Ark Design ABC (Active Boost Controller) Review

Ark Design Active Boost Controller Review

So I took my car over to Unit18 and got the Ark Design ABC, MFD, and RST hooked up, along with my three HKS Power Gauges. It was half a day of Ali messing around in the passenger footwell whilst I helped where I could, but I’m very happy with the finished article.

One of my 2012 projects was to overhaul the Nissan’s interior; this meant new monitoring equipment, amongst a few other things. I opted for an ARK Design Advanced Boost Controller, Rev Shift Timer, and Multi Function Dash.

S14 – First Drive of 2012

S14

The sun finally showed its face in the UK. This meant car geeks across the land, including myself, took their projects (read: moneypits) out of hibernation to remind themselves of that weird love/hate relationship they share with their vehicles.

2012 Plans for the 200SX

S14 200sx

2011 was pretty quiet on the car modification front. I plan to change that this year; the parts stockpile is growing, and I’ve got some plans to make sure the 200SX is driving exactly how I want it to by the end of the season. Today is the first day of spring, and the car is officially out of hibernation and back on the road.

FD3S

FD RX7 FD3S

A good friend of mine gave me a ride to the last Stanceworks meet. Unfortunately I didn’t get an opportunity to get any good snaps of his car (why do I always neglect the car I arrive in?). Despite this, his FD is pretty much a big deal. Subtle on the outside, savage where it counts. Riding in cars like this often makes me think that I got enthusiastic about the wrong chassis! Anyway, I’ll be pushing Ryan to invest in some RPF1s, and hopefully there will be a full photoshoot on the cards ASAP.

It was a beautiful day on Sunday, so I walked over to the local supermarket carpark to check out this month’s Honda Culture meet. There were some insanely clean Hondas, and a few really nice VWs too.
