Post a sound clip of the vroom.

This one is ok. I'll post a better one after I get the SS catted DP installed

Further upgrades on the way: Hartge power module and Supersprint twin exhaust...

Hey bud! Did you use spacers on these wheels?

[Vinboyblue]

Was it hard to cut the diffuser?

[997paul]

The Hartge died. And it seems Hartge the company died as well. Sad.

But its prompted me to get the following mods started:

- Upgraded intercooler (pic attached vs OEM removed)
- Turbo upgrade
- Charge pipe and boost pipe
- Catless downpipe
- Precision raceworks ignition kit
- DME remap tune

Will post links, photos and dyno print out later.

Here a pic with the bonnet, roof and spoiler wrapped. Was bored with the white. Also fitted some brembo front brakes.

Paul's alive! looks good, sorry to hear about your Hartge unit. Can't wait to see your dyno and any video of the exhaust if you can shoot one.

Thanks!

997paul,
Progression looking good.

The plastic rivets attaching your fender flare should be white. At least mine are.

Hello Paul.

I have pretty same upgrade for my everyday f25:
- HARTGE ECU with accelerator boost;
- Okadaprojects ignition coils;
- Supersprint four pipe exhaust;
- Supersprint downpipe;
- Lowered Eibach springs;
- HRE 21' P40SC wheels;
- Brembo front Brakes;
- K&N drop-inn filter.


All this installed in 2012.

Supersprint downpipe (with cat) destroyed this summer so I put my stock one back and think about supersprint catless.

My future plan:
- FTP Motorsport chargepipe and boostpipe;
- Intercooler upgrade;
- Turbo TTE460 upgrade.

I have drivetrain and misfire errors sometime. Replaced sparks and HPFP but this doesn't resolve such issues...will try precision racewerks ignition coils. Thank you to this idea!

Could you send me a link to Intercooler model. Does it suit f25 body on a stock seats without any cut?

[997paul]

Hey HDBoss, nice ride.

I had an ongoing intermittent issue awhile ago with a lot of computer errors and some ignition problems. Turns out it was the main cable connecting to the battery and running the length of the car that had a loose connection. So make sure to check all the cables as well. It was throwing up a waterfall of ignition related codes.

There is as far as I know no off the shelf inter cooler for our F25 but I think it is a matter of fabricating a bracket not cutting. I'll post some more pics and installation details of the intercooler in my other thread in a few weeks.

Love the look! Have more pics of the new look?

how are people doing this quad exhaust diffuser

Supersprint has a template, but anyone with fab work should be able to make a clean, matching cut on the other side.

Personally I think a quad exhaust looks overdone on this car... Keep it looking sleepy.

We cut the OEM diffuser! I just cut mine recently, still trying to find nice quad 4 inch tips

[Victoracer]

Just to be clear, Remus and I would assume supersprint offer a template to cut it to match the other side. I was a little sketched out when I cut it, but a dremel and snips worked fine. I probably wouldn't have done it without the template as well

[335iAP]

Would not have thought they'd be that concave with pretty conservative offsets. Interesting

Edit: I meant the first set of wheels. Love the new HREs, think I may get my m-parallels powder coated the same color.
