who's car is that with the TNetics kit and the SSV? Can we get some finished pics of the engine bay please
Also, what effect on A/F did the SSV have if any?

 

which are you referring too, we did three in the last two weeks. This 04 pictured will be in Sport Z magazines next issue.

We didn't do a before and after on the plenum but a/f was normal for the kit. We also took another G with the kit to 12lbs with no a/f change..that surprised me.

 

How safe is it @12lbs for a everyday driver?

 

were you able to get pictures of the OEM A/C lines side by side with the turbonetics one?

 

Did the SSV make any more power with the ST? So far I've been waiting on hearing the results but have yet to see any.

 

+1

 

I am also interested in which exhausts you are all using. I'm not crazy about how my NISMO exhaust sounds now with this kit installed. It used to sound sweet now it just sort of grunts and never gets to the sweet notes.

 

Oh ya

 

+2 on the exhaust question...

 

Tanabe Super Medalion Hyper was the exhaust we went with. It sounds way different from the Injen that I came from. It's much more quite. It does look like an excellent exhaust system and bolted right up with the turbo.

 

did you get the picture?

 

Where I live at 5,200ft we're fine,420whp sae corrected equates to about 368 corrected for our altitude with the TN tune a/f running 11.8 wot. Way below the rod danger zone.

 

No and there is two takes on this a/c line issue. One G we ran the stock line under the turbo and back for a clean look, this failed due to heat from turbo down pipe. The other we ran the oem line to the left side top of the turbo and have had no problems. This can be tricky b
ut when the TN G kit is available it will include an a/c that is about 4" longer and take away the guess work.

 

About 20-25whp with standard TN reflash,more if you tune for plenum as we have seen.

This calculation is based on a comparison to our shop Z with stock plenum and power data at various boost levels.

You got a PM......

 

so the TNetics standard flash was fine with the SSV? Did not lean out?

 

Nope

 

thats great news.. and you said the af ratios stayed the same at that 12psi boost level

 

hmm that's interesting. thanks for the reply. so you had to bend the oem hard line in order to make room for the downpipe?

in the picture below, did you bent both sides that's circled in yellow? if so, how was it bent? top one bent to the left and the bottom one bent upwards?

thanks for your help!

 

Insulation of Turbo

I hope you guy's are putting an Insulation Blanket on theose turbo's. Ya gota have AC...

Cheers Amy -

 

Yes sir...hte kit comes with a heat shield for the turbine side of the turbo...
