what should i look for when i buy a used type s axles and hub
is there a way to see if the axles are no good?
ok so im thinking aout getting the AEM UEGO a/f guage, AEM oil pressure gauge and AEM boost 35 pis gauge
my question is, where do you guys put these. Is there a nice location where it can look oem. The one's I've seen so far looks out of place. Definitely don't like the ones on the pillar, thats just too much eye candy for the popos...any ideas? pics would be great...
Check out my build thread: http://www.ephatch.com/forum/showthr...urnal-of-an-Si)
Towards the end there are pics of my mounted gauge that you can look at for reference.
What he said. Don't pay attention to all these guys on here trying to get you to buy a bunch of shit you don't need. I would listen to people that have actually done it, and made the power, rather than all the guys that read magazines and forums to tell you what to do. If your stock timing setup has decent mileage (low) than don't replace it. Maybe do the Hybrid tct, but that's just a safeguard. Buy the gt35 turbo kit, as it is probably more complete, and judging from the turbo number with that full race kit, more responsive. I wouldnt buy axles until you start breaking them, until then, you are fixing shit that isnt broke, and spending big money in the process. Get an a/f gauge, and a boost gauge, in the defi brand. On the fuel pump issue, try to get what you can with 1000cc injectors, and an in tank pump. If you run out of fuel while tuning, THEN upgrade. People always try to get you to buy shit you don't need.

yea dont buy stuff u dont need. check out stubbys ride. should follow his setup. no need buyin this and that. keep us updated. im plannin on doin sidewinder setup so i mite see what u do so dont get expensive :)
tnx guys
appreciate the input
the spending has gotten out of hand already but I was just trying to pay more now and less later on...but yeah i dropped some things like axles, and valvetrain springs and retainers, even the HR tensioner
I dropped for now...
Turbo arriving friday afternoon, will post pics then ep going under the knife over the weekend but probably wont be entirely done with the bay until March....lots of plans for her
So I know that I will be getting a boost gauge with control
but I am not sure if I really need an A/F gauge
If I get a good tune, will I still need to monitor this? shouldnt this be taken cared of with a good tune.
I just dont like the look of too many gauges in the car, looks gey...
I just want a single gauge on the steering column
Im getting one custom made...
You can set the lean protection on hondata.. that will cut the throttle faster than you can let off the gas. Honestly with 400hp your not going to looking at an a/f guage, your going to be trying to keep your car in a strait line.
So yes with a good tune it should be just fine, you can always hook up your lap top and do a datalog now and then to keep it in check.
like I posted in the other thread. There is an option, all you do is select the MAP sensor and make a gauge from that.
that tunerview looks interesting. gonna get an electronic boost controller too...would look super cool :)
