I think I'm going to shitcan the intercooler (or sell it) that came with the CX kit. The lower flange hangs right below the lip, so the undercover won't go back on.

230 HP can be better if you're making it for more of the powerband compared to another car with a higher peak HP but is only making it right at the top.

If you can get some nice pics of how you mounted the IC, the underside, and your pipe coming off the turbo you would be my hero :) Us teal guys gotta stick together. edit: this is what I bought...

Don't bench race, you get splinters in your ass. Go to the track.

I bought the CXRacing kit off of e-bay and I'm having the same problems. The kit is f'ing retarded and doesn't even come with the pipe that goes up to the turbo. Does anyone have a recommendation for a decent aftermarket hardpipe set-up that doesn't cost and arm and a leg?

OK, if you're sending the right signals from the switch and they are being received by the cruise control box, then we've got to assume that something is happening with the box that won't allow cruise to engage. It could be a faulty cruise box, but I'm thinking something else is causing it...

Is the "BRAKE" light on the dash on? If so, cruise will not engage.

No but I'd recommend getting the stainless braided clutch line instead of buying an OEM one. It will make life much easier! Also, spend the money and buy an OEM clutch and pressure plate. You're already pulling the transmission, might as well save yourself some headache down the road.

I had a lot of mileage lost when my stock bypass valve was stuck open. Replacing it got me to ~17 in town, ~24 on the freeway.

+1 I had my headgasket replaced before it had the chance to blow as well. It was cheap preventative maintenance.

I bought a 3" high-flow cat from Summit racing for like $35 (this was 4 years ago) and welded flanges on it. It seemed like the cheapest route to go, and was a custom fit.

C'mon, he's just doing his job. Owning the same model of car doesn't make you a part of some special club and immune. I paid $3.79 a gallon the other day for my fill up, and even though there's emissions testing here in my county I'm exempt for having a pre-OBDII car. Enjoy paying over 3...

I'm all about doing it on a budget. I've got the car, all upgrades, a 5-speed swap, new wheels/tires and a paintjob for around $12K, spread out over the past 5 years. I can't think of another car with the performance and quality that I could have bought/leased for $2,500 a year. Plus, it's a...

Damned straight. I run mid 13's on 275RWHP in my 7M. If you're putting down 400 horsepower and can't get deep into the 12's you need to stop racing.

The automatic ECU doesn't do anything differently as far as I can tell. My car revs up a bit on start up to get the motor warm, but once it reaches operating temperature it drops back down to 650 RPMs or so.

There's really no reason to do it. If you've got the wiring done and everything works, why bother?

Looks pretty retarded, not to mention it'd be a bitch to get the exhaust routed up to there with the gas tank in the way.

Oops, I voted for the wrong one because you put the blue on top and the purple on the bottom in the pictures. Take one away from that ricer purple and add it to the blue.
