JohnBradley is it true that the 2012 GSR has a upgraded CMC have you checked on any of the ones you dynoed

 

Sit tight guys. I may have pass along some bad information. I was 100% sure of myself when I posted this, but these "new" shortblocks might have been NA 4b11's and not 4b11T's.

 

^ What company uses an N/A 4B11T? Dodge used their version on the SRT Caliber that was turbocharged. Both Hyundai and Kia use theirs as turbocharged versions. I thought only Mitsubishi, Hyundai and Chrysler were involved in the joint venture. I can't think of any model that uses an N/A version.

 

Base lancer, non ralliart, non turbo.

 

Uncorrected was 342 whp and 350 wtq. Temp was around 87 or so raining outside with around 80% humidity. Talking to Chris the tuner he didn't think mine was down on power and seemed to like timing as well. He also said if anything my car was stronger than other year x's. Maybe he can chime in and be of more help.

 

Well, after the worst attempt at leaving the office at 3:30 pm known to man, I got my 2012 down to Aaron to work his magic and help figure out these power issues.

Tried to leave at 3:30, left at 6:30, caught in traffic, didn't get the car loaded until almost 9 and dropped it off at midnight and got back into Seattle about 3 am. Yay.

PS, I was as quiet as I could, I don't think I woke Lucas up.

 

Timeout.

I'm not the internet police but please, take a deep breath and read what you guys are typing sometime.

are you trying to say you "passed" along some bad info previously? or are you saying you might be getting ready to "pass" along some bad info with this comment...
Not picking on you brother as your not the only person on this site that does it, but I'm trying to learn as much about this car so I can buy one.

 

Ok so you gonna let the suspense kill us? What did the numbers look like?

 

Oh, they just got it last night, I highly doubt Aaron has solved the worlds problems before lunch.

I think the plan is basically to start systematically checking parts, starting with the cams. They have my credit card and my permission to start replacing **** until it goes away basically. I can live without the Evo for a while and one way or another the car will get faster, even if that means dropping it off a cliff out of frustration, it will go faster.

 

pretty certain he means the info he previously said may not apply to the 4b11t.

 

I checked my 12 GSR lastnight. It has a metal casted CMC. Build date was 5/15/12.

 

!!!!!! That's awesome! Great that we have a factory option now =)

 

You mine taking a pic of this CMC location so I can check mine?

I know my build date is earlier though because I bought mine in Feb

 

If that is true...they will sell those like hot cakes to us 2008'ers.

 

wow I just looked at my 2012 evo x and it has the plastic CMC. My car was built in NOV. 2011. I wonder if I can get my dealer to get me the new one since my car is a 2012.
