This thread is to document my mods, tuning methods(since I do ALL my own tuning), and results of each stage of the process. So far I've ordered the following items: - Magnaflow Catback - Tuning Alliance TMIC - Hallman Pro MBC(I don't want to hear it, a properly tuned car with a MBC will NOT blow your engine) - All Weather floor mats(to get in on the VF52 giveaway) - I'm picking up a uppipe from a buddy - Bidding on a Invidia DP locally thru EBay As I said I do all my own tuning using ECUFlash and Romraider. As you could see with my 2.0L WRX I was not afraid to push the envelope. I'll keep you posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW..If you use the live.com 25% discount, you could get a new Invidia on ebay for about $200! I am thinking of going with invidia, but I want a DP with an o2 bung at the bellmouth.

testes1010 Posted November 6, 2008 Author Share Posted November 6, 2008 but I want a DP with an o2 bung at the bellmouth. Fact: putting the wbo2 sensor at the bellmouth will limit the life of the o2 sensor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spec B Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Fact: putting the wbo2 sensor at the bellmouth will limit the life of the o2 sensor. There is some debate about this one, and I don't know enough to know who's right. Some poeple say it is fine, some say further down the pipe is better (JDM DP 02 location), some say you could use the stock location...sigh. I just don't know.

testes1010 Posted November 6, 2008 Author Share Posted November 6, 2008 some say you could use the stock location I would much rather see it on the bellmouth than the stock location. The pressure the sensor is seeing in the manifold collector could throw off the readings quite a bit. If you chose to put it in the bellmouth please use a heatsink to dissipate some the heat away from the sensor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infamous1 Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I would much rather see it on the bellmouth than the stock location. The pressure the sensor is seeing in the manifold collector could throw off the readings quite a bit. If you chose to put it in the bellmouth please use a heatsink to dissipate some the heat away from the sensor. I am sure spec B was refering to the rear sensor location. It really depends on the sensor and the heat range. The LC-1's seem to die quickly if exposed to high egt's for a while. My Zeitronics Bosch sensor operates at a higher range (isn't even compatable with my LC-1) and has been installed in the bellmouth for over a year without any problems. It was even purchased used. So I recommend if buying an LC-1 to either install it perminately a distance from the turbo (before any cats) or just use it temporary to dial in fuel in the bellmouth then pull it. Oh and welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I put my LC-1 bung in the bellmouth location about 4" post-turbo. No heatsink. 9 months later it's still working well. I accepted the possibility that I might burn through sensors a little quicker than if located elsewhere.

testes1010 Posted November 6, 2008 Author Share Posted November 6, 2008 Hey man, good to see you over here too...guess we all grow into a legacy at some point.. I won't one as soon as they came out. I just couldn't justify trading in the WRX at the time so I waited a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infamous1 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I'm- Hallman Pro MBC(I don't want to hear it, a properly tuned car with a MBC will NOT blow your engine) Oh noes you are going to blow your motor For sake of discussion, what is your reasoning for going with the MBC? How must psi are pushing? Thats a big torque number for stg 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShad0w Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 My guess is about 18-19 psi-ish.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
testes1010 Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 For sake of discussion, what is your reasoning for going with the MBC? How must psi are pushing? Thats a big torque number for stg 1. I was after the absolute quickest response possible. I've ran & tuned many GM, perrin, & prodrive BCS' and nothing beats a quality MBC as far as response goes. I'm peaking just under 17psi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
testes1010 Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 My guess is about 18-19 psi-ish.. ssshhh, not till STG2...... btw, AFRs are in 11.2-11.4 neighborhood via LM-1. MAF Flow is peaking at 233g/sec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
