So how about a catless pipe with a res. and flex as a option??
NJ 4years for EM testing and then all they do is stick a OBDII reader to see if you have any stored codes.
Not a problem!!!!!

That would be nearly as much as a Porsche 993 turbo

Shiv's dyno reads a bit lower than most. But as a rule, a dyno number is nothing more than a number. If a 993 turbo puts down 200 whp on dyno A, then to attain that same power the EVO will need to put down 200 on dyno A. You can not cross shop dynos. Just because carA on dynoA reads 200 and carB on dynoB reads 200 doesn't mean both cars put down the same power. The dyno is nothing more than a tool for tuning.

993TTs make ~300 wheel hp on our dyno. 996TT have made 330-350 wheel hp on our dyno which is incredibly strong for any production car. Ferrari 360 Modenas repeatably put 300 wheel hp down to the rear wheels. The last Diablo VT we tested put 350 down at all four wheels. Stock WRX STis have put anywhere between 210 and 237 wheel hp down. The Gold Bozzspeed widebody Supgra (yep, we dyno'd it) put down a ridiculous 600+ wheel hp several months back. We're going to be testing an F40, F50 and even an Enzo very soon. Looking forward to seeing how much those put down
FWIW, the awd Lambos and Porches can't be dyno'd on AWD Dynojets since the unatural fore/aft wheelspeed inbalance wants to make their transmissions jump out of the car

Ok, you definatly have our attention. Do you have any idea as to the timeline for the Stage 1 and any idea of price? I think the Stage 1 looks like what I want so I would like to know how long before you release it. Please.
To all the guys saying the vishnu setups are not loud enough.....
Thats all relative. I won't buy a bursher setup because it's too damn loud. I've had plenty of loud *** exhausts and as I get older... well I just don't want that anymore. Now if it were a track only car, I wouldn't give a ratts ars.
There are already a few loud turbo back setups out there and they are less then the signature and non sig series.
To me the signature series sounds perfect for my daily driving needs and I'm sure the non sig will do just as well. And personally I'm willing to pay more for a turbo back that doesn't make me want to go buy a set of earplugs to months down the road.
Big thanks to Shiv for putting out quality products designed with performance, comfort, and reliability in mind!

I spent 6 hours and 200 dyno pulls today with our Stage One test car. On the 91 octane pump gas map, it's making a repeatable 235-240 wheel hp. On the 100 octane race gas map (triggered by a flip of a switch mounted in the ash tray), it makes 265-270 wheel hp. That's a bit more than I expected but we're not complaining
For comparisons, most stock EVOs are making 190-200 wheel hp on our dyno (yes, it reads lower than most)Now, here's the neat part: Peak boost on pump gas maps is just under 18psi with a taper down to 16.5psi. While peak boost on the race gas map is 19psi with a taper down to 16.5psi.
Why not more boost to redline?
Well, the turbo simply can't support it. That is, it can't make the boost. Before the cam timing tweaks, the most boost we would see at redline was ~19psi. After the cam timing tweaks, the most boost we see is 16.5psi. The reduction of boost is actually a good thing as it shows improved volumetric/pumping efficiency so less boost "backs up" in the manifold. It's funny seeing over 2psi less boost while getting 20+wheel hp gains
It's nice to see the engine behave as dictated by textbook engine theory.I'll scan the dyno results (hp,torque,a/r,boost) tomorrow just in case anyone is interested.
As for availability, Stage One is available now for those who must have it immediately. However, with the plug-in harness coming out within the next 2-3 weeks, I'm suggesting waiting until then to install the XEDE. The rest of the parts, of course, can be installed in the meantime.
