RE: I AM GOING K04 FOR REAL THIS TIME!!!!
I think all the files are aggressive if you go with GIAC. But they pc-16 is for the pre 2000 cars so Elite your out of luck. They used to have the J31 and Hammer files at one point, when i was looking at which ever one was for the 2000 (i think J31) it was discontinued. I could be wrong but then again when they got my ecu they said it was special and there only way to give me the ko4 file was to give me 3 files, cost me 200 more but at that point i had no choice.

Im just saying, ko4 is good power, but you will wish you had gone bigger after for sure. I just get tired of tryingto drive in traffic and im in boost right away, its just no fun, i want my boost at 2500 rpms plus, so if i need to go i can go with a downshift. Its just an opinion, doesnt mean that the ko4 setup is solid and what not.
I'm make believe

The AEB cars are DBC and everything after that is DBW.
You have a 01, did you not see my thread? The ko4 to the ko3"s" is only rated 5hp difference. So its a lateral move, not upgrade.

WOO HOO!!!! I finally have a running car again! Just finished fixing the coolant flange leak and now my car runs well! No overheating problems and no more leaks (that I can see anyways.) Now I just have to wait 4 more days until I can get it chipped! I have my MBC turned way down (spiking at 10psi holding at 5) for right now because I don't want to run lean or anything. So happy! Woo Hoo!!!

RE: I AM GOING K04 FOR REAL THIS TIME!!!!
One quick question for you all...
I am taking my car down tomorrow to get it tuned. I have to drive a good 1 1/2 hours to get there and was wondering if I should install my new spark plugs (NGK BKR7E) before i leave or once I get down there. THe reason I am asking is because I will be installing my injectors and AFPR and will be running really rich most likely until I get down there. Will this mess them up? Also I am assuming I want to set my FPR to 4 bar for the trip down? Thanks.

Ok, cool. How long does it normally take to install injectors and the FPR? Just wondering so I know what time I need to get up tomorrow. It doesn't look that hard.
