I thought that you had given up on the idea of experimenting with plenums ?

Boxtaboy 05-23-2010 12:16 PM

Jay, awesome video! Thx for featuring me and Mo in it too. Lol.

Let us know the resulting gains!

JAAY 05-23-2010 12:48 PM

I've decided to give it a try after seeing some real dyno graphs. Well see what happens.

Bladecutter 05-23-2010 03:37 PM

Jayy,

I hate to ask, but in the video, before you started the engine, you had a close up of a hand held data device, and you also focused on something on the dash that had a red background.

What was the purpose of focusing on that stuff before the engine was started, and why not look at them again after the engine was started?

I don't understand what they are supposed to tell anyone watching the video, and the picture quality went down after that point, so I couldn't even tell what the red background thing was supposed to have said, anyway.

BC.

JAAY 05-23-2010 03:41 PM

LOL like I said it was a quick video. The red gauge is the aem uego wideband and the red screen is my scan gauge tool. I was just showing people where I put things. If you want Ill take better video for you of what they do. Tell me specifics and Ill do it for ya. :)

Cartel. You have one. You tell me what you think. You think it works?

Unfortunately, I am not near able to exercise the flexibility that I had before in fully optimizing newly installed modifications, but from the few times that in which I have punched the pedal, it has left me with a **************** eating grin. The power is there, and if I had felt otherwise, I could have returned it. Take what I say with a grain a salt as your setup is different than mine. What to do next, camshafts and/or an enlarged intake manifold swap?

JAAY 05-24-2010 05:22 AM

I will try and take the car out tomorrow evening. I really want to see the affects on the a/f ratio if any. From there if there are any changes I can at least dial in the fuel curve to my liking. I will keep you all posted.

JAAY 05-25-2010 05:37 AM

Drove the car to work today. What a kick in the ass! It definatly makes the power where all the graphs show. When we we kick over to high cam where we usually lose power it now make a bunch more. I am not a butt dyno guy but it is a addition that you can notice with out a doubt.

Glad to hear buddy! Bar none my utmost favorite modification completed thus far. Did you run into any snags throughout the installation?

JAAY 05-25-2010 07:41 AM

Nope.. just like the video.. You saw me yank it out and put it back in.. That easy

I did not watch the video. Are you going to be putting your car on the dyno to supplement what you are feeling?

JAAY 05-25-2010 08:17 AM

Honestly, I do not think so. It is a dramatic difference so I know I did not lose power. I may hit the dyno for 2 pulls after the exhaust just for some numbers and piece of mind. But that is not going to be anytime soon. I know the car is running great because of the wideband so I am not concerned about things like that. I have her dialed in around. 12.3 I will post it up of coarse if I do decide to dyno sooner. There is no real reason to dyno if I am not testing or tuning. Just to get the numbers will have to wait. I have no time really event to get there and do that over the summer.

Glad to hear all went well for you buddy! I have no intentions of placing my vehicle on the dynograph until September when my next project will take place for a baseline. All the best my friend.

JAAY 06-02-2010 06:08 PM

Cartel.. Next project? Dyno? Baseline? Don't make me do it too!

Yes sir, she is undergoing the knife come September shortly after my birthday! Prior to departing to Mexico I was contemplating purchasing camshafts for my vehicle, but when it was all said and done, I was halfway to the price of the TPC kit. I should have done so for the very start, you live and you learn..
