installed some gauges but so far the only one actually hooked up is the boost gauge. don't pay attention to the missing vent position stickers. they fell off and i haven't glued them back on yet.

Oh man.... I NEED this setup... I already have an AFR just dangling out of my AC vent But Oil and Water Temp (no boostu for my SCCA Class) would be VERY welcome additions...

Enjoy!!! You should most certainly enable launch control, set limit and recovery both to like 4-4.5K RPM and attempt on a clear open road of your choice

Installed my black clazzios with red stitch (nice subtle accent to the car IMO) washed, installed the rear bumper appliqué and claybared then polished my lights using Meguiars Plastx.

I was so impressed with the results I got from the Plastx that I gave it a shot on my Zeta deflector! It didn't take out all the swirls but did greatly improve the look of the deflector. I strongly recommend Plastx, it made my front light enclosures crystal clear and glass like! P.S. the polishing was done by hand so even better results could probably be achieved with a DA polisher.

OMG launch control. I wish I had money to buy a flashpro right now.

I'm gonna be changing my front bumper to GD1 tomorrow hopefully. It needs some cutting for the IC.

Well to be honest I didn't know there was a vtec window until I started seeing what can be done through flashpro but all I did was lower the upper vtec to 3000 and left the lower vtec as is. I plan on saving some cash so I can take it to ptuning for a tune or hopefully get in touch with dsm to see if he can make a tune for me.
