Haha, for a short summary of what the mods done and how I feel about it:

 

+ It was free

+ Throttle response
+ Pull at higher RPMs
+ Mid range shove

+ Intake noise

+ I now have a slight crossover, nowhere near as wild as a B18 but then not as metallic sounding as say a proper intake on an EP3

+ Keeps engine bay looking standard to rozzers and people trying to scope you for races at meets 'it's all standard'

 

- Fuel economy (because you just want to hear intake noise all the time)

- I broke my dremel LOL

For real though, what else you gonna do to this thing because it still looks like every other EP3 with an exhaust at the moment. :P

Got a few surprise mods in the pipeline for this :) They're enroute atm in a container. Overnight parts that take 2 weeks yo.

Take it they're not from Japan then. :lol:

 

Maybe :)

 

In other news, ordered a timing chain, tensioner and guides kit for it. New manifold bolts (LONG story) have been ordered too, as well as a new reverse switch. Also booking my car in for a new b-pipe/midsection for the exhaust as well as preparing it for the goodies I've got coming over by mid December hopefully (in the shipping container today)
