Re: HKS FTO
Speaking from experiance its still a stupidly rediculously quick car...
more so through the mid rev range... 80 - 180 in AJ's car is a virgin spurt away!
on the opposite side, bens car had the take off (where grip available) and the top end speed
would happily live in your car al you've done the car a great justice since you picked it up, you should be proud!

Re: HKS FTO
Thanks mate, I am. It still needs a computer to get it perfect so that's what I'm saving for at the moment but I'm very happy with it at the moment. Can you hear me laughing at the end of the video?

Re: HKS FTO
You ask for blow off sounds, you get blow off sounds.
This isn't going flat out as I have to come off the gas to get the blow off sound for you, but it's still pretty good.
There are 3 although the last 1 is a little quiet.
Hope you like!

You just can't do that as soon as you hit boost, you're up the arse of the car in frontaza013 wrote:I would not be off boost
I took HKS for his first run through the RNP today Check out the clips below.
In the first one at the start you can see 5 Ferraris driving really slowly and I go flying past in the opposite direction. They must be on that Ferrari drive weekend thing you can do. I think I was having more fun than them though!
At the 4.5 second mark of the first video you can hear MIVEC kick in, this is in second gear. At around 7 seconds I change into 3rd and you'll notice no 'pshht' from the BOV until I come off the gas at about 9 seconds.
Of the 3 pod gauges in the middle of the dash, the far left one is vacuum so if you look closely you'll see that moving a bit.
Enjoy.

Re: HKS FTO
Love the spooling sound!
Might wanna get a suction cup to hold the camera firmly.
Can't wait to see what it's capable of after properly tuned with new ecu.
Keep it up!! Will jump on it at next year's bonfire to feel the difference!

Is it true you keep a box of adult diapers in the boot?
