My j-spec has been back on the road for a month n a half or so now,
was off the road for the best part of 6 months having the following fitted.. should have been 6 weeks, but you know mechanics
brand new evoIII 16g
ss equal length headers
3" dump pipe (mild) back to high flow 3" cat
ss cat back was already on
polished 2.5" ss ic piping
600x300x75 hybrid copy ic
haltech e6x running standalone
haltech controled boost @ 18psi
road friendly tune (better than stock)
battery re-located to boot
re-built gearbox with sincros & various other parts that were stronger than what i had salvaged from another box
already fitted audio wise was..
panasonic head unit (cool dot matrix display)
2x panasonic 12" subs
1x panasonic 4ch amp, bridged, running subs
stock rear speakers (work sweet)
vdo front 4" speakers
by no means a ground trembeling system, but has great, clean sound quality.
car was tuned by matty spry & made 176awkw
its got what i suspect is a failing igniter, as when the cars started warm (not usualy when hot) it maked a bizarre cranking noise & runs on 1 cylinder for a few secs, then 2 for maybe 30 or 40 secs & then its fine.
so that will need to be changed in the next week or so.
becides that problem all is sweet.
oh & if your wondering what kind of economy you will get from going the bolt on power up route, it gets 360 - 400 around town, with a fair bit of boosting or around 13/14L per100k. what i just found out today however is it got an increadable 389k's from 35ltrs of fule which is only 9L per100k
