Dev

 

oh noooooooo.... stan is getting some new stuffs for his 5speedstiwannabe wagon tomorrow and retune.....

maybe 300 torque at the wheels ???????????????????????????????????????????//

 

post that new dyno sheet up !!!!!

 

dooo it!

 

Very nice looking wagon, and nice to see a FXT engine in another car. I too want to see this new dyno sheet

 

I dropped by Gruppe-S on Wednesday to install a catless Borla Hush twin tip exhaust installed on the car. I figured I was running with a high flow cat. Realizing I wasn't "street legal" with that particular setup going catless was just a matter of degrees.

We got that bad boy on and put my car back on the dyno for "Majic Moike" to do the tuning. After about 10 pulls. We were all pretty suprised with the results.




End of the day we gained about 3 whp but 20 ft/lbs of torque! Took that bad boy out for a spin with Dev datalogging in the driver's side and that car can go! Pics of the exhaust before and after as soon as Moike downloads it off his camera.

What can I freakin say? Thanks to Soren, Mike, Dev, Dohmai and Preston. You guys rock. Please don't allow me to buy anything else.

 

my god 30 more lb's of torque? can i get another ride?

oh btw congrats again stan.

 

No problem with the ride... did my math wrong... 20 lbs more torque. I just let down the whole entire Asian community with my poor math skills.

 

20 is still huge for just a different exhaust! especially torque!
which dp did you go with? helix?

 

I went with the helix dp. The entire setup is just as quiet as the previous setup. Fun!

 

nice numbers stan...

 

With my car up on Gruppe-S' lift so often in the last three months, we noticed that the rear control arms on the my car were pretty badly bent. I gave a holler to Soren over at MPJ and ordered a set Whiteline Adjustable Control Arms.





Check out the pics. The stockers were pretty bent. Hopefully, it'll be a little more difficult to do with the thicker Whitelines. While the car was up on the lift, we threw on a pair of Perrin Solid Front Endlinks as well.

Devin suggested that I immediately go and get an alignment and I rushed off to Auto Innovations in Milpitas.

Steve, AI's ownder, took a look at the Kumho's that were already on and broke me the bad news. "I would prefer that you get new tires before I do the alignment on the car. Your tires are bald on the inside and outsides... )

Well, needless to say, a set of four (4) Yokahama ES-100's, balancing and one alignment later the wagon was ready to hit the road again. Brought it back to Gruppe-S and had Devin give it a quick road test. (BTW, Nice Kill Dev )
