I bet if you used nitrous and had a backfire that piece they cut open would put a nice dent in your wirewall.

Looks cool and hopefully you pick up some gains with it!


Nitrous expansion plate ftw!

I'd actually put a nice hole in my radiator, it's in the front :D

Very awesome! The Rev3 did good things on my IX, and I know my basic ported IM/TB combo showed great gains on my X!

People have said the IM and TB aren't really bottle necks on the X's
The stock X TB is smaller than the stock IX TB, it is the smallest diameter opening of the entire intake track between the turbo outlet and intake manifold inlet.

You saw the results my friend gained by just adding the ported TB to his MR-T w/Green I think.

Most of the time a nitrous backfire will blow up an intake manifold anyway....


Chris,

Are you using a software like Virtual Dyno? You should look into something like that as you seem to make parts changes a lot and it can get expensive running to the dyno all the time (plus I know you street tune).

He uses the fuck out of VD.

Where the heck did you get that manifold from? lol Used I assume?

Oh I am not saying there aren't gains, its just a lot of people with bigger turbos haven't posted a ton of info on them yet.

AMS has said before they think the intake mani is very good factory and isn't worth upgrading. However, I doubt there is no room for improvement.

Post up a before/after in Virtual Dyno Scheides, when you get AFR's in line!

Added about .8AFR to my fuel maps this morning and the car no longer knocks at all. Runs solid like it should and the car feels great all over, but no amazing change from my butt dyno.

However....and this is FAR FROM PERFECT but if the numbers indicate gains across the board:

Also I now have a set of FIC 2150cc injectors...trying on if I want to install them and sell my 1680's or just sell them. Either way the money will go towards the new walbro DW400 fuel pump setup and a mil.spec 64mm TB....maybe by xmas? :P

Hmmm, I might want one of the sets of injectors that you don't end up using.

Preferably the 2150's but who knows. PM me down the road when you decide and we can talk.

Gains look solid, fatter midrange ftw!Tough to tell on virtual dyno sometimes though.

that mil-spec 64mm is the hotness too btw, I like that you are maxing the setup out!

EDIT:

Also you should be able to grab my AMS intake shield sometime soon, next few weeks so you can test it out and copy it if need be.

mmmm gains!
