Hi from Bulgaria,
I have coupe 2.0 97' and I started tuning it step by step...custom cai, exhaust system and 1.8 cam swap. My question is after these basic mods what will be the best for me to buy? I was thinking about 4-2-1 header, but I want some advice from you wink1.gif
Thanx in advance

A 4-2-1 Header would be a good idea. Look at Maintec, OBX, and Meagan, depending on your budget. JMan actually has an OBX coated and never installed for $35: http://www.rdtiburon.com/index.php?showtopic=33897

BBTB, any increased intake flow will help. Sharkracing has some: http://sharkracing.com/acecart/bin/shop.cg...;cate=010803000

While staying N/A, possibly either a 1.8L ECU or an Apexi SAFC. Tibs run really rich on stock.

After that I would suggest some suspension mods.

Thanx man, so the next one will be the header wink1.gif I will contact that guy ( hopefully he will ship to Bulgaria ) I will stay N/A and also heard that it will be good after 1.8 cam swap to combine it with 1.8 ECU. I have to check which is the good one , cause a friend of mine can offer me 2 ECUs! Can u tell what should I expect from that 1.8 ECU?

I forget where it is, but I think there is a big thread about the 1.8 ecu somewhere, you can check around for it.

Nice color by the way, I like that a lot.

I will search again, but I'm not sure if the american ECUs and the european ones are the same?! The ECU that I can buy from here is 39100-23600 and is from lantra 1.8, the brand is siemens. So any help will be appreciated wink1.gif And also what to expect from the new ECU - better mileage, better accelaration ?

Another question...is it better to chip my ECU or to swap it with 1.8 ECU ?
