what will you have to modify to make it work?

Scubaru Steve · 01-05-2011, 12:03 AM

i sent out an email to boomslang to see if they have anything close that may work, see if they respond tomorrow. id need male and female ecu connectors and a lot of 12 inch wires with pins... lol.
or continue to hack the stock ecu harness which i started with the e-manage.
if only we had an 03 echo...

Scubaru Steve · 01-05-2011, 12:12 AM

im guessing its not the same pinout that you have on the xa is it?

Bluevitz-rs · 01-05-2011, 09:28 AM

Have you tried running under the stock ECU alone and see what the AFR are? After I took the turbo off I tried going around the block with the emanage hooked up with no boost and STILL had the same bogging after 3000RPM. I unhooked it and gained like 20hp.

Also, if you're using those plugs I sent with the kit, I just took them out of the pack and put them in. So they're still the stock gap.

Glad to see the project up here

Scubaru Steve · 01-05-2011, 08:56 PM

no i havnt tried, id only have to unplug the emanage and close the circuit on the maf since it would get no signal. im going to have gap those plugs then, the ngk's dont come pre-gaped, all the updates will be on this forum since its a bit more active.

as for the harness, boomslang replied to my email, they can get me a harness for 199, pnp aem for 299.
so i know where im getting my harness from!

hopefully get the harness and fic soon!

Tamago · 01-05-2011, 10:59 PM

is 3 hours of your time worth $300?

i hope not.. you can make your own harness for much less if you're not afraid of a soldering iron and some shrink tube.

Scubaru Steve · 01-05-2011, 11:39 PM

i will at least get the extension, i'm debating on the pnp or not, i hate solding and wiring. we will see i guess.

Scubaru Steve · 01-06-2011, 04:50 PM

ordered the fic, here in a week.

now just the harness.

$350cdn, i found prices for 298 in the states, but after shipping taxes and duties it would be well over that.
i also re routed maf wires and pvc lines so that the stock plastic engine cover can fit back on, does it ever make everything look much cleaner! pics up later.

get a c-one management system should sort it out or try get the TRD turbo upgrade i am currently programming a supra single turbo to go on the yaris 1.5 turbo to give more boost so i will let yu know if it works to sort your prob out mate

Scubaru Steve · 01-11-2011, 08:53 PM

the ct-26?... thats going to be a large turbo for a 1.5, the boost threshold may be kind of high but the added flow will make for lots of top end power.

i already ordered the aem fic, should solve all my tuning issues and give me something to mess with to always try to perfect the tune.

Scubaru Steve · 01-19-2011, 10:59 PM

more parts ordered, pnp fic harness is on its way from boomslang, received the fic last thursday.
picked up a genuine hks ssqv 06-07 wrx kit, ordered a steel wield on flange.
hoping to have these installed and working real soon!

i did some cleaning up of the engine bay. this si how it looks now. still have lots to do but its looking better.

Tamago · 01-20-2011, 07:57 PM

Since Im turbo (about 50,000kms) I use the NGK iridium IX sparkplug BKR7EIX. I never gaped one, all installed straight from the box....

cali yaris · 01-12-2013, 06:32 PM

ALWAYS gap your plugs. It's silly not to do that.
