Deadmau5X: MOAR Mods 'N Stuff

[mlomker]

Star Specs are directional tires so I'll have to call bullshit on that--many people run them on Evos. Then again it looks like I'll only get 10k miles per set due to track use.

Here is a comparison of Cobb's Off The Shelf Stage1 vs Stage2 LWG:

Going to get pro tune at some point?

[Rmondoh]

Yes sir! I'm hoping for the end of this month or early November. Just placed an order with our friends at MAP for an AMS LICP, so I'll wait for that to come in. Final parts going on will be a GrimmSpeed 3port, AMS LICP, and Synapse Synchronic BOV. Once those go on and I'm retuned, car is donezo! :)

Awesome graph, power all the way across feels good, doesn't it?

[Rmondoh]

Yes it does! Yeah it's a little disappointing that Cobb's OTS Stage2 produced basically the same thing as the Stage1 protune I got from Cobb back in April, but I expected it. However, comparing Stage1 vs Stage2 (only real difference between them being stage1=cat, stage2=HFC/test pipe), they seem to line up pretty well. I think if I had gone with the Non Lowered Waste Gate map, I probably would have been closer to 320whp. Then the difference between Stage1 and Stage2 would have been more apparent.

Stage1: 305whp
Stage2 LWG: 315whp
Stage2 (estimated): 320whp

Assuming I would have gotten to 320whp with 3 more PSI of boost, then the "test pipe adds between 10-15hp" statement would hold true. Either way, once I go get retuned, I'll hopefully be at 330whp since I'll be running 26-27psi and Calvin (Cobb Plano's tuner) will be working with a 3port. Hopefully that will give him enough control over the boost that I'll break 330whp, which was my goal from Day 1. :)

It's been exciting every step of the way and I can't wait to see how it all ends up! Then maybe after it's all done, I can go about life again trying to find a girlfriend and writing code in my spare time, lol!

Hello brand new nice and shiny LICP. :)

Just installed my LICP a while ago (using my brand new Craftsman tool set :D), rechecked the clamps, put her back together, took for her a spin making sure to throw down the hammer every now and then, and everything checked out perfectly! :score010:

Nice. You going to keep those worm clamps on there that are shown in the pic, or get some T-Bolts on there eventually?
