    have you ever looked into any of the adhesives they use in autobody. 3m, lord fusor, evercoat and valvoline all make really good products. probly the best would be the evercoat since that one dont take a special gun, just a typical calking gun is all you need.

That's only happening when they update the firmware from 1.11 to 1.19. It's something in the cal conversion I think. Just don't update the firmware until you're on the dyno ready to tune?

    it's half easy. just undo the airbox, from the manifold and piping, thenpull it out and lean way out.

    off the top of my head, fc-edit has the intercooler spray option, anti lag for both ignition and and injection, and TPS switch. anyway, the point of this thread is not to argue which one is better. anyone else have the PFC?

    FG2;265990 wrote: Best recommendation I have read in this thread. An EVO or STi stock is too much of a car in stock form for 99% of owners. Drive the car to IT'S limits, then see where it fails you. Before you can drive it to it's limits (in control), a person has a lot of education/seat time. Brakes Minor Suspension/alignment Tires Drive it my $.02 oh and check out: http://fargostreet.com/forums/showthread.php?p=266001#post266001 I completely agree with that one Jason!! I wish I could have started out doing auto-x with my 240 mostly stock in stead of jumping into it and trying to learn in a fully built car.
