the problem you are going to have with that 2000 is the ecu. obd2 doesnt like mods and no-one has a re-programmable ecu for it yet. good to see you are in phx though, are you going to the meet we are having on the 2nd or 3rd of next month? email me @ AsleepAltima@altimas.net for more info.
they have a piggyback progammable black box for the obd2. it controls fuel management for our cars and can be adjusted by linking with a laptop computer. its already been used on OBD2 computers and works perfectly fine.
its the 2fast2furious meet here in az... i think chia is the thread starter in the local forums for az... im gonna try and make it there. why isnt anyone talking about the piggyback for the obd2? i dont have obd2 so i dont keep up with the mods for it, but i didnt know about that one at all...
sorry asleep im in the other end of the country, NY, but if i was over there i would go. well nobody really knows about this because knowbody really knows about rippmods. theyre a local shop and they designed this technology themselves for their superchargers. nobody in the nissan forums probably ever talked about it because they never worked on a nissan before. they worked with OBD2 on the galant or eclipse i think.
ive got a hotshot cai, its a little pricey, but imo was well worth it. you can go with a wai or a cai, whichever you prefer. cai's typically help with low end acceleration for better day to day driving while a wai usually helps with top end. id rather have the torque down low so i chose the cai. btw, cai=cold air intake, wai=warm air intake. go to http://www.southwestautoworks.com/ for an idea of whats out there for you. theyre local for you and i so if you need anything, call em up, alex and kevin are good guys and will help you find what you need. tell em AsleepAltima sent you. this wont get you a discount but it will let them know that the word of mouth thing is working. as far as exhaust goes, ive got a flowmaster and i love it, some people swear they suck on imports but its a matter of opinion really.
do you get any problems when it rains? how far out does your cai extend. i have a wai with a midpipe because i dont want to have to deal with any water problems.
we had the worst rain here in az in some years and it did great. never had any problem whatsoever. it fits into where the stock box rain into the fender, below the battery. i looked at it after the rain and it didnt even have any mud on it or dirt for that matter. i love it.
