The project of building Misha Smirnov's car (Fantomaskin) started with significant modifications to the hardware without changing the firmware. The car wouldn't go, it struggled at idle, and because of the large injectors, it spat out gasoline so much that you could even put a can under the exhaust pipe )))
A whole day of adjustments and test runs, then more adjustments and firmware tuning — yielded results — 155 horsepower from a 1.6 atmospheric engine (109 in stock):

Despite the fact that the car is tuned for track use (results in the link; onboard videos can be seen on Facebook) — this is a "daily driver" and even with very racing camshafts, it doesn't stall (idle is set at 1,100-1,200 RPM)
Below is the spec list of the car:
— front brakes and discs Brembo with Ferodo Performance pads
— OMP steering wheel, Sparco and Bride (replica) seats
— thick front stabilizer (21mm instead of 19) and C2 VTS arms
— 4-1 RaceLand header
— FOX 60cm resonator and SAAB 9000 muffler.
— Eibach -40mm front springs, CiTuning -60mm rear
— BILSTEIN B6 shock absorbers
— SIMOTA air filter
— Fidanza aluminum flywheel
— CatCams camshafts
— STi GRB bumper air vents
— injectors replaced with 176cc instead of stock 147cc.
— QUAIFE differential lock
— MA5 gearbox replaced with BE4R (MA5 will simply fall apart on such a config)
p.s. and we really want to put a TURBO on this car! )))
and it has already been purchased — so stay tuned! :-)
