chriswoodfto Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 hey, well i woke up sat and thought i might change my fto, got a little carried away and ended up with one yesterday. its absolutly awsum. i had a gpx fto, 197bhp. and that now feels very slow compared to the glanza. the acceleration is awsum!!! im loving it already.its a black glanza V, hks induction kit,apexi boost controller. dump valve, (dont know make yet)dirty great sub in boot which will be binned soon as i get round to it. basically couple of questions. 1. anyone know how the apexi controller works as it looks pretty but id like to know how to work it.2. what free mods should i be doing?? (i read about the low boost bypass thing yesterday)3. anyone know the exact specs of the glanza V. was that the top spec'd one?4.it was tuned by rgb performance, anyone know of them??? 5.how do i change my name??? as i dont have the fto anymore.cheers guys, ive had a very big grin on my face since.

Jae-Glanza Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 ahhh man, i remember the first time i drove my glanza! the grin on my face was incredible, wish i had the feeling of driving it for the first time everyday =[ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LukeSR Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Welcome, ill have that sub if you don't want it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DavidAshton Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Welcome, lol at the FTSlow they always look so nice but just way too slow.Question answers1. Not a clue myself how it works, have you tried the apex website for the manual? Im sure it will be there and just be a case of reading up how it works.2. Low boost shouldnt be a problem if your using the apex boost controller, standard solonoid should be out of the question. Cant think of any other free mods....apart from gutting the cat.3. There was never really a top spec V, plenty have optional extra's though which make them more desirable.4. Never herd of rgb performance, cant see what they would have tuned apart from the boost controller.5. PM admin.Have fun. Get some pics up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chriswoodfto Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 will do, it might not be rgb performance, ill check the sticker when i get home, i think the tuning was done on the boost and the uprated (thing) cant remember the name now,lol. hopefully itll stay nice and dry till i get home so i can go for a preoper play as yesterday was very wet, spining wheels dont move you very quickly.

DavidAshton Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 If you have only driven it in the wet / damp it will be a whole new ball of fun when its dry. I notice it loads when ive been driving in the wet for a few days and it becomes dry. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JAG Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 The name RGB performance rings a bell not quite sure why but i recognise it for some reasonWhere you from mate?Also Glanza = Boost is fun I only recently just discovered that when i put my foot down id only been putting it down enough to get boost and not putting it flat + Turbos seem to love the gay cold miserable weather Quote Link to post Share on other sites
