Hey Guys,
Just a little update on the R34 I imported. Been saving the pennies and finally decided what mod to do first. Yesterday I got a custom bell mouth dump and high flow cat fitted by the guys at Fat Pipes. Seems like a good job, from first appearances. Pics attached...
On an interesting side note... the import landed with two mods from stock. New Sound system and cat back done. Didn't know what it was, but the guys from Fat Pipes told me they were surprised cause it was a titanium system and that I would be a fool to touch it or replace it due to the high $$$, apparently... me thinks = win
Tried hard not to let myself be tricked by the placebo effect of new mods but I think I perceived a small increase in response at lower revs and seems to more quickly spool up, but only a small amount. Top end didn't seem to change to a large extent. Engine seemed a little more responsive overall, I think. To be honest i don't know if thats what I should expect or not. I know thats all very subjective but now I have done that I am hoping to do a little time on the dyno to see whats really happening... I'll update once that comes too... Next thing is getting the pre turbo air flow cracking...
Thanks for reading guys, any thoughts or expertise is always welcomed.
Tim
