I feel like a little kid waiting for Santa to come. I have an order from FVD coming that includes: headers, high flow cats, FVD ecu upgrade, & new IPD plenum. I also just recieved my werks 1 airbox from Champion Motorsports! Should have everything by the end of next week. I know some people like to do things gradually but I want to feel the changes all in one shot!

 

good luck feeling the difference!! let us know how it works out

 

Sorry for my ignorance, as I am still learning about mods on these already nicely equipped cars.

What are all these components you are ordering and what will they do to the car in terms of ride or performance?

Thanks!!

 

Looks like he has the suspension mods done already. Check his sig. These are his performance mods. He is putting together one superb ride

Eathy,

You in the PCA? Would luv to see your car at one of our events. (jersey shore region)

 

Is the plenum already out for the 997.2 models ?

 

The plenum has just come out. you can see it on the FVD.us website. Rhonda from FVD is helping me get one of the first available. These mods will help the car inhale and exhale better. Should probably gain about 30 - 40 horsepower. I feel if you did it one by one you probably would not feel much seat of your pants difference, thats why I am putting it together all in one shot. Is it worth the price, probably not to most people, however it is exciting. Life can not be all about work and no play. I was never much a fan of forced induction cars that why I will try to take this one to its limits, in a safe manner I am not in the PCA but I am looking to join soon.

 

my giac flash, evo cold intake, evo headers with pse gained zero hp...40 sounds high

do before and after and report back - good luck!

 

thanks for the detailed reply. it will be interesting to see if you get those horses (hope you do). please let us know how it went.

also, does this put anything of warranty in void?

 

If I don't get the horses, you live and you learn. I am new to this and I guess that is what makes it exciting. I have never dyno'd the car and I don't plan on it because there seem to be to many variables that can alter your results. The car does run consitent low 12's in the 1/4 mile. That will be my objective testing on these mods. Can I shave a couple tenths? We will see.

 

those variables do have an effect - but its small....if you really have gains of 40 hp - it will show up. I hope you do, but i doubt it. Its the tuners (that dyno their own products) that tell you dont dyno because of all these variables...they dont want you to because they know what the results will be

 

The Werks1 airbox is a must-see when you get it installed, bruddah.

 

couldn't agree more, i've had similar mods and seen no HP gains with our DFI cars it feels almost impossible

 

Just flashed my car with the FVD software. Feels great! Installing the FVD 200 cell cats and headers, along with the werks 1 airbox tomorrow. Will let you know how it feels.

 

thats some set-up...keep us posted....how about a pic or two.

 

Keep us posted with your butt dyno results
