What's your BEST/Worst mod???

[vgaroian]

best:Brian Crower Cams
Worst: Boost gauge

 

[PieEyedPiper]

Best: Defi-D Boost gauge (I fricken love the thing), Illuminas +Prokits

Worst: Illuminas + Prokits (I didn't realize it, but I'd out grown them long before I ever put them on the car. Prokits are a joke. Should have got a REAL setup like Konis + GC)

 

[ryanman]

On my current 2G DSM...

Best: 6 bolt swap & Apexi 3" catless turbo back w/ Dynomax race bullet

Worst: umm, this is my 16th DSM, I don't buy shitty parts anymore, .

 

[FORMONTOYA]

Worst: Illuminas + Prokits (I didn't realize it, but I'd out grown them long before I ever put them on the car. Prokits are a joke. Should have got a REAL setup like Konis + GC)

Funny thing...I too have outgrown the Illumina/GC setup with a simple 16G install and wish to go Koni/GC as well, just haven't found the time/money yet. The Tokico just doesn't cope well with anything beyond a stock turbo (on a 2G anyway, you hit the corners with a lot more speed). However, with the stock turbo it was a fu@!ing awesome setup!

 

[freshlane]

Best: Small 16g
Worst: Ditching apexi exhaust for a side exit exhaust. I'm a idiot.

 

[Anne]

Worst: the mostly stock car had a turbo timer on it when I bought it.
Best: DSMlink.

 

[99gst_racer]

best:Brian Crower Cams
Worst: Boost gauge

How do you figure that one?

 

[squirley8888]

I dont think you realize how loud it is. I have alot of stuff done to the car and the whistle that it makes overwhelms all other sounds. When I finally get it back Ill post video so you can really see/hear what I am dealing with. If I cant get it to stop I will sell it to you (as soon as I buy a diffrent one)

I can't remember the exact cause but I remember reading somewhere that the whistle is usually cause the mounting surface is not completely true I believe or something about it lining up.

Worst: Boost gauge

I'm hoping that should be the other way around. I can't see what BC cams are doing for an otherwise stock GST.

Love how its all about shitty BOV's. I run my crushed 1g bov at 30psi with no leaks!!!

You should hear the 1G BOV with the Dodge Garage Mod done....it doesn't even sound the same at all. You'll see a little flutter if you blow off at 10-15psi, but it sounds amazing at 25psi+! They're such a well-built piece- I can't imagine ever using another valve...except maybe a Tial once the 1G BOV can't drop the air volume quick enough for a huge turbo.

Worst: umm, this is my 16th DSM, I don't buy shitty parts anymore, .

There are 16 DSM's in Alaska?

 

[-TunedDSM-]

Best: 3" Megan Turboback
Worst: Painting my taillight center piece, luckily I found a mint OEM center to replace it with.

 

[black_gst]

Best: Tial 38mm WG
Worst: Tial 38mm WG dump to atmosphere(its loud as hell, but scares the crap out of people when i drive by)

 

[19BLACKGST98]

Best: FP2 cams and JMF intake
Worst: getting dsmchip and maft instead of dsmlink

Does your intake not have a whistling sound to it? Any problems with it?

I can't remember the exact cause but I remember reading somewhere that the whistle is usually cause the mounting surface is not completely true I believe or something about it lining up.

If you happen to find where you read that I would appriciate it. I will be looking thanks.

Sorry for interupting the thread.
