kcblue Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 I have currenly added a cosmo racing cold air intake, megan racing header with uppipe, and a catback exhaust kit. Although I can tell significant gains in top end speed, would paying the money for a dyno tune and ECU Flash make a noticeble difference? Currently Modified by KC offers a dyno tune and ecu flash for 350.. Worth it or not? Also is it going to kill my gas mileage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbone Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 You are more or less required to get a tune at this point, if not for other reasons then for the intake alone because otherwise the car will lean out. Also, an intake is generally not needed because the stock one is not restrictive in a significant way on the stock turbo. If you want, you can ditch it without losing power. I can tell you have not done the proper research and went about mods in a hotch-botch manner, no offense. Catback is another point where you more or less will not see significant gains from. The downpipe is the droid that you are looking for. Also, dyno tune and ECU flash are pretty much the same thing, so you are not getting 2 things. You also need to familiarize yourself with the concept of datalogging to ensure the tune is running good after you have it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EquinnoxX Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 You can prob get by with what you have but it would make more sense to pickup a downpipe and then hit that dyno tune deal. It's a decent price from what I've seen.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m sprank Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 ERZ/CNT. Group buy still open. $280 delivered (catted) and pipes arrive in two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbone Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Any DP, catted or catless (you may have smell issues) should do it as long as you stick to known brands. eBay pipes are prone to issues and I wouldn't risk it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
