my slow project...

[99gsxjoel]

Well about a 2 months ago I bought my 1999 gsx bone stock with 101xxx miles, and the boost bug and got me. 2 weeks later I got an intake, and did all the "free" mods I could do, and a full tune up. Now waiting on the ups truck...

Aem wideband
Prosport boost gauge
Prosport oil pressure gauge
Cheap ass glow shift A pillar pod
Megan down pipe
MBC
Punishment racing FMIC W/some knock off BOV
cat back off of ebay :) I am a cheap ass.

That is it for now. I think I am off to a good start. After that I am going to see what a tune would be and what all I would gain from it. Or see if it is worth it being I am still on the stock t25.

I am not sure if I am going to wait for winter and just do a 6 bolt swap, or do fuel pump, injectors, and a evo16g I feel like that is the only thing I can do right now.

Pics will be posted as I receive them, and installing them.

One last thing! I have heard different things from different people and would like a strait up answer. Can you tune the stock ecu in a 99 gsx, and is that all for all 99s.
Thanks.

You can reflash the 99 plastic ecu's yes. It is possible.

Looks clean, I like the wheels! Now get some springs! haha

I thought the 98-99 7 bolts weren't *as* bad with crankwalk?

The 97+ 7 bolts cranck walking isn't as common as 95-96. Also, is this a stick or auto? Not a fan of the side skirts and it looks like the back bumper is a aftermarket one? Are you going to swap them out for some stock ones or keep it as is?

If your only going to be running a 16g at the moment I wouldn't worry about doing a 6 bolt swap at this time. Just my .02

Stock t25 for now want to put 200 at the wheels.

I was thinking of puting it back to stock but i am more interested in making it faster first. Some day i will put it back to stock.

I guess I'm not sure how far the t25's can be pushed safely.. 200awhp on shanes dyno you will need a 16g I would think but I could be wrong.
