I was wondering if anyone knew how much hp I will gain when I install my AEM cai, Magnaflow catback, RRM piggyback ecu, RRM test pipe, and the RRM header? And if anyone knows how much of a gain should I expect for each individual mod?

 

i'd say with all that stuff you're lookin at 1 second off the 1/4 mile which is admirable... you might want to look at putting the catalytic converter back on.. ur gunna lose a ton of low end torque running a full open exhuast

 

and it will destroy ur gas mileage

 

should i go with a high flow cat over the test pipe?

 

no, you should leave the cat alone. removing this "restriction" will kill your torque.

Look at my list of mods. the eManage is tuned to a 12.3 AFR (stock is much richer, closer to 11-11.5). and I JUST got off the dyno and made a whopping 111hp/115tq. my TQ "curve" is almost flat and the lowest it dipped was to 100 between shifts from 2nd to 3rd.

My buddy has 10.5:1 CR pistons, a reground cam, SRI and bested a 97WHP.

 

you actually got dyno'd EB or are you talking about your pocket dyno?

 

u only did 111hp? u should of stayed for my dyno...but i didt do it cause Intec is the gayest place ever....when u have a dyno day why the Fu*k do u take a 1hr30min break....i left cause it was just gay hondas ther and they shop guys were staring at the 240sx,it like they didt care to dyno and more cars. im probly not going back ther.....but i would have represented the Lancer proud.

 

OT: why does removing the cat kill your gas milage? dont understand why.OT

 

So I should have stayed while you sat around looking at homosexual hondas? For the record, the purple honda del Sol put down 270WHP on 8psi. Not gay. I left at 12:15 after being there for 2.5 hours

Yes, it was a dynojet 248. I think the head is ported more aggressively on the exhaust side than the stock cam would like, and I should have moved the AFR closer to 13.XX Fiddling with the eManage will produce better results.

 

just curious EB, what numbers was your pda dyno showing? i'm thinking about purchasing one, just so i don't have to run to autozone to pull codes

 

the lows have been about 109 and the highs about 114 - now that I've found a place that's level, flat, straight, quiet and long enough for 3rd gear pulls. Part of today's dyno session was to test how accurate the Auterra has been.... I'd say it's as accurate as a dynojet. Now I just need to get the numbers up some. I'm hoping tonight that I'll be able to do some with the more aggressive eManage map.

I had an issue with my RPW cam being lost in the mail, otherwise we would have had those numbers today instead And that shop that I took my TB to says they couldn't get it on the mill until yesterday... that would probably have helped some.

 

sounds like you got a plan man. can't wait till you get your rpw goodies and tb. well, i think i'll pick up the auterra than.

3rd gear pulls: how fast does that take you up to?

 

85 when I bump the rev limiter

 

97 with pistons, huh? Ouch.

 

fwiw I've talked with Boe some and he thinks I'm not being aggressive enough with the eManage. I've taken out more fuel and advanced the timing based on his recommendations. There's definitely more punch now, haven't had the chance to do any PDA dyno runs.
