ok here is what im about to order from dejontool:

1gDSM 2 1/4 to 2 1/2" Blow Thru SMIC Upper Pipe

#CIP-1gD

That comes out to be $388.85 and im getting a hks ssqv from EDO Performance for $182. they seemed to have the lowest price but what i want to know am i going in the right direction? and also has anyone dealt with EDO performance.

ya i think i have the couplings. those are the black thing with the green stripe in my pic right? i was reading up on the maft translator and it really doesnt seem that hard to fix. sucks i cant put everything on until monday because after i got my car back from mechanic (after he fixe oil press gauge) when im idleing my oil pressure goes down really low and the oil light flashes a little and car kind of sputters so i need to get that fixed first.
Thanks

Wow, non stop problems. Yes you really need to get that fixed before anything else man. Check and see if the plugs match from the old mas...

ok im going to put all the stuff on tomorrow. got the gm maf friday and just got my modded 1g bov today and that was the last thing i was wating for. what kind of hp gains you think ill get form this?
Thanks

 

[Sk8er07999]

I would say atleast 30 maybe around 50 hp gain at the wheels. Watch that boost gauge man, make sure it doesn't creep too high. Have you seen that power pages on the 1g? They added like 70 hp with mods like you are adding. Your putting the exhaust on too right? Trust me you will feel a major difference, no joke, is definitley possible. Your going to notice that traction is going to become a major issue very shortly...

wow thats a pretty nice gain. thanks for the input. i dont have the exhaust yet, you now how rnr is, and also i dont know if i want to put that on myself, seems like its pretty difficult. anyways ill let you know how it goes tomorrow, thanks again.
