Sub sonic build thread

I'm not too worried about it. I'm more concerned with the similar clutch slave bleeding issues I've read about, and my clutch acting like it wants to be swapped out.

Looking forward to hearing more about the new stuff you put on.

Have not been doing much with the sonic lately, been working on some handling issues among other things.

Going to hit the fall autox's hard this year.

I need to rebuild my suspension before I can run mine. You may get to experience the wonderful noises it makes on thursday.

So recently I switched from trifecta to HPTuners on my 1.8.

I logged the trifecta tune though hpt and recorded the PID numbers, trifecta was +34hp and +20lbtq over stock.

I flashed to stock, changed my MAF cal to being the LTFT in spec and reflashed my HPT calibration.

+30hp +31lbtq.

Both pulls were identical pulls with identical intake temp numbers.

Where I come from I am good at it........

I grew up near Noxen, if you've ever heard of it (Rattlesnake Roundup ring any bells?). It's a wonder I escaped with good grammar and all of my teeth.

I grew up near Noxen, if you've ever heard of it (Rattlesnake Roundup ring any bells?). It's a wonder I escaped with good grammar and all of my teeth.

I come from a farming community.

We are in the western side of the state, almost in ohio.

I will he the first to admit my grammar is horrible, but I am very good with my hands and a skilled machinist, so I do have something going for me. haha

We do have a PA meet coming up on the 8th in state collage if you can make it.

I'll just leave these here for your viewing pleasure.

Haha I know. A wee bit of sarcasm for you. Next time I'll make sure my sarcasm smacks you in the face

So as some may know, my sonic racecar will be racing in SCCA time trials next year.

I created a blog to follow the rest of the build along with parts I have tried and reviewed.
