I recognize myself a little with what you say about power. Now, I haven’t driven mine on the track yet, but I think that when you get to know the car and have gotten the most out of the car on the track, you probably want more power.
I’m sitting thinking about which way to go for, NA vs. supercharing.
If I go for NA, I will probably go for K20/K24 as there is not much to gain from a 2zz.
Now I have some experience having seen both kits in action, the Boe REV400 and SSC.
The guy who sold me the Exigen sold it when his brother was getting rid of his. It is probably the most expensive S2 Exigen in Norway with Boe REV400 kit with standard internals and strengthened 2, 3 gears and final drive.(That just a few modifications on the car) The car have been running the kit for over 9 years now with out any problems!
I have tried it and the car is a bit of a monster! I can honestly say that it was a bit disappointing to drive my car after that trip.
The SSC kit should probably be the same as BOE, but that other car with the SSC had some problems with the ECU and mapping. A lot of it was due to an engine change and there the SSC ECU that comes with the kit had to be replaced with EMU black.
In terms of appearance, I would have gone for Boe’s kit as it looks more tidy and original in the engine compartment. The SSC kit has a slightly complicated layout for NA. But if you have a Exige S is much of the kit hidden behind the original intercooler.
I recently swapped my oem LED units for some GRP’s. But for some reason the indicators are flashing like there is a bulb out, not heard or seen this issue before on them. And they also didn’t on the previous car, any clues?
I do have LED side repeaters too but when I installed them a few months ago that didn’t cause a quick flash.
From your comments above, the only difference from your car with the GRP’s and mine with the GRP’s, is the LED side indicators. Could this be causing the problem?
I’m aware that LED’s in a none LED circuit would naturally cause resistance issues. But what doesn’t add up is that both my ‘extra’ changes individually work fine.
For example my side repeaters were plug and play no issue despite being LED, and the GRP ones in theory are plug and play, so both together should also equal the same outcome?
I guess the first step to do is to try a normal bulb in my side repeater and see what that does…
I’m pretty sure mine came from GRP with some module that needs to go into the wiring to prevent this. It’sa common issue when fitting LED’s, i can’t lay my hands on the instructions but I’m certain ebay etc probably sell the module I’m referring to (i don’t know its proper name) they’re not expensive.
Just looked it up, indicator flasher fast fix relay, you have to fit it under the dash
Can’t remember for certain as I fitted it a couple of years ago. Am quite certain the pin layout did however look similar to the one in the link you posted.
