My next purchase, help a amature out.

Hey everyone,

So I'm looking for some advice on what should purchase next.

I currently have

• Intake and inlet pipe
• RMM
  
• Access Port
• Autotech Internals

There is one restriction, the item has to be from cork sport as i have gift card for them.

I was thinking either corksports catback exhaust or something smaller like a short shift plate or oil catch can, since shipping can be brutal up to Canada.

What are your guys suggestions?

 

Corksport steering wheel. It Looks sexy.

That wheel is a wet dream for me...so much want.

Otherwise OCC or test pipe.

 

I have their steering wheel. It is amazing. I also have and love their 3" exhaust, too. But the wheel man, DO IT>

 

I do like the steering wheel from them, but is it worth $595.25(cad) it would cost to get one up here.

This sums it all up.

 

SSP or Test pipe...

 

So i was talking to a buddy of mine about getting the corksport wheel. His answer was why bother changing it just get



and be done with it and its much cheaper he says.....

(suppose to be link to amazon and steering wheel wrap above but for some reason is messing up bad)


it was face palm moment, what i get trying to talk car stuff to a computer nerd.

 

Beaded seat cushion mod versus race seats mentality.

 

Another vote for the wheel; I absolutely love mine. If that's too rich for your blood at the moment, get the race pipe so I can live vicariously through you for a few weeks until I have spare funds to buy my own.

 

I'd say go fast parts like race pipe, DP, 3" intake or bigger!

 

get DP and put these autotech internals to real work.

 

+1 for catless testpipe, depending on how emissions are up there in Canada. Or if funds aren't a limitation, just go full exhaust, including testpipe and all the way back. Make sure you're tuned appropriately because exhaust mods like this will have a significant impact on boost control/response.

On a good-flowing setup, you can see between 10-15 more whp in certain regions of your powerband with a full 3". Even more if you have a DP too. With my BNR S3, going from full 3" from the turbo to the stock axleback had me limited to 360whp. I finished out the 3" axleback section and on the same tune shot up from 360whp to 400whp. Gains are definitely to be had, especially on bigger turbos, but even on K04s.

 

+1 on Catless Downpipe/Testpipe.

Unfortunately, from what I understand Ontario(https://www.ontario.ca/page/drive-clean) has similar pollution laws as California. so catless dp and test pipe are probably out of the question as i use my car as a daily driver and it needs to stay legal.

Thanks for all feed back so far, i'm leaning towards either new steering wheel, or smaller items like ssp and maybe catch can

 

Ok well.. Catted DP then lol! Catch can is good too!

 

Lucky you, they only will do visual check and read codes from OBD and no tailpipe test, so you can pass with catted DP - still great upgrade.

 

From what I have read from cork-sports webpage not even the catted dp will pass California emissions, so likely it will fail up here as well.

also it's looking like the used auto tech internals i got are fused together(currently soaking in gas with hopes it was just gunked up).. so if i fail to get them apart with no damage, I may be buying corksport internals instead.

 

Yeah, used hpfp internals are on my list of never buy items. Just due to wear or previous owner fails.

 

Get the ssp as it seems any other power mod with you living in Canada would make your car illegal to drive.
