So this is going to be a huge update, so sit back and get comfortable Smile

So as I've said in earlier posts, I have been feeling a little bit distant from the lex and getting twitches to sell up. So instead I thought IDE put in a bit extra time and money to feed my need for change.

The first thing I did is buy one of these...

Greddy emanage ultimate piggy back ecu with harness.

[Image: 3BE488CF-0799-4F33-8160-CCD04B520F77-127...21c631.jpg]

I haven't had time to get it wired in, but saying that I wouldn't know where to start. But hopefully by end of June she will be I and running!

Also I had swapped my standard charger pulley for a 145mm from TDI Essex, however, today arrived my new 160mm Big Grin

Fitting:

The difference between the two:

[Image: 960F7DF8-ACEA-4BF4-BA5C-D51C9656642D-127...c763e7.jpg]

It doesn't look much, well it isn't, it's 15mm lol but compared to standard it's double the boost Big GriniscoStu:

I also bought some 15mm hubcentric spacers for the rear, the pics are a bit poop to be honest, but it has made a huge difference. On a negative to this. I had to get my arches rolled again, plus if I want to go any futher they are going to need dollying, no more room left at the inn lol!

[Image: 9D57F0A8-0785-4CAE-A66F-F695E268BDCF-127...e0e80e.jpg]

And my favourite part is I have this view in my side mirrors Big Grin

[Image: 9F42F6A7-3C0B-47CC-B91C-CE183D2FA4D0-127...46dff2.jpg]

The car needs to go in for a geo set up now as I have slightly more camber on my offside in comparison to my near side. Easy fix I'm told though Smile

Next I've sold my kakimoto 06&r backbox and managed to bag a hks super dragger from a guy breaking his lex. Nice rare part. It won't be this clean I'm told but, you get the idea! Super looking forward to getting this sorted and on the car Smile

[Image: 03E294BA-61F8-4BAE-94E2-1F9BD888E38C-127...8b75e6.jpg]

And because running this car as a daily is becoming a pain In the ass and the wallet, I've bought this little beauty:

[Image: CBA5072C-C974-44D4-A359-2C2C2AF3753E-127...1ec80f.jpg]

It's a toyota yaris 1.0L yo!! I've added some 5bhp stickers so it's probably faster than the lex too Wink

No major plans on this, just lows, bbs or maybe banded steels and some exhaust work Smile

Way cheap to drive though, it's more like 90 per month in fuel instead of 90+ a week in the lex.

To finish, my second job have been kind enough to give me use of a unit so with this in mind I got to the first real clean/detail of the year. Spent 7 hours cleaning this up, used a waxybox monthly. I'm not plugging them but visit waxybox.com, it's an absolute steal and the quality of the finish is amazing!

[Image: 0CC52332-EA26-4CB2-B8CC-625AC1AFBAB4-127...0d936d.jpg]

And after the clean...

[Image: C96F0A86-15CB-4449-BC02-C3D18C64CC66-127...edb3f1.jpg]

And this is how she currently sits:

[Image: E81B4B33-F109-49E6-97DF-738F1A340B21-127...ba3dca.jpg]

Gutted these posts only let you put 20 pics on :/ hey ho, ill save some for next time!

Cheers Stix for replying Smile you can be incharge of this for the next two weeks lol

Sorry for not replying guys, been Super busy with work.

As Stix has said phaebo. I'm just running standard kit at the minute, the emanage is a new toy, not yet in the car. I'm boosting fine and seem to have really good power delivery too!

My only concern is over loading the throttle body when my foot is flat which causes the car to stutter. But I have plans to swap it with a spare, to see if that changes it, if not ill need a plan b.

Thanks for the replies.

@ste176
The stuttering is probably caused by the small injectors. My car used to stutter a little bit under 2000rpm with foot down. But now i have bigger injectors green 1zzfe injectors the car doesnt stutter anymore.
Still running the blackbox from patrick.
I can imagine that the stutter will be more with a bigger pulley because more air in the inlet causes a leaner air fuel ratio
