Re: Exhaust decision
Shit, im about to just unbolt the downpipe, but that loud obnoxious exhaust noise gets very annoying after a while. Plus I can't afford anymore tickets.

No, im only running the fmu right now temporarly until I get the 550cc injectors in. I was runnning the e-manage by itself at first but the injectors didnt have enough pressure when pushing on it and it was running lean. So temporarly we installed an FMU that we had and its not runnin lean at this time. As soon as I get the bigger injectors in, the fmu is coming out.

Re: Exhaust decision
Dave....I have heard that thermal does good work before, I think hes friends with Kevin("si"ngle cam) who told me in the past about his work. Thanks for looking out bro. I know if he touched your hatch, well....we have all seen the outcome, and well 600+hp, yeah, Ithink I will take his/your advice...hahaha. Love to see that hatch run in person tho man, sorry I missed the last trip to the track my car was all apart and I missed it. I see you at the shop one day soon.

Re: Exhaust decision
I see.... that's crazy man. What size injectors are you using now? I'm really suprised that the set-up is drivable like that. Normally, a tuned e-manage takes an input from the stock MAP sensor to configure fuel calculations. So, I'm assuming that you are NOT using a missing link neither. Just an FMU + a previously tuned e-manage.
Yup, I did Kevin's first turbo set-up from junkyard parts I had laying around. That was one of my first projects. That shit ran great too. How's Kevin? Havent heard from him in a while. Goodluck man. If you are local, come stop by and I can share of the the stuff I know.

I actually talked to him yesterday and Im planning on hanging out with him soon. Back to the car talk now, Im not running a missing link because like you said, i dont need to with the E-manage. My car actually runs really strong right now, I just get a CEL because of my cat. clogging. I didnt do the tune, actually "Gene" on here did the tune and the installation of the kit. Its just a basic tune right now that way I can drive my car daily. As for the injectors they are stock LS 1.8 injectors.
