Mimi, you're car is dialed in perfect. I wouldn't change a thing either.

 

Tom beat me to it... I thought the exact same thing!

 

I like your thinking....lol.....both my cars, except for the coupe has 240's mani's, are set up the same. Asa, the lsd's are in...we will go get some new times. I do need new drag radials though...but we will work on that as well. I'd say you have found the "sweet" spot....good job...

 

Nelson,

I also went with the dark grey tweaked manifolds and dark grey (matching) dual CAI setup. It is gorgeous.

One question though... do you think I'll have any lean issues with my existing eurocharged tune (sadly I am still waiting to get re-tuned)? As I understand it, a re-tune will optimize HP/TQ but the existing tune *should* overcompensate properly (add fuel) to accommodate the extra airflow. After a ECU reset of course.

Thoughts?

 

you will be fine running a code 3...

 

Thanks for the input doc!

I will also post pictures of my setup ASAP... pretty much the same look as nelsons though. I love the contrast between the polished SRT6 letters and the dark gray. I'll update with my HP/TQ gains as soon as I can get retuned (on the same dyno of course).

 

Doc is correct. You will lean out some, notice on my graph how the before a/f is leaner than the after. Looking forward to your results!

If drag racing it will only be in 3rd for a few tenths of a second...rest of your driving will be fine....I like the different look everyone goes for...it would be boring otherwise. I also enjoy how everyone has a little different approach of trying for those 11's....but, I staying with the code 3's...

 

Thought I'd post a picture or two of my setup as well... as promised.

 

Those are purdy.....wish I had purdy manyfolds like that...now, save up for replacement tars....

 

Clean, Mean, Running Machine. A good look! Can't wait for the EC SC pulley so I can keep up w/ you's guys.

 

Same here! After Wavetrec LSD of corse...

Looks great BTW!

 

This month I upgraded my CAI to a DCAI, AND In November I'm planning on getting the Needswings tweaked manifolds. the car will be retuned by Eurocharged after these additions, and I just want to be certain that I will not need to modify my fuel delivery system if I get the tweaked manifolds. What's your experience been please? Thanks in advance!

 

I did a lot of research on this. You should be fine with the tune.

 

You should be fine. My current tune (E/C) has me in the high 11's (afr and 1/4) with the mods in my signature. I have the SL55 fuel pump but everything else in the fuel system is stock. I purchased an adjustable fuel regulator and non regulated fuel filter but up to now it hasn't been needed and is in the closet.

Same here on the fuel Les.......and that is with 62mm.....

 

Whew! Thanks gents. Now there's nothing preventing me from spending yet more money on this awesome ride :-)

 

If you don't have a method to check the AFR's for yourself I'd try to get the car to them for the tune. My email tunes made me nervous. Jerry said they were safe, but I wasn't convinced, so he fattened them up until I was content. My car gets real hot racing and I wanted a richer tune for that reason. Not to mention that once a year I stack my 65 mm Code 3 with my 178 for kicks and giggles. Then it does get a bit lean up top. As well as tear the skin off your face.

Les

 

Haha! I'd like to keep the skin on the ol face for now. I'll get it tuned and dyno tested pre/post tune as you suggest. Thx

 

So it seems the "tweaked intakes" are worth the cost as per the returns I have seen in this thread. Do most of you also have the ported lower "Y" pipe also? Seems that item should indeed be paired with the intakes. From what i read it seems the peak numbers are between 10-15HP and torque at the wheels, nice. If the "Y" adds a bit a gain of 15/15 could be possible and the longer across the rpm range we see the gains the better. I'm glad I found something that had a decent return for the dollar.
I am still trying to source the 70mm SC pulley I want to run with the NW 178mm/PSK without sending the stock pulley to be turned in "Bulgaria".
