Hi, i'm Matt

Ive got a Turbo EF (EF ECTIV)
Its running a Stage 3 Snort Performance Kit, with their Stage 4 manifold
Its running the Switch Chip Eliminator, as tuned by BPT Motorsport over here in WA
Got the standard 4speed auto with shiftkit
Got a KAAZ Diff with 3.9's in the rear,
Its also got superlows and 18' AMG's
Should be getting a EL XR kit and custom respray in next month or so.....

Sorry guys didnt realise you had to be a member, anyway this link should work:

This is my EF, it had custom airbrushing done on the bonnet by a mate of mine,
unfortunately the orange peel effect has crept in, so it looks shocking.

The WRX is my neighbour Brett's old car, built purely for show purposes.....
Its bloody unreal, the pics don't do it justice....
anyways enjoy

Read through the thread at Perth E-Series sounds like you've put a lot of $$$ in to this thing.

Well done mate.

Thanks
Yeh mate def put alot of dosh into the project, with the whole turbo kit, diff along with panel
and paint in the next couple of months, and the whole engineering process im going thru-
its been a fair whack to the wallet....

Sometimes I think I shouldve sold it off and picked up a BA XR6T, but then I'll go for a
drive in it, get a few comments here and there and I know Ive made the right decision......
I cant wait til it gets the EL XR kit and full customrespray..... Then Ill be happy with it....
for a while anyway hahaha

G'day mate and welcome. Very nice install from the pics!

How are you finding the eliminator chip and the standard map sensor is handling the boost? I'm looking at running one of these as I won't be running boost any higher than you are. (Have to be sympathetic to the t5 and ~175k bottom end)

sorry about the delay but been flatout with work, uni and the car, cheers for the comments.....

Switch chip is handling it all well so far, ive just had 42pound injectors and high flow fuel pump installed... Power now at
330rwhp-ish with no leaning out issues..... ;)

Last couple weeks been dealing with the bodykit and stuff.... Should look the goods when finished

Im planning on running full EL XR bodykit with custom front bar to clear the intercooler.... By custom I mean hacked to
shit neatly around the cooler....then a full respray in factory argon silver with blue pearl.....

Ok people I thort id give an update.... Last week the car passed a roadworthy, its previously been engineered, so now its 100% legal to
be on the road in all its turboed goodness.... :twisted: Im stoked that the whole situation has finally been sorted. I had a total of 4inspections :evil:

Ive also put the new intercooler into place, and 'modified' the front bar to suit.... All thats left is the once over by my panel
beater to fix up some of the dodgy areas, but overall I'm fairly happy with it all.....

Here's a few pics, let me kno what ya reckon.... The XP is my missus' daily ;)

cheers tickie mate, I got kustom paint and panel over here in wa to do the spray work..... Ive kinda done the front myself using the limited tools I got at home..... The front on the car now is actually 3 separate bumpers I had to hack and modify..... Ive just done what I can and leave the rest to the pros...... Plus I figure even if I **** something up they'll fix it :D

Yeh I'd like to see some 20's on it too, but unfortunately that wont be happening for a while..... Ive spent enough on it as is.......
