dublin14 Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Even if you dont notice anything with the bigger piping, who cares as it looks so dam good!1 Its just different than what anyone else has. It looks like fat ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD snake going over the motor :tup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookforjoe Posted November 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 daytime pics I'll do some logging on the way home to see if there's any difference in hotside temps not much underhood clearance anymore... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiles855R Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Agreed pics of gf most be included with all post. Might be a long shot but reduce temperatures under the spark cover for coil packs and wires? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyb5 Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 I know he has had issues with the IPD HD packs cracking around the top of the coil, so along with switching to Bosch coilpacks, I'd assume it is to increase ventilation around the coilpacks in hopes of preventing further failure. EDIT: H, what do you use to weld/join the piping sections together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

854TGA+ Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Hit us with HP guesstimate. 550-650 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookforjoe Posted November 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Hit us with HP guesstimate. 550-650 Lol. I don't think so. Still at 4.34sec 60-100. I think that would drop significantly with that much HP. Maybe once VEMS is in place I'll be somewhere around 450. data logs two days ago Today, with all 3" IC piping. No performance change, positive or negative. Hotside temps going into the IC are lower. Throttle response feels good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dublin14 Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 (edited) What was the best 60-120 time so far? Edited November 29, 2012 by dublin14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookforjoe Posted November 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 What was the best 60-120 time so far? Looking through various logs, 8.5sec. That window includes a 3-4shift, which usually takes about a sec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dump Umm Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Yea I figured it was because of ventilation of the coilpacks. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
