the sprintex sc comes with either intercooler or non-intercooler. price difference is close to 6k, but with our hot weather, maybe the intercooler is a safer option. stock 86 is about 160whp. the intercooler can gain up to 250-270whp. non-intercool is around 220whp.
I guess heat is a main issue, so if possible an oil cooler would also be a good option.
looking at conservative tuning. don't want to push it too far. I love the 86's handling, but coming out of the corner just frustrates me. I have a golf 7 tsi, and although it's overall slightly slower, it actually feels a bit more urgent cause the torque come in earlier. and the 86 also has a torque dip around 3k rpm... it's like suddenly it ran out of breath....
I'm ordering the sc kit direct from sprintex, so I need advice for a good installer and ecutek tuner. sprintex advised me to go to ATS auto in sunway, but I'm keeping my options open for other installer/tuner that u guys know has a good reputation. tried to contact n1, but no reply. maybe I should give them a visit.
thanks a lot in advance guys for helping out.
