Hmmmmmm.....

If only I didn't have student loans

Wish I could but house comes first, if that looks ok and still room on budget I might think about it but I know wife needs a new car soon too.

mithiral67 · 12-11-2012, 11:14 AM

I want to knock the dynos out quickly before the weather gets bad, but if I defer the second one, I have time to get a custom 93 oct and e30 map.

Mr. Nice · 12-11-2012, 11:25 AM

RaceBlood · 12-11-2012, 11:33 AM

Thx Gary...one more thing to know, and not be a victim.

mithiral67 · 12-11-2012, 11:45 AM

No, its an IS ecu.

Markyd83 · 12-11-2012, 11:54 AM

any idea what the sos malfuction means on our cars? it overtakes the speakers and i cant play music in the car. It is really annoying and it makes it sound like my speakers are gonna pop when it happens

kyleb350 · 12-11-2012, 11:55 AM

I guess these cars were supposed to be relatively equal. Methinks someone underrated their car

were you gonna try the default e30 maps or do you only want to run a custom one?

Markyd83 · 12-11-2012, 11:57 AM

underrated is a statement I think! I just noticed but do you have a 2013 focus st? My buddy has been talking about getting one of them

mithiral67 · 12-11-2012, 12:00 PM

Doing an Etune, so start with the OTS maps, run logs, email to them, they send me new maps, repeat.

Yeah, I've had it for a couple months now, and it's been pretty fun and held up well so far (as I would expect). I plan to make it my main car for a couple years, have it paid off, then make it my daily as I'll start to look for an F32/82. The aftermarket is starting to boom. Cobb is releasing their AP and people are testing out turbo upgrades already.

Not a bad idea. Is it peppy or how does it drive. He has been looking at those, the frs/brz, and waiting on the new fiesta turbo. His brother bought an abarth turbo and it is pretty interesting to drive I will say. He has an insanely fast bike for speed but wants something still semi fun to drive and new and under 30K

Only when I look in the side mirrors.

mithiral67 · 12-11-2012, 12:31 PM

So, on cold starts I am getting a slightly rough idle, doesnt feel like a mis-fire, but a slight hesitation. Clears up after about 20 seconds. Old car did it every once in a while when sitting at a light. Maybe need to get it in this week. Last car needed a new HPFP at 2k miles, maybe I need one here too.
