4090, I wanna boost it up!
Posted by 9D9 MITSU RS, Apr-21-01 04:55 PM
I WANNA GET THE HRC kit, with FMIC. I have an auto tranny. :( What all would I need with this? I mean, where do u get exhaust upgrades? What ALL will I NEED? I am thinking just run about 8-9 PSI boost until I can build my bottom end, so what would I need for this too? Sorry about the loads of questions, but can anyone help?

DAMN! One last thing. Would I need to replace any sensors or the ecu?

You can get any exhaust for the RS, GS, GS-T. There are plenty of places to buy exhausts. The vendor section of "dsm.org" has plenty of sites to visit. You shouldn't need any sensors to complete the kit. HRC is plenty thorough in their kit preparation. Be nice to your tranny though. I don't think an unmodified AT tranny is ready to take too much punishment. I am taking it easy on my AT until I can afford a built up one from level 10. I've got an HRC kit with the same FMIC that Hahn uses, but I really can't comment on fitment or installation of their FMIC kit because mine was put together before they were offering a FMIC upgrade.

I work in a domestic automatic transmission shop. Could I build my tranny myself? Are any parts available?

If you know much about the a/t tranny our car use, then you can modify it and improve it's durabilty. ie put a higher stalling torque convertor, modify the valve bodies and springs etc..

The ApexI FMIC HRC offers fits fine once you get it on there. It looks good too. BTW, if I did not mention it yet, I am now runnig an ApexI FMIC instead of the sidemount. Of course I was too stupid to take any pics of it. That will have to wait until next time I am in town.

Now I have a question no one brings up. All you guys with the star kit. How long did it take you to cut up your front end and bumper, if you even had to, to fit your intercooler? Hint - it can not be done in a couple of hours, right Armond ;)
