wut is the effect of upgraded front pipe?

[Guest SORLO]

Hi, can anyone know that the big effect as the new and upgraded front pipe is installed?

[GTS-t VSPEC]

I'm not sure what your asking, but a proper front pipe will make a decent performance upgrade. You will gain a bit in the top end power, but the majority of improvement is in torque and throttle response.

oh, thanks.

any suggestion of a good front pipe that i should use?

what is Apexi power FC and S-AFC controller for? what is the main advantages of using those controllers?

[GTS-t VSPEC]

I would normally get a custom front pipe made, but any of the Japanese brands are very good.

Apexi Power FC- is a replacement computer for your car, allows for total adjustment of all features, provides more power once tuned.

S-AFC - is an air/fuel controller, richens or leans out the air/fuel ratio, which when tuned can give more power.

These controllers will increase the power of the car, the Power FC has many more features, but is more expensive.

what a rapid reply..............!!!! thanks mate.

[Guest SORLO]

may i ask what have you made modification for your car?

[rev210]

you will be able to see into the future and bend spoons.

Stupid question, but what do you mean by "front pipe"?

[rev210]

the bit of pipe that comes directly off the turbo, though some people call that the dump pipe (you don't use it as a toilet tho') and the pipe from the dump pipe to the cat these people call the 'front pipe'.

[Al]

I am one of those people that called in a dump pipe! Thanks

I'm getting my Dump + Front pipes installed next Wednesday and then my car Dyno'd the following saturday.

I'll post a before/after dyno thread so all can see the difference.

[hippy]

u don't need a afc if u got a powerfc??

[akeenan]

I'll post a before/after dyno thread so all can see the difference.

please do this, i would be very interested to see the differences.

[BATMBL]

hippy,

no you dont, the power fc takes care of everything, including what the afc can do

[Guest SORLO]

i am going to install electronic boost controller and short shift next saturday. Hope they will give me good power and handling. Btw, power fc is very expensive though.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

SORLO,

The boost controller is very good, but make sure you have done all the exhaust work first. Short shift kits won't improve handling, just time between gear shifts, good for the drags once your used to them.

[Guest SORLO]

GTS-t VSPEC,

I do have my exhaust modified. But not modify the extractor and the front pipe / down pipe yet. Is that okay?

Next month i will have my brake changed to GTR-R33's brake system, hope it will help stopping..... :-)

[Guest SORLO]

benm,

looking forward to seeing your Dyno's result.......... hope it will improve a lot. :-)

[GTS-t VSPEC]

GTR brakes are far superior, so that will be a good choice. Doing your dump pipe is definately worth doing, but you can do this after the boost controller, but I wouldn't do too much more without changing these pipes.

thanks for your advice. Would that be a big implication if i want to change a bigger turbo? What kind of important parts that i should change to cope with the bigger turbo?
