IRPDR Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 700... maybe an AccessPort? I just took a quick glance at the Turbo Powertrains sub-forum and already notice some good info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoxerGT2.5 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 Brake the car in first before you start any power mods. Hit 1000mi and go get the AP. Then save up for some tires.....your gonna need them. I'm gonna start a "Ban the RE92" campaign!!! OBAMA......One Big Ass Mistake America! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEGA-C-YA Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 Get an AP. Then you can sell rides in your rocket to your friends to raise money for everything else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWDxBOOST Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 does the access port raise boost pressure or what? the site doesnt even say.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest *Jedimaster* Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 Wow. It does raise boost as well as tunes the ECU for more power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peniXmalone Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 thanks guys.. now what kind of AP should i get Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoxerGT2.5 Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 thanks guys.. now what kind of AP should i get Well....If you have a manual....get the one for the 5MT. If you have the 5EAT....get the accessport for the auto. OBAMA......One Big Ass Mistake America! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KTM 525 Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 How hard of a hit does the gas milage take with the AP guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRPDR Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Your lead foot will have more of an affect on gas mileage than the AP. If you drove the same way with the AP as you do now, gas mileage won't be affected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JessterCPA Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Any word as to how well "economy" mode works on the AP in terms of gaining MPG? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWDxBOOST Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 it probably cuts the boost at peak hp/tq rpm...could be a significant gain in mpg...my guess would be 5 or 6 depending on driving habits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JessterCPA Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 it probably cuts the boost at peak hp/tq rpm...could be a significant gain in mpg...my guess would be 5 or 6 depending on driving habits If this is the case. I may make some of my money back in gas savings alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest *Jedimaster* Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 You could just be easier on the pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JessterCPA Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 You could just be easier on the pedal. Bah! According to my quick calculations and assuming approx 5mpg improvement, I could save about .02/mile which would give my a payback in about 33,000 miles. Hmm.....deep thoughts......
