I'm running the 9lb pulley with impeller upgrade. The tune is pretty conservative at low 11 AFR, the problem is when it gets really hot out you can't push the car. Either that or you need to up the octane to prevent knock during hot conditions.

I'm seeing 9.8 psi with FI test pipes and 2.5" system, might see 11psi if I put the cats back on.

Been tuned 3 times x 2 different tuners. I don't know how this got missed. SMH! I'm quite disappointed with the results I have after all I have been through. I know someone somewhere will take a genuine interest in doing a great job instead of just getting my money. I just haven't found them yet.

Congrats on the purchase and sorry about the deal with GTM. In for results!

You could also add meth/ water injection to help cool the AITs.

Agreed. what engineer decided it was a good idea to put the maf before the temp and density change

1slow370 · 06-12-2014, 11:43 PM

Draw through isnt a bad idea IFF the mafs can support the new airflow, and you dont put them 1" from the most turbulent air source on the entire vehicle.

well it's either this or nothing for me lol, Aus sucks for aftermarket support, there's just not enough Z's around here

1slow370 · 06-13-2014, 12:35 AM

well there's always greddy but that's a lot more

jwick · 06-13-2014, 08:47 AM

Doesn't it still come with a engine warranty if you pay extra for it?

Its not worth it, You can get it but the second you retune the car it voids the warranty. I talked in lengths with them about this when I bought mine, I wasn't going to run their tune( made 42 more WHP than bolted) I was even going to bring it to a Stillen referred shop to get a retune. They said NOPE. You retune the kit you have no warranty. Owell. So I didn't get it, Trust me tho the kit is good it will make the advertised power( On a custom tune not theirs). I had one loved it !! I swap somethings and made very very good power on it -457WHP- but my dealer sucked and botched the fuel pump install and engine went on a vacation, Sold it all, and want it back now, I will have a Stillen kit again.

How would they know you retuned. If the motor gives you issues, reflash it back to their map.

I thought about that , But I'm sure there's a way for them to see the flashes on the ECU, IE how many times or something, or everyone would do that. Maybe their flash is locked and can only be loaded once or some other BS the dealer flashed it into my car when they were done. Its just an a risk I did want to try. I don't think it would have made a difference either way with mine. They would have found out some how that it wasn't their tune.

JWillis72 · 06-13-2014, 10:20 AM

They do lock their flash and they will not let you see it or use it as a starting point for a custom tune.
