I cant believe how many nuts and bunch of things this came with. My dad is going to freak out when he sees all of this lol. Nope, i cant do this by myself.
Anyone know of a good website that translates english to spanish so i can write it out? Anything else besides, freetranslation.com | | | | | 10-20-2006, 02:59 AM | #3 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Melbourne, Fl/Athens, AL Posts: 393 |

read the manual multiple times before you start.
i also layed out all of the parts and took pictures of them with bag numbers visable before i started anything
go through and check that you have all of the parts (i was missing a bag)
I did it myself with help from a friend (neither had done this sort of stuff before) and if it wasn't for mailing my DME to america for NickG to re-program we could have done it over the weekend (including putting in a short shifter).
What ever you do, don't rush it, check everything before you go on to the next step, take lost of pictures and lable everything.
If it takes you a weekend well done, if it takes two weekends then who cares.. it's still done and you did it yourself

Almost done. For sure this weekend. Im getting payed good at my new job and im going to save my money for an intercooler.
How much do you guys think an intercooler might cost? About how much HP gain, and will i get torque gain? Thx. Still thinking about the stg 3 software and 10psi pulley but i dont know. The 10psi pulley isnt much of a HP and torque gain is it? | | | | | 10-27-2006, 07:09 AM | #11 | | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2004 Location: SoCal Posts: 549 |

Good luck, mang! | Ohhh ggg, wow just 14 bucks  ? Oh Man, in that cuz, why have you been so cheap and not done this mod yourself if its that many horses and a fairly good price? Or are you saving those 14 dollars to fix your busted headlight?   | | | | | 10-27-2006, 02:08 PM | #13 | | doesn't care about you. Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Denver, CO Posts: 3,925 |

And honestly, just an intercooler isn't going to get you any power. Maybe 1 or 2, but nothing major. It will just keep the supercharger air flow cooler so that you don't experience pre-detonation. Which is only going to be an issue if you try to push more than 10PSI of boost. Which you would need custom programming for.. I would say it would cost you well over 1500$(that is what IAAS had the parts for), and then whatever it costs to get the custom ECU, $1000+, and the extra hardware to make the supercharger push most boost... You should have done more research because you really can't get a lot more power out of a DASC without spending a lot of money and doing some custom work. I've yet to see pictures of a fully functioning and road proven intercooler for a DASC on an m42 or m44. | | | | | 10-27-2006, 03:47 PM | #15 | | doesn't care about you.

I run a little extra boost and a lot more gas for some additional power, but it's not much. I should really get my car dyno'd.... Note: Don't crank up the boost unless you know what you are doing. __________________
