look up upgrade paths on 2gnt.com and read it not skim through it actually read. those things are called windshield squirters. your better off making your own grill since the ones they sell that are good quality are about $150 and up which isnt worth it.
 
Gotcha, I'll google some.

With the grill, should I just pop out to home depot and get 'er done? LOL :hellyeah::hellyeah::hellyeah::hellyeah:
 
thanks about the squirter

going on boost probably at the end of the year. the car has a CAI and full exhaust right now. So I'm wanting to work on cosmetics and grab some power to have fun with until then. Should I work on cosmetics and go CAI, Headers, Exhaust, and tune for now?:hellyeah::hellyeah::hellyeah::hellyeah:
 
Just get some mesh from Home Depot or ace hardware, cut to proper side and use epoxy or similar to hole to bumper. That's the way I did mine looked great and was a cheap. And on a n/a car you could actually hurt performance by adding to big of a exhaust and the Cai could cause to much air and the car actually run like crap. Read thru proven upgrade paths on here or 2gnt.com

Those are the wiper spray nozzles for the 3G eclipse. Far better spray pattern than the 2Gs to begin with (I'm pretty sure the 2Gs aren't even available anymore).

I always deal with Paul and Josh at JNZTuning. Bought those a year back from them to replace my clogged 2Gs. Be sure to remove the blue check valve on the hose before installing them. I made that mistake for a while and couldn't figure out why they weren't working :ohdamn: ROFL
 
Yeah like previously mentioned throwing 550cc over the stock injectors are not going to help with your current setup. 400hp is possible just like with any build but the money it would take to get there is literally going to cost some big $$$, so I would look it up first. If you just want some more oomf and are positive on keeping the 420a I would turbo with supporting mods on 6ishpsi and call it a day (The CAI and headers/exhaust most likely will not you the oomf you want, if any at all). If you look around you will see the dedication and deep pockets it will take to get there.
 
I hear ya. I was going to buy a 02-07 wrx and build it at the end of this year, and I thought to myself, for a 3rd of the $ I would buy the wrx and build it with, I could make this gs pristine in about any way I want to make it. $$ wise, I'm thinking 5-8K after boost and cosmetics, give or take.

Is that the $ you were thinking of me spending?:hellyeah::hellyeah:
