hey guys. well, it's been awhile since i've done anything/taken any pride in my car. i was starting to lose hope for it, then i had a really good day with it today. took the car into school today and threw it on the dyno for 1 run since i am in the power and performance class right now. [if you guys want info on that statement, PM me] i was thinking that i would MAYBE hit 90 whp with my OBX headers, injen cone filter (on stock intake tubing), and DC single canister cat back with stock cat. since there were a grip of students running, i ran over to the grocery store across the street with a classmate and bought some ice. when it was my turn, i put the ice on top of the stock intake tube and layed some by the filter and under the filter, right before we started to run and i got a WHOPPING 109whp and 118wtq . this was on a dynojet. needless to say, from what i was expecting to what was actually attained, i was very VERY pleased. sorry no dyno sheet/pictures. legal reasons for the pictures, although my teacher said he might let us do it next week, and i didnt ask for a printout ahead of time because i didnt think i was going to get anything near that.

next, since i didnt just want this to be a rant, i went out and took some video clips of my exhaust since i know not many people have it on EvoM. these videos were taken right after i got out of school.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ORnJ9qI9q4 < this one is from further away, and sounds a little cleaner.

sound with stock cat is actually alot better than it was in the video, my teacher actually said i have a somewhat respectable ricer exhaust (i took it as a compliment coming from a hardcore detroit muscle dude)

fitment was okay, rattles because of the funky hangers on there now, and it burnt my lip but its alright now after i adjusted the hangers as much as possible.

any criticism is welcome. hate, love, whatever. i just thought i'd share that i had a good day. thanks guys.

 

nice flip flops


who is the chick doing the mosquito dance?

 

haha thanks! $1.99 at old navy, and they are the softest slippers i've ever had!

oh, thats my girlfriends little sister. not worth it man, 13 years old!

 

Congrats.

One thing to note - if you were expecting 90, then you were thinking of a Mustang dyno. Your numbers make perfect sense on a DynoJet.

Back in 2001, Buschur Racing dynoed a stock Lancer at 103.6 hp and 116.6 lb-ft of torque on their DynoJet. Then after doing an intake and full catless exhaust, they made 111.9 hp and 121.6 lb-ft. So the fact that you left the stock cat on means your numbers are right where they should be.

Oh okay, thanks Sheep. I think I remember Amby saying he didn't break 100 with a bunch more mods or something, so I was thinking I wouldn't break 90 not knowing what type of dyno he used.

Thanks again for pointing that out to me.

 

I like how your exhaust sounds.

 

I didn't break 90 but that was on a dynamometer.

 

Thank you very much. Surprisingly I've been getting alot of compliments on the sound of it recently. Teachers and classmates have been saying it is somewhat decent for a "ricer" exhaust. Lots of truckers and muscle guys at my school

Yeah, I wasn't sure what type of dyno you used, I just remembered you being VERY disappointed. I also remember seeing low numbers, so I was getting pretty depressed, up until last week

Thanks for the input guys!!

 

sounds good again what exhaust is that ?

 

^ did you read the title?
