TorqueSteer Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 (edited) Man that look sick, good luck with the nira install, is the harness universal and you have to wire it yourself?About the intercooler pipe, I also have a 2.5 inch pipe crammed right there in front of the radiator shroud, its so tight that it holds itself in place, its touching the oil and PS lines, but not putting any pressure on them as far as I know, ive had it for almost a year now and no leakage problems or anything.

Once i've got through it, i'll have a writeup for all the wiring connections for anyone else who wants to buy one. Gangster mark. Whos tuning it btw?? Id love to come check out the Nira setup when doneI'm talking to a couple tuners at the moment, but haven't narrowed it down just yet. I've been playing with the software and it's very user friendly. I should be able to get the car up and running without too much difficulty. Wiring it is the hard part. Some pics of the MAP/IAT sensor. No more MAF.

Keaton85 Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 haha idono why but doing away with the MAF sensor and having a MAP sensor in its place sells me right there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the ünderstüdy Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 There is a shop in Kirkland (cant remember the name) that supposedly has "the best" turbo dyno tuner on the west coast......PM Mitch (NWt5R) i think is what his username is, hes been in contact with Hahn and they wont recommend anyone but this shop. good luck with the wiring, looking forward to it.

BlackT5 Posted March 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 Thanks. I'll ask Mitch.Kaylan, is going to use this guy http://www.brianmacy.com/ to tune Nira on her Saab, so that's also a possibility. I'm just not sure I wanna drive for 4 hours on a basemap, I would rather bring someone over from Vancouver. I've been talking to a Motec tuner over there. We'll see, I gotta order some stainless bends and start making the exhaust pretty soon too. It's getting closer, but there's still a lot of work to be done.

the ünderstüdy Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 Ben (grebnut) works there. i can get his number for you if you want.......dude talk to Mitch, Brian isnt even recommended on by Hahn down in california. I think the dudes name is Jeff or something.....cant remember. Im gonna actually call mitch in a few minutes, ill let ya know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackT5 Posted April 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 Starting to receive some exhaust parts. I'm probably going to use part of a down pipe off my buddy's 850, will just need a few adjustments.3" stainless bends3" Vibrant resonator and some bungsJust waiting for my 3" Vibrant flat black muffler, a reducer, some pipe for the wastegate and still the 4" bend for the intake pipe.Currently sorting out all the wiring for Nira before I get started.

NGB Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 Lookin nice Mark, are you doing the welding yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackT5 Posted April 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 No, i don't have a welder but I have got a buddy who will TIG it for free. Just mocking it up will be a bit of a bitch, especially the rear portion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
