Oof yeah that turbo looks like it's seen some things lol.
I checked out the VTT website - looks like they only are for SI? I have a Hatch Sport.
I'll try emailing them to see if i can still use it in my car because i'd rather upgrade than get oem since it's virtually the same price.
Okay well i have made an appointment at the dealership where i purchased the car. Hoping this has to do with the fuel/oil dilution recall (but assuming it's not).
My question is: if i need to replace the turbo, can i drop in an SI turbo and not need a tune??
Is anyone selling a turbo before I...
So my turbo has started making a higher pitched noise upon spooling than it normally does. A quick search tells me it might sound like a dentist drill, which it kinda does and kinda doesn't. (Video attached).
I just had it in for service and they didn't say anything but i guess they weren't...
I quickly looked online at prices of:
Black - $49.8k
Blue - $50.3k
White - $52.3k
You'll be looking at at least $2-3k more in taxes, etc., I would assume. Not really good deals IMHO.
In theory, if you want MSRP or less, I would get one that is gently used within like 10,000 miles.
If you...
gtman, i just want to say thank you for your help with this. Between this thread and the main thread with everyone's experiences, I feel more confident in finally get that tuner off the shelf.
Thank you to everyone else as well - you guys' input is also very appreciated.
I won't have any free...
I see your point here... the phearable tune - which is from what I've heard from users here - is better. And if the race mode is only 100 more, that's pretty justifiable i would think.
Plus if i go with phearable i could just spend the extra 100 on top of that and make it a GOD tune... does...
As soon as I saw you start this thread I figured I'd hop in and get some questioning done before the thread fills up.
I am thinking about just playing safe and getting myself the TSP Stage 1 since it's on sale currently.
Maybe after a while of keeping the car in good shape with that, I will...
After testing and redoing, rewiring the speakers myself instead of using the harnesses - I've started a return/refund for the Infinity Reference REF-6532ex.
The site lists them as "speaker's 3-ohm impedance combines with speaker wire impedance for a 4-ohm load" so their impedance is just not...
I've had a Ktuner v1.2 sitting on a shelf for ~3 years now. As soon as I saw that FK7s were mostly the ones having issues it dissuaded me a bit. I really want to tune and I take care of my car, but I drive a lot and I'm already up to 150,000 miles.
Would taking care of it and being moderate...
So I have the sport hatch which means no Amp and only 4 speakers to begin with.
Crutchfield specifically recommended these when I plugged in the information about my car. Tempted to just return them and get a different brand. Kinds tired of them not working.
Tried chatting with an employee...
@calonzo Sorry, it was a long weekend. I disassembled the tweeters and accidentally broke on of the adapter wires for the infinity speaker. I am currently rocking a stock speaker on the driver's side and an infinity on the passenger side. Both rears are stock. If I go above a certain volume it...
I have the sportlines which is a 1.4" inch drop vs the 1.0" of the pro kit. I would sell and ship them for $200, shipping included. LINK: to my thread here.
Thank you for your help in this - as soon as I figure out what everthing looks like when I get home i'll update you! I did see your name popping up in other threads with similar sound issues so you've been pretty helpful.
I'm hoping that unwiring the tweeter and trying again will eliminate the...
Everything did not come as a set, i bought the infinity speakers as a pair from crutchfield, they are plug and play - link: Crutchfield Infinity Reference REF-6532ex Reference Series 6-1/2" 2-way car speakers
The tweeters were allegedly just add-on and would work according to others that have...
Unfortunately I didn't take pics before installing, here's the ones from the guy I bought them from on here:
He listed them as: JL Audio C1-100ct Tweeters/OEM Tweeter Panel Trim Kit, Crutchfield lists them as JL Audio C1-100ct.
