HDDP are speaking of the Eram or the other one that takes a couple of batteries. I trust you so if you get an Eram so will I and will mount it the same as you.

^^^ Cool man, I give you huge props for actually DOING SOMETHING that everyone can take interest in. Kudos.

by the way, would it be possible for you to PM me some specs and equipment that you have. I'd like to especially see how you set up your suspension and motor.

Sorry to be such a noob.

^^^ Well there are lots of dyno charts that show 10+ sometimes 15+ horsepower gains. That's more than I ever got spending $2,000 on my Porsche using filters, exhausts, chips, etc so it can't be to silly.

Hopefully we'll see, I don't discount anything till I see it discounted for real.

Don't pay attention to the previous post... He's a manic depressive poster... Here's what I'll do... I have to get a dyno run done at Buttonwillow Raceway in the next few weeks. I'll post a base line with my current mods. Then, I'll purchase the e-Ram or work-out a deal to allow me to test it, then have another dyno run at the same facility...

Give me 6 weeks and I'll have hard #'s in a print out...

^^^ Cool, are you going to do the Super Eram? It says its 1.8 psi boost vs 1.0 psi boost for the Eram. I'm wondering if doing one in each intake is the same.

Thanks again

You know maybe you could get them to send it to you for free for testing.

I hear you. I'll do what I can. Your idea of putting one on each side is the way I would do it. I really don't think installation will be a problem. Stringing large wires from the trunk I think will be the biggest challenge. I forget the exact current draw of each motor but I think it was around 60 amps (someone correct me on this) but that would require at least a #6 wire. A 60-amp switch would be hard to come by also. I suspect the best way to turn on the motors would be through a contactor like an old Ford starter solenoid. Maybe they'll send all that stuff with it.

I'll be eagerly waiting for the results...maybe this time you'll actually go thru with a mod instead of just talking about it...

I clicked on there "dyno" results and just looked at 3 of the random ones under the Porsche category and it looks like no more then 5 or so hp is the difference between baseline and with the E-Ram. Even where the increases are noted on the dyno chart look odd...

For $50 more you can get a overdrive crank pulley from ASP...both a tried-and-true power mod and you'll gain more h.p. overall...

No, he has more suspension work. Swiping parts off of what my vehicle came factory stock with can hardly be considered "10x the mods"...

Go to there asp's website if your looking for info...

Is there a TURD on this thread again ?... Wait, let me wipe my boots... OOPS, now I have to add HOOSIER R3S05's with 18x9.5 wheels to my signature...

Swapping parts from the SRT6 to the Limited for performance upgrades is sheer economic genius IMO... Especially when they cost 35% less than the "AFTERMARKET" equivalent...

Seems like DC thinks so too... They are now going to offer a brake upgrade kit based on my work... You better get yours soon before they jack the price-up...

Can you believe this ? I'm surprised he didn't Hyphenate, underscore and put parenthesis around the words "MY VEHICLE"... What a geek... And the fact that he is alluding to the fact he feels like parts are being "swiped" from HIS factory stock car concerns me... This is a disturbed person...

You're right, I should have taken pictures of every modification and logged every hour of research and track time to suit your girly personality. Sorry I didn't think of you on...

VALENTINES DAY and buy you flowers MUFFIN... I only took photos of some things like Suspension Upgrades, Brakes, Racing Seats, Harness', Exhaust Manifolds, Headers, ECU's, Competition Tires, Wheels and the sort...
