No problem man, got them out of my garage, glad they work. Sadly, my pile of parts is still rather large, ill be going through it mid-end of feb and then posting up the list of stuff for sale. Car should be drivable by then too

Im using tunerpro rt with the ostrich 2.0 hardware into the stock ecu. Pretty much gives you the same as a standalone. Only drawback is that you still have to use the afm. But for $350, thats not all that bad.

How do you like it? Been remote tuning the stock 413 DME, just picked up an ostrich 2.0 myself, still need to buy tunerpro RT

Wow, looks good.
How big are your tires? They aren't hitting anything??

[Yamahammer]

tires are 225/45/15.

I can almost guarantee they will rub if i'm running it on the street. Should be fine on the track, but its gonna be raised a bit till I do some flares or something sketchy.

What turbo are you running on it? I remember you selling a 6265 exhaust housing awhile back. Is it a precision? I also spy an oil scavenge pump in the battery tray?

[Yamahammer]

Ya I am running a 6265. I was going to go to a T3 but then stayed with the T4 which is why I have that other housing kickin around.

Haha its not a scavenge pump, thats the filter block.

Having a solid base tune is nice, but if there's enough guys out there who have already gone standalone, it's usually not hard to get your hands on a good base tune.



Yeah Joe... post some pics of your build! haha

I will. I'm just waiting on parts. The car is a bit of a mess. I need to move some gauges, put some trim back together and clean the engine bay up.
