the lifestory of a DC5S...

interesting blog you have .. show us dyno sheet once its all tuned kinda on the same boat as you atm :P

haha well i wont show u a certain picture i have of a black dc5 with silver rpf1's then . 145 is awesome man, drop a few more kilos and it will be plenty of power to enjoy! btw ur taking e for a drive this sunday!!!!1

haha dw ive already seen the pic in ur thread of the pre face lifted black dumped and with polished rpf1s ..itll look good if i dump it but i dont wanna so yeh..looks like bronze 11rs for me..the unsprung weigh shudnt be an issue as the spoon calipers are almost half the weight of oem, same with the teins. with the exhaust, intake and header i should've lost quite a lot. And the only thing ive added is the lip kit which is plastic anyway

u shall know abt the haltech soon, should get car back thurs evening or fri morning latest. i think the rpf1 wud suit blue dc5s well, but for black u wud have to get it polished and im not fan of show off bling bling wheels. Ill still keep my stock wheels and put semis on them for track. Would love to go track with u guys but I wanna make sure my motor is all safe by driving it for a while first. Also I need to get a baffled sump. Dont want any risks.

do I need to buy hub rings when buying new wheels?

any1?

thats it! i pmed toda bout a dyno day but didnt get a reply, i should be around that mark now with current setup, Prash what numbers are you hoping for after the cams install and tune??

I was hoping for 150 but adrian said that 145 was more realistic whilst being reliable. He could tune it for outright power for dyno runs and drags but at the risk of the engine. Much rather keep my engine in one piece

just wondering, how much did it cost you to get the haltech installed and tuned?

I might be getting mine on monday.

Where are u getting it from? Its a standard price really. the ecu costs 2k retail so it all depends on how much u pay for tuning

wt mods?

Injen
Hurricane headers
Fujitsubo power getter

and big wheels which are shit for making power lol

Weight does make a big difference - no need to go forged, if you want lightweight on a budget take a look at Enkei RPF1s. Should be the same price if not cheaper than the Work wheels you're looking at, and these wheels weigh as much as TE37s in the equivalent size.

Not the prettiest wheel to look at, but if you get something in a semi aggressive offset will look good I think.

nooooooooooooooooo! i wanna get them first hahaha! i dynoed 119.9 with just gruppeM Yo lol

haha dw im not fan of them, dont come in bronze and cbb powedercoating them. the work wheels weigh same as oem even though they are bigger so i think thats my choice
