Just received this in the mail today.....
It is a modified factory Porsche plenum....looks really good!
Hoping to install it tomorrow and possibly,if the weather clears up,getting out and testing it using my G-tech!
I will keep you guys posted!

Not sure if I will get 'smacked' by the forum admin. and hope this is OK but,
I received this product for a fellow by the name of Pedro of.......
Pedro's garage
It was really quite inexpensive too......I am hoping that it may make a bit of HP with the forced induction!?
We will see!
I am trying as many possible mods as I can to help you guys (consumers) and myself get some real good consistent testing for products....
This way we know how much hp/$.....
I am seriously thinking of trying the LWFW this winter too!
I just wish the GUY local to me would Gtech his car who HAS the LWFW...

I am picking up a G-Tech this week, and will do some runs. I've got the LWFW, along with just about every other performance mod other than meth spray and SuperCharger. Should be interesting. I can tell you, the LWFW definitely adds to the HP that makes it to the rear wheels, since there is a lot less energy lost spinning the heavier OEM flywheel.
Do I have to get my car weighed to get accurate info from the G-Tech? Not sure that will be easy. If weight accuracy and consistency is critical, I'll have to control for how much fuel is in the car, as well as what's in it.

I use a truck scale on the side of the highway.These usually weigh in 10 pound incriments,which will be plenty good!
Whatever is in your car when you weigh it is what should be in the car when you Gtech it!

If someone knows could they explain?
I hope this helps you out...
I do not do any distance runs as of yet because I could NOT possibly shift the same way every time,thus not knowing whether I have made any progress.There would be too many variables in a distance run!
So what I do:
I have my car weighed and program 'THAT' weight into the Gtech and do a run.....it then tells me the actual RWHP in real world surroundings.I shift through first and second casually(low rpm) and then hit the gas HARD in 3rd gear at 3000 rpm-redline.This way the variables are at a minimum.PLEASE get a fairly accurate weight measurement on your car,otherwise the numbers will be WRONG!
