V8 sti suspension

I've got a 94 turbo wagon.

Someone local is selling Version 8 Sti shocks, springs and top hats for $250.

Does it fit ? and how much does it lower the car.?

Thanks.

I hate the wood but it looks time consuming to get it off.

Re: glow shift gauges

I have the boost/AF in my car. I only thing I would change is the sound at start up is long and annoying. I guess I could cut that wire though.

It great for the price.

Fuel cut 10psi?

So got everything figured out with the over boosting and now I have it set at 10psi but I'm still hitting fuel cut.

Any ideas?

Thank you.

I guess the easy fix is install a FCD.

Re: I hit 20psi after installing new mbc. what went wrong?

I went for another run and seem to have gotten it down to 15psi but I'm not having any sucess getting it lower then that. And it's not hitting fuel cut for some reason. I did find one large hose that's loose after my coffee mug on the rubber intake that I can't seem to get back on. I will post a pic...

Re: I hit 20psi after installing new mbc. what went wrong?

This is why I bought the hallman so I could set it at 11 or 12 psi but I cant seem to get it below 15 psi for some reason.

I adjusted it from all the way in to all the way out and was wondering if I screwed it up.

I'm going to try again today with much smaller adjustments.

I hit 20psi after installing new mbc. what went wrong?

So I'm just running a 3 inch turbo back and upgraded drop in panel filter. I had installed a MBC a few weeks ago which would not go below 13psi so it would hit fuel cut in the higher gears and rpm's. I bought a Hallman ES and installed that tonight and hit around 15 to start. no cut. Checked everyth...

Sti Up pipe question?

Should I bother installing a Sti up pipe?

I already have a 3'' turbo back and I'm wondering if I would notice any difference with a stock sti up pipe.

Thanks.

Had to have the car towed. It was cranking but would not fire up. Car has been perfect for the year I've been driving it. I just installed last week a 3'' turbo back, Mbc and new spark plugs. I was hitting fuel cut a few times in the higher gears and rpm's. I thinking I murdered the fuel pump? but n...

Re: Just added 3'' turbo back and Mbc/hitting fuel cut. Help

Great answers.Thank you again.


What can the stock fuel system take once I intercool it? 15psi?

This is great car to start learning about all this stuff. I'm going to boost one of my bimmers this summer.

Re: Just added 3'' turbo back and Mbc/hitting fuel cut. Help

If you don't have a wideband, I'd suggest investing in one. I probably would pass on the RRFPR. If you can make it work, turn your boost down just a tad so you're not hitting fuel cut. The reason I'm suggesting this is because if you do get a FCD, you may be tempted to up the boost even more and wi...
