Here is a video from the dyno and tune I just had done.


I would recommend Martin to anyone in Florida guy knows what he is doing!
Made about 20whp with the uprev tune, well worth the $500 in my opinion!
Not only that but it fixed the laggy transmission in the 7speed which I hated.

My goal was 300 whp and I was elated to make the goal first tryDOMO

Nice g! Yeah the uprev tune makes the car come alive and it does help fix the lag. Congrats!

Even though you've been around awhile that's a nice intro, really nice things you've done thus far. Any plans for the suspension?
BTW, how many miles on the G20s?

Thanks blnewt.

I really want to lower the car but my last ride was so low I am kind of enjoying being able to speed through bumps on the road. I will eventually go with swift swings or kw coils.

My p11 has about 120k on it but still runs strong, probably could last till 300k. Gotta love sr20 reliability...no boost tho >_<

I told myself I would be done with performance mods but I really am curious to see what gains I get from stillen gen 3s and xyz y pipe.

Transmission fix

How did he fix that balky 7AT transmission? I'm having similar problems and want to find a fix that works hopefully without much cost.

Looks good! IPL sides match so good with that sport front bumper, gives the curve a nice flow around the car!

Martin definitely gets good results! got me 16hp at peak, but as high as 34hp gains around 4k-5k.

Stoptechs have nice bite but will dust more, IMO it's worth the tradeoff but those newer coupe 19s have a lot of spokes to clean, so that's your call.

Im just about due for new pads and NO WAY Im going with stoptech again
dust-tech pads

Going back to OEM, I rather have a little squeak when I go in reverse than all that dust.

Nice thread! Good looking G.. Considered white before getting black. Classy color. I would HIGHLY recommend KWv3 coilovers... They are capable of a mild and extreme drop. As well as anything in between. I love mine! - I just changed my pads and rotors, I got akebono ultra premium pads and they have almost zero dust and are a definite upgrade from stock. I did a review in my build thread. They work great, but I think I need to add a little more grease.... I do have a question... The Uprev was only $500? For license, tune, dyno and everything? I thought it would be more like $1000 O.o
