    2nd cat removal

    Would love to stretch to a system but trying save the £££'s at the moment. Figured I'd build in a modular manner. Is the standard exhaust 2.5" and if so will this fit the rest of the OEM system? http://cobrasport.com/index.php/toyota-gt86-de-cat-pipe.html

    Foam air filter cleaning

    High power turbo applications in excess of 300bhp (I believe) have the potential to suck oil off the filter, although it could be people who saturate the filter when they reoil them. I'm not going to break 300bhp for some time, and K&N showed a great curve in a drop in filter test over the pond Will do for me for now

    ECU Setting Customisation

    I have an 86, might be different on a BRZ if you have one?
  8. Use to go to that pub on summer nights with my friends in convoy. Used to be too busy to get served . The Honey Bee is close by and very nice for food

    And if I go to a tuner do I just need to pay for license & tune and they use their own cable?

    It's starting to make more sense now, i read you can hire the cable etc too.. In that case do I just need to buy the license?

    Beta is now up to version 3 with an updated UI. Not much new for our cars other than tire pressure sensor registration. Still cannot get auto a/c to work

    If I wanted to use ecutek to flash OFT maps what parts would I need; i find the cable, Dongle, license model confusing

    2nd cat removal

    I finally found a video of an FR-S with fully OEM exhaust and a resonated front pipe. I love YouTube. Sounds raspier and louder http://youtu.be/SF8uvoWga7E

    Think I spend about £350 with Tesco but I live in a poor postcode (anything Stockport based is bad). I'm 36 with like 12 yrs no claims

    Did they use ecutek?

    I doubt Tesco is mod friendly but my insurance is up for renewal in Jan

    ..also if i go down the decat route how Do I explain it to the insurer. It isn't a full exhaust system swap. If I say decat they may think it is now not road legal?

    Which Xmas mod present

    Thanks for all of the opinions I sorted the drop in filter last weekend. Saw a change in engine noise and seems to be more responsive. I'm leaning toward the decat at the moment. I have no plans for FI.

    Which Xmas mod present

    If I go OFT I can remap as many times as I want as long as someone had created a similar tune. I guess the question should be, will I get more for my money immediately by getting OFT or 2nd decat
  23. Gringosteve

    Which Xmas mod present

    So do you decat then remap, or remap then decat

    Which Xmas mod present

    Regrettably it has to be one, can't blow too much cash as have multiple little ones to buy for
