Has anyone contacted STS about kits for the 06-07's?

i noticed on their website they are giving discounts for anyone willing to lend their 06 Z for R/D, i was thinking of giving them a call.

 

Got my TestPipe and Water/Meth Kit Installed !! I didn't get a full Tune so the number is just preliminary. We didn't touch my timing Map and just did a minor A/F adjustment (touched only a few Cell in my A/F Map). I'll update this thread once I get a better Video (The shop took a Video) but here's the Dyno for now. I hit 9 psi at 3700rpm but my boost dropped after 5500rpm to around 7psi by redline:faint2: I always have this problem and my shop think it is because my wastegate is to big so it's dumping to much exhaust (I doubt it but maybe it is)... Once I get a full tune and run a little bit more timing plus if I can hold my boost to redline then 400whp could be achieved at 8-9psi (I hope )

I was only running 30% Meth and I don't start to knock until 12.4:1 A/F. I tried to increase my spray a little and Chit started to lean!!! I guess the Meth cooled my IAT dramatically and the 30% Meth mix wasn't enough to compensate for it. I'll try to increase my Meth to 50% and see if it help. Right now my A/F is around 11.3-11.6 and no knock.


The Test Pipe is freaking LOUD especially when WOT. The car feel a lot lighter now and runs smoother.

373.4whp/392TQ





I had to re-trace the graph coz the shop ran out of Ink. Blue is my boost.





Here is a Video ...

congrats bro!!!! anyone got any info on the new IC?

 

Video updated /\

 

NICE! So you have TP running to the stock Y-pipe?

I got a P1564 ASCD Steering Switch code yesterday (along with the normal p0300) strange.

 

at first I got the CEL light but I reset my ECU and haven't had any error since after 3 days of driving (around 120 miles). Do you have a Non-Fouler? I still have the stock Y-pipe and Mid-pipe. Did your car improved?

 

Just picked up my Y-pipe to go w/ HFC. Getting it installed and dynoed next Tuesday.

 

my god STS sound incredible.

 

nice vid..... with a built motor you get a different sound too here is our built C6 TT, it use to whistle now it is way different. Not the case on all applications though i know.

I just ran my car with the HKS EVC 6 installed.....wow. What a difference that made!

Full boost earlier in all gears. 1st and 2nd gear are totally different.

I need to mess with it so boost is stable. Once it gets over a little hump per say it is rock solid all the way to redline.

I probably could use a new tune.

 

i havent been able to find any 06's with this kit on them. id really like to hear from someone who has done this to get an idea of what il be getting into.

 

theprofessional started to install his on a revup...did not work out for him

 

/\ Were you controlling boost by gear? An EBC will probably my next mod.

 

No, I haven't hooked up the speed/RPM or throttle wires.

 

hhhmmm so a good EBC will suffice without using speed/rpm to hit full boost on 1st and 2nd? I've been looking at the EV6 and the AVCR just because of those features.

 

That I do not know for sure. I need to do some data logging and figure out exactly what is going on.

 

All I know is that when the throttle and speed wires got hooked up on my car the level of control was freakin outstanding. You can make it hit whatever you want in first gear.

 

daniel by chance do you know which wire they tapped for the throttle...I know where the speed wire is but not the throttle.

 

Did you move up to the HKS EVC 6 from the standard manual boost controller, or from the UTEC Boost Control Solenoid?

 

From the Utec BCS.
