I hope they figured it out and put the ring on during the install. Otherwise this whole confusion is going to mean more $ in labor for me.

Dyno biatch
Sorry, I know. I'm too persistent. |

well sure enough there is a small ring on the end of the cat, it looked like part of the cat flange in shape and color and didn't just slide off easily so we didn't think anything of it and that is why I called Stillen to question about no gaskets. This morning I yelled it across the shop at the tech to stay out of arms reach to be safe when I told him he had to take the cats back out
We were looking for the typical 3 bolt hole gasket used in the 2003 350Z style setup http://www.berktechnology.com/shop/u...oducts/423.jpg |

You guys had me in a small panic! I went and looked at my stock cats laying in the garage and sure enough, the o-ring gaskets are still attached to them. So I was thinking 'oh great, I'm missing gaskets between my HFCs and cat-back'. But then I called my mechanic and he reminded me that with the Berks, the pipe is flush with the flange; it doesn't protrude out past the flange like it does on the stock cats. Hence there's nowhere to even mount o-rings, as they slide over the small bit of pipe that protrudes out past the flange on the stock cats. Phew!

I got my results and its about the same as everyone else.
310WHP 228WHP http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3359/...c36f557108.jpg I am seeing if they have any pictures of the whole graph. I am a little worried about the torque number, but one thing that should be taken into account is that the car didn't have ANY time to adjust to the new mods. That dyno pull was done immediately after install. I have a feeling I will pick up at least 5whp after it gets used to the new mods. Then another 10-15whp with a tune. My Goal was 330whp. It is going to be damn close. |
What's WCF?

Weather correction I think?
I'm kinda curious to see what it will pull on a dynojet. |
RCZ, I just dug through your journal to get an idea of what you gained since your last dyno. I need a small favor though...
What were your numbers after installing the Stillen CBE? The only actual numbers I can find was 275 hp with just the Gen 3's. What did you gain from the CBE? I'm asking because I was just trying to get a rough estimate to the approximate gains. |
After the CBE, I made 295whp. So if you are trying to do some math, the hfc's and headers got me 15whp. Hardly astonishing.
So... Stock: 256whp Gen 3 Intakes: 275whp Gen 3 Intakes + CBE = 295whp Gen 3 Intakes + CBE + Headers + HFC's = 310whp I leave it up to you to make up your mind on the benefits of getting headers. I personally think they will be helpful once we get into dyno tuning. |
