How do you find the Apexi?

 

[Dale]

Turboness is installed.

Well, the car is running, it has no exhaust at the moment (so its quite loud)! Not really drove much and havent took it over 3K because the Apexi hasnt been touched yet .
At the moment im just running off the Fuel pressure reg, running quite rich at about 4 BAR.
Gonna take things steady for the time being until i can get a wideband lamba hooked up and see whats going on.

ive run a 1.4 with just the manifold and then no manifold on, was proper loud and sounded well funky!

cant wait, so if everything goes smoothly what sort of time scale do you think your looking at to complete?

oh and cheers, i would love a carbon bonnet and the jdm orange indicators. That pic is just something i did on MSpaint the other day to see how they'd look.
Ive got some tints sitting at home, ive had them for about a year now, never got round to getting them fitted!
