  1. Gunter,

    R u using any ethanol content guage for the fuel,

    not sure about germany but here in the states we

    have winter and summer blend of e85,

    and its not to cnsistent in the stations,

    so when I tune on a winter mix wich is around E70 on

    summer blend e85 the car goes lean so risk of detonation

    or melting things on cruise can happen

    Also u can run much more timing with E85, do u have a way to do that?

    that will bring the egt's down and improve ur gas milege

  2. that's the only down side 2.5'' exit

    not familiar with it but it has great blower options for some one staying stock bolt on

    I forgat u have a bigger down pipe this should work for u if u wana stay internal wastegate

    its simillar what I have been using

    gt3071r should get u to 375whp and its a fun street turbo very good responce on a small engine

    also just saw they have a great exhaust housing option for internal wastegate

    if u whant to get in the 400s more efficient is gt3076r

    http://www.atpturbo.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=tp&Product_Code=GRT-TBO-020&Category_Code=GRT

    if u shop around can find the blowers couple hundred cheaper then atp

  3. on old or heavy rich running cars I put atf in the cylinders and let it sit over night,

    next day I put back the plugs and spary galon of water in fine mist wile running at couple thousend rpm

    throught the carbs or throtle and than change oil and filter,

    on the fuel system I buy galon of toulene from paint stores with

    4 ounces of mystery marvel oil in 10 galons of fuel run it till empty

    and change the fuel filter

    but 1st check all the rubbers like stated in above posts

    good luck

    I rebuilded my s4s clutch and pressure plate,

    the clamping load on the used s4s was around 790kg

    and one of the side torque straps set had a litle bend on

    the upgraded clamping force came out to 1312kg will c how long it will hold 400+whp,

    the thrust bearings will work hard with that pressure

    and the torque straps were replaced with better and thicker material

    hope that should take care off hard, high rpm heal and toe down shifting and on off throtle

    I relined two clutches I had in us for $120usd both

    and did the pressure plate in australia for $120ausd

    now if I can just put it togeather in the next few weeks and c how it holds

  5. u dont have to wory about the chip not being able to controll bost past 1bar,

    u will switch loop anyway over sertain tps, load etc.

    Marcus's chips r set perfectly all the safety fetures r still in place,

    boost vs water temp, vs air temp etc.

    what it does it cheats or fakes the map reading kind of like piggy back controler.

    also if u r running stock turbo I dont c the need to go past 1bar

    I would get more efficient compressor,

    with 1.25bar u will only gain power for few secs and than will loose power quick as it will heat up the air

    alot and u will risk detonation also the stock turbo wont last to long,

    more grunt with stock turbo the 1bar high torque chip i think is perfect

    more boost bigger turbo race red chip

  6. I have red line oils on all my cars drive trains for long time,

    even on a f1 ferrari box,

    I got my v8 last year shifting didnt feel good so put some atf and drove it easy till it got hot and drained it,

    I put mt90 in and shifts like butter drove it hard for 2k miles now and still havent grind or missed a gear

  7. David,

    r u having problem with ur ecu or just looking to upgrade the tune,

    not sure on the oem ecu reliability I never had issues with it or with any sensors,

    I did run red race chip wich I was very happy with,

    I did want more so I played with fuel pressures and injectors to get my setup

    close to perfect,

    if u need more than that I can recomend what I have done on couple of my cars

    and plan to run on the s4 hopefully,

    U can order brand new honda aem box after market ecu for $1000 usd and

    new honda plug and pins for around $50usd,

    and install it on ur xsisting wire harness,

    the reason I like aem its relaible, great tech support, very easy to tune and very cheap used,

    more features than u will ever need, all the sensors can be calibrated,

    just got one slightly used from ebay 1050 aem box, that model I had good luck with for $450 shipped

    so $500 plug, pins and ecu cant beat that,

    of course there r lots of other great choices but I thing aem is best bang for the buck

    let us know what do u have in mind

    good luck
