Sorry mate I didn't notice your last post
Made up you got an EP3 dude, best choice financially and due to the lower compression K20A2 engine they give the best power gains
Driving wise just give it a good thrashing
don't be afraid to take it into the redline, its what they are built for and its so much fun.
VIN Plate is under the bonnet mate on the passenger side. I got my mate to help me out with the Tegiwa airbox but they are pretty easy to fit, the only difficult bit is cutting the scuttle panel because you want to get a nice neat job which thankfully my mate got spot on.
Tegiwa Airbox is the most enjoyable mod I have done probably, sounds amazing mate you will p*** yourself laughing when it's first fitted.
As for the upgrades I have only done the basics myself, most of the big bits I have got done at the garage.
You can do the exhaust system yourself and the Tegiwa but if you want to change the exhaust manifold then get it done at a garge becuase you will want to change the engine mount inserts too which means dropping the sub frame. Some people have done it at home but unless you have got a ramp its a total ball ache, garage will charge about £100 to fit the manifold & inserts so for that price I didn't think it was too bad.
How far do you want to take the car mate? Are you just going to do the basics like exhaust, induction kit & lowering etc or are you going to go nuts like me lol?
My current spec is pretty high but i'm still not satisfied i'm thinking Cams next but I have been looking at Superchargers too so don't know what to do next at the moment.
Fast road set-up should be high on your "To do" list because it transforms the handling on the car making it immense in the bends, for a good set up you will need front camber bolts, adjustable rear camber arms, lowering springs and fast road geometry so your talking about £300+ but it's worth every penny.
JDM Rear ARB is £95 and is a good upgrade, get yourself braided front brake lines with Ferodo DS2500 pads and your on to a winner.
Spoon cat back with Tegiwa Airbox and you will be smiling all day long
Mine is running 242bhp at the moment and goes like hell, 0-60 is sub 6 seconds and the mid-range pull is much better now in every gear.
Need any more tips or advice just ask mate
how petty can they be!
