It's a JDM 4th Gen, BB1, H22A, Si, VTEC, 2.2 litre. It is more or less back to stock now as previously I had fitted a Skunk2 inlet manifold (which seemed to give no low end performance at all, in fact, it seemed to sap all lower end performance completely).
The Skunk2 is no longer on the car.
I also had a Greddy box piggy-backed onto my ECU which also seemed to create a few problems. One of them being poor fuel consumption as well as running very rich causing black soot and big time petrol smells from the exhaust).
The Greddy box has been disconnected and is also no longer on the car.
I have two items still left on the car which you could consider non-stock. The first is a SuperRace extractor and exhaust system and a Synergy aluminium radiator.
It's most interesting that you mention things working together because that is exactly what did NOT happen when all these things were bolted on. Adding X led to a problem with Y. When Y was investigated, then problem Z manifested itself and so on and so on. This was all happening last Summer mate and I was getting heartily sick of it. So much so that I really was at a point of getting shot of the car. However, with lots of TLC from the gang here, I got it back to what it was and, like I mentioned to Merlin, given my driving needs, it's perfect for me now and I really don't want to go through that heartache again.
The other issue is that I do not trust these so called "Tuning" specialists out here mate as I've been to four different ones now and each one has prove a right bloody shower. It's a pity I'm not in Blighty as I'm sure the gang here could have jumped on Blue Beauty and had her performing beautifully without last year's palaver.
However, if you've anything up your sleeve then of course I'm open to listen to any thoughts you may have.
Thanks for taking such an interest.
