Performance Factory: Tuned Sleeper Sedan

Thanks Performance Factory for a job well done. I am very impressed with the result that I have on my sedan.

Just a little background on the car. It is a 04 6MT sedan with 47K on the odometer. I bought the car new in 04 and begin the basic bolt ones. This summer I purchased a used turbonetics kit from a local shop owner. This particular shop owner is a Precision Turbo dealer and supplied me with a brand new SC61 instead of the questionable smoking turbo supplied with the kit. Well after letting the kit sit in my garage since August. I finally manned up and carried the car to Jeremy on the 11th of this month.

I just got it back this past Friday and WOW! I cannot believe the difference in my car. This thing is awesome and pulls very strong to redline. The kit made 377HP and 377TQ. I will post a dyno graph when I get it from Jeremy. I must now get a new clutch as the stock one does slip somewhat under full boost, but that’s ok. I cannot say enough kind things about the guys at PF. Jeremy, AJ, Eric and BG are all a great group of knowledge guys.

Once again thanks PF for the transformation that you all did. I could not be more pleased. I will see you guys at ZdayZ in May.

Thanks,
Tim

i have been on the phone with dynojet to figure out why at 5000 rpms or a certain speed, the graphs get wavy. it will do it on a bone stock car. it has to do with the speed pickup card and we are relplacing parts to try to get rid of that issue. it has done it for a while now and really is starting to bother me.

graphs should be a lot smoother and always get jumpy at a certain rpm on my dyno lately.

The kit that is on the car is the one that you all sold to Jared @ Naplam Autosports in Greer SC. I bought it off of him when he sold his Z to buy a Cobra. So thanks CIN!!!

Here is my first try at posting a video. I hope this works. 35 mph-135mph short shifting and taking it kind of easy.

Well glad it worked out for you. For some reason that kit came off my car perfect and started smoking after he installed it. I split what I thought was the rebuild cost with him, but I guess he just put the money towards a new turbo.

Thanks for posting a video, sounds reallll nice
