Dmochowski · 02-17-2013, 08:59 PM

Upgraded TMIC without a protune? thinking once i get one if i just log it for a while and watch afr and knock and timing retard i should be ok. I dont want to get the protune until i get the ELH so

Scoobnut 555 · 02-17-2013, 10:05 PM

I created a Poll that everyone should vote on. It will determine whether or not there is a desire to become an official Southeast NASIOC Chapter or leave things the way they are.

From what I can tell it isn't needed but, you won't get any gains at all until you tune.

Dmochowski · 02-18-2013, 08:09 AM

yeah it sucks to pay to much for something to not see immediate gains, but i will want one later after my protune this summer

thetastelingers · 02-18-2013, 08:52 AM

In on 1!

Dmochowski · 02-18-2013, 09:58 AM

What TMIC do you have in your sti? I noticed its not the typical one everyone gets. Which seems to be the process West one. Was that bc of the Dom 1.5?

I miss my 02 wrx sometimes. Rear LSD and cheap parts like 500 dollar TMIC kits haha

I have the APS. Seems they are hard to come by.
Why not just upgrade to an STI TMIC? Prolly find one pretty cheap.

LOL@ me suggesting to upgrade everything to STI....

Dmochowski · 02-18-2013, 07:37 PM

so my ebay stuff sold. My take will be about 500 dollars for the two items i am not counting the 125 i got for another item that sold bc i used that to get that lip. So after adding it up it would cost me over a grand for the brakes. I got a guy who offered me 800 for his sti calipers so it would be about 1300 after all the stuff i would need so i think that out of the question lol.

Time to buy some pads and stainless lines.

thetastelingers · 02-19-2013, 08:11 AM

Wonder if these are the same thing.....
brembo brake calipers

Dmochowski · 02-20-2013, 01:28 PM

I know I am jumping all over the place here but I am gonna sell a weapon I have that I never use while I still can legally do it this way privately.

I had a couple things I was gonna do this summer and I will just get them now after I sell this so I can these expensive things out of the way. Tomei equal length header and process west TMIC. The intercooler is on back order till mid April so I am gonna get the elh first and wait till I get the other then get it down to top speed for a tune.

I anyone is interested it's a ptr32 pdw in 7.62x39 made by ptr91 who bought the rights to make HK's from then. So it's great quality and comes with four thirty round mags and a stock if you want to get a stamp and SBR it.

stimanmark · 02-20-2013, 10:09 PM

Glad I finally found "us" spread this link around to the rest of "us". Sucks too cause we were gettin alot of new people!

thetastelingers · 02-21-2013, 08:17 AM

Usually when a thread is closed, the last post is the link to the new thread.
Wonder if the moderators could do that for this one and we can do it for the ones from now on.
So people can find the new one that are subscribed.

Dmochowski · 02-21-2013, 11:49 AM

Ok the header is otw. If I sell my gun quickly I prob won't be patient enough to wait on the process west unit an I might just save some money and get the avo one. Avo is rated to 400 and process west is to 450 but I doubt I will ever hot that. So in the grand scheme of things it's prob not a big deal.

No brake parts?

Dmochowski · 02-21-2013, 12:57 PM

Gonna just start off with the pads and lines and see how they feel. Hopefully that will suffice. Was hoping to get away with the Hawk HPS pads for the front and the stop tech pads for the back

You will notice an improvement for sure. Make sure you use good brake fluid though. I have Motul 600 RBF and it is great!

Dmochowski · 02-21-2013, 06:09 PM

Does he also need Karlton flares?! Haha.

Masters84 · 02-22-2013, 07:56 AM

ok guys its time for me to do my emissions test. So my concern is i have no catalytic converter but i have the cobb accessport that over rights the code and all. Has anyone else had trouble not passing emissions with no cats in chattanooga?

Dmochowski · 02-22-2013, 08:18 AM

Hmm have not tried yet. I don't remember them doing anything other than scanning the obdII and checking the gas cap. Don't think they did a visual

Dmochowski · 02-22-2013, 08:23 AM

Been doing some research on the TMIC and it seems the avo one is 10.4" x 10.3" x 3.5" and the Perrin unit is 11 x 10.8 x 4 inches. Little bigger and they are on sale now for like 720 which is t bad I might be able to talk boston motorsports down a little more off that as well.
