GTEASER Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 ^Truly sorry to hear that Tidal. Ugh, that's never good but sometimes endings can be great beginnings as I was forced to learn as a result of a failed marriage. I hope everything works out for the best.

Costa23 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Hello all: The purpose of this thread is to list mods for the 3.6R that do not overlap with mods that are available for the 2.5GT and the 2.5i. However, I will list Brakes at the bottom as there seems to be some interest. This first post will be updated based on new posts/feedback from other members. SPARK PLUG GAP FOR 3.6R .039-.043" I know that you said that this list is only for 3.6R mods but are there any mods like this available for the 2.5i such as an Ecutek tune ?

fredrik94087 Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 Contact Rob at AMR and see what he can do. Also, you can check wih McDowell as he is starting opensource tuning.

stevenc1703 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) I know that you said that this list is only for 3.6R mods but are there any mods like this available for the 2.5i such as an Ecutek tune ? Xtremeracingtuning, AKA west-minist, does open source tuning and he does amazing work. You just need a tactrix cable. Plus he's very affordable. He's a perfectionist tweaking every little detail. I've gotten over 20 different roms from him and he's helped me find problems that I didn't even know that I had like a exhaust manifold gasket leak.

stevenc1703 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 New data logging setup. I think this is the winner. I used an oqo model 02 with Windows 7 hooked up to my tactrix cable. It fits well in front of the shifter. http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/10/14/8edfa1fd48868dba410e1b0954967b70.jpghttp://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/10/14/18951ecb3320b716ebaf80689710bace.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenc1703 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I'm thinking about getting a LWCP. what do you guys think of yours? is it worth doing? how hard is it to install? how much is it shipped? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perscitus Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I like it. There is no power gain BUT the engine does climb up and down the RPM range easier and faster. Relatively easy to install, should take no more than 30 minutes. Best on a cold engine. I believe the price was somewhere around $200-240 shipped.

nadracer Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Didn't you need a special tool to freeze the crank pully bolt? I like it.

stevenc1703 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 (edited) What are the torque specs for the crank pulley? Also are our cars internally balanced? Thanks Edited October 16, 2014 by stevenc1703 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perscitus Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Yup, no vibrational dampening happening in the EZ36D pulley. The H6 is internally balanced (enough) to allow this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenc1703 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I'm looking into the raptor headers too, they are on a 2 month backorder so it's gonna be a little while before I can get any but I'm thinking about doing high flow cats and maybe just replacing all the piping back to the borla cbe. Will our car throw a code switching to a high flow and does anybody know of a good high flow cat with 2 bung holes for o2 sensors? Also what size is the header pipe OD?

Will our car throw a code switching to a high flow and does anybody know of a good high flow cat with 2 bung holes for o2 sensors? Also what size is the header pipe OD? Just shy of year 2000, there is no longer a thing called a high-flow cat (at least in California). You may purchase an aftermarket cat. I'd suggest a metallic cat rather than ceramic. Ceramic cats may become brittle and end up in chunks clogging your exhaust (personal experience).

Perscitus Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Raptor headers, custom header-back exhaust (still using stock cats but with 2.5/3.0" ID piping throughout) installed and tuned. Thanks to AutoMaster Fabrication for the design, welding and bolt-up. Thanks to AMR Performance for the tune. Pics and videos uploading. Gains? Approx. 40HP and 100ft-lbf over stock.

fredrik94087 Posted October 19, 2014 Author Share Posted October 19, 2014 That is great news for those of us staying NA ( which at the moment is everyone except the italian...forget about it ). I was hoping not to spend any more on the car until next year. Great work!

nstg8r Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Gains? Approx. 40HP and 100ft-lbf over stock. Just for comparisons, with just the Takeda intake (including aFe filter), HKS funnel and no tune, I pulled 180whp & 219ft/lbs of torque which I was told was pretty close to stock.

I bet your doing small burnouts now lol. 0-60 down to about 4 seconds? I was worried about upsetting the wife by getting these but seeing your results who cares, if I have to get divorced so be it. Are the headers 2 1/2"? I'm looking into getting cats. Edited October 19, 2014 by stevenc1703 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
