buy an ap2 I made 207whp with a pansy ass fan (i think i would've pulled harder if the fan was a little better)

 

Gears don't increase HP. I made 213.8rwhp on my AP1 with just intake/exhaust. 230 is much harder to hit. Don't let these Ap2 owners annoy u, they're just upset that they're car is depreciating 6 times as fast as your Ap1 is.

 

so what your saying is you wanna go slow

im just messing, im in the same boat, but getting closer to FI. do a few mods, get a tune, some gears cuase ap1s have deep gears, and your moving

 

ya for sure ap1 9k redline FTW, just 200 RWHP is all i want i drive a sti so ya i have the power but 200 to the wheels i would really like to have so you think with


intake
header
test pipe i might get there.

 

As others have said, 200 whp doesn't require much. Here's my '02's dyno from Fall Colors '05 (completely stock, maybe 12K miles on her):

ok cool so i/h/tp should get me there

 

This task should be relatively easy.

From what I have seen, it won't take much.

1. Intake (AEM, Fujita, Etc.)

2. Full Exhaust (Header, Test Pipe/ HFC, Cat Back)

3. VAFC (If you're on a budget) or AEM EMS (If you want the most power)

4. Gears (Also depends on your budget, but if you can swing them, 4.56 would probably be the way to go)

All in all, the combination of those would give you a very, very fun car.

 

i dont want a cat-back i want to stay stock and no tune at all ..
intake
test pipe and maybe header would get me there.

 

lol
Looks like we got ouselves another one!
35 days and making friends.

 

02 and 03 ecu are the same. 00-01 had the old fuel maps...02-03 got the revised maps.
