Re: First Under Hood Mods?
Anyone had experience with Tunedub in calgary? I guess the use unitronic chipping. Any better options for chipping in calgary or red deer? Also to touch back on the exaust stuff, withing attaching a straight pipe whats involved? O2 sensors, anything used from it to feed? or is it straight up pipe from turbo back?Last edited by CGDoig; 06-30-2010, 04:22 PM.

all cars do not requre back pressure . this is why no race cars have muffled systems , even a 1.6 l v tech honda was proven to bennifit the entire power range by removing the exhaust at the down pipe . so yes the vnt loves big exhaust
i would start with nozzles and chip . then exhaust and turbo . you will love the powersigpic

Re: First Under Hood Mods?
Reading more on the exhaust system. Seems that a straight pipe and even high flow will trip the o2 and cause the CEL to come on intermittently with a code. Might not do that, just for the car to sound louder for 500 bucks probably isn't worth it.Last edited by CGDoig; 07-02-2010, 06:01 AM.
