[Ron@cp-e]

changed things up a bit and threw on a set of cp-e charge pipes with HKS BOV
also swapped out my FMIC for the ATM piece. Really nice FMIC core!

That HKS sounds pretty cool especially with that exhaust. What exhaust setup are you running?

 

[dgtal36]

That green looks nice! Sounds great too

that's the cp-e race exhaust (single 3" with resonator + dump by the rear subframe)
The race exhausts will be available very soon for purchase

Did you have an aftermarket FMIC before the ATM?

 

[Ron@cp-e]

Did you have an aftermarket FMIC before the ATM?

yes, Full Race

 

[greg hazlett]

yes, Full Race

Not to throw anyone under the bus but is there a noticeable difference between them via logging?

I'll know soon - just buttoned it up late last night

The Full Race FMIC is great
I tend to swap parts a lot and try different things

I did enjoy how easy the ATM sat on top of the support rails with two simple mounting bolts
And how the connections are OEM positioned

Nice...think the charge pipes will skew any of the data you will see?

I don't think so
I had custom pipes from Full Race that are full length (eh eh) - their standard kit only includes a cold side full replacement with a hot side adapter for use with the OEM hot side plastic pipe

The only charge pipe difference is the diameter of the cold side
Full Race is 2.5" from IC core to throttle body where the coupler is a 2.5" to 2.75" transition

CPE's cold side is 3" with a 3" to 2.75" transition at the TB

both Full race and the CPE hot side pipes are 2.5" from turbo to IC core

 

[greg hazlett]

Good data, thanks!

Love the higher pitch the HKS BOV makes

Love the higher pitch the HKS BOV makes

yeah the ricer in me likes it too
if the car had the MT-82 I would probably make another choice

I was this close to over-nighting this HKS BOV from Japan

:shocked:
