Recently ordered a Ksport 8 piston frnt bbk ... but they are currently lost in shipping:mad.::mad.::mad.::mad.: .... word of advice .... dont trust a family member to get a product for you ... cuz if things go south ... you cant yell or get upset since your parents will desrtroy you :bomb:

Yea i know i REALLY need spacers ... but were i live its difficult to find... + i got qouted 400$ for set once:eek:

Im not that good when it comes to making the exterior look good ... i spent alot of my money on the performance aspect of my car... didnt like that it looked basicly stock :cool:. any advice on what can do imporve the looks would greatly appreciated :tup:

I also would like to see some more shots of the leds in the bumper :)

Nice ride, any more shots of the leds in the bumper?

Heres a look from the front of the car .... i had to cut some of the small "fins" so the LED's can fit in .... the i just drilled nails into the bumper to secure them .... i installed a switch under my steering wheel (dont always want them to be on:wub:) ... oh yea the camera made the Fog's and LED's seem to be different colours ... the are actually extremely close in colour ... i used to have 600K fog's but once i got the LED's i switched them out for 4000K ... i really didnt like the LED's at first but once i got my rims painted they looked awesome:tup: ...

Headers huh? Can we hear it?
Did you get a tune or are you stock?

Yea i will post a video of the system soon ... i was having some issues with the headers ... they were leaking from the flanges (just my luck:confused:) ... had to have them sanded down so they can sit flush with the gaskets ...

I am planning on getting the car tuned within this coming month ... so far i have been told i have gained no power at all from my modds:eek.: ... but i did get the sense that my ecu is getting used to it .. then again i know its nothing compared to a tune .... the only thing that has been stopping me from doing this modd is the fear of the engine life decreasing dramatically:embarrassed: ... then again i dont know much about tuning, my still has reletaively low KM's on it (~33,000) .... how was your own personal expierence on your car getting tuned?:smile (2):
 
No negative impact whatsoever. Engine runs smoother, better MPG (foot in relaxed position =)), and the HP/Torque increase from your mods and the tune will be noticeable (torque increase will be higher on the VK45 with a tune BTW).

Wow never really knew that MPG increase as well :rofl: ....hopefully all goes well when i get it tuned :biggrin: ... i went and checked a few shops .. one company offered to install a piggy back instead of having the ecu remapped ... any thoughts? The piggyback with an install and dyno costs ~500 $ .... another garage said that they car remap the ecu for 800$ ... my question is what are the advantages/ disadvantages of a piggyback vs. Ecu Remap? I was told that the piggyback (once removed) can restore the factory ecu setting :confused:


Oh yea just a BTW ... my brakes are dead ... its really frustrating to basically own BBK yet i may never get to use it since it is lost:mad.: .. yea i know i keep repeating this but its just SO ANNOYING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
