Zippy,

Your motor is like a math equation. What you do to one side, you need to do to the other. You tune your ecu to the max. and then determine what you need, if anything, air or fuel. Remember, fuel makes power. If you add and get to a lean position, that is good news as more fuel is required. And again, fuel makes power.

In your current position, I would not touch a thing. If you were to add this intake, you would add the ability to add more air and a denser air. This would cause your motor to go leaner and in return you would have to re map for more fuel and in return more power.

If you are satisfied with the range you are in don't touch a thing. Another reason I would not touch a thing is you have the Stage II set up. This set up is in harmony with their parts. I believe it would be easier for you to go to a higher stage using their formula than to start using parts they currently do not have programming for. Stephen could definitely add more clarification to this.

Can anyone else see these pics. I just get an error about 986host.com and a big fat "sorry"

Stephen,

EVOMS representatives are being blocked! hilarious

Actually Zippy was having the same problem, however he was able to rectify it with an adjustment. Something to do with his firewall?

PorschePhd 10-04-2003 07:41 PM

It is an Alliance. I am not a representative, SO LET ME IN hilarious

Well damn. I will check my settings.

Cjv,

Are you still using the lace up wrap on the intake pipe?

Thanks for the pics!

Since you wrapped your headers with thermo-tec it might be a good idea to do the cats also no?

cjv 10-04-2003 08:18 PM

sharkster,

I had wrapped the kats with the header wrapping and the muffler with the blanket. That was not S Car Go's idea, it was mine. Stef from Europipe contacted S car Go and told them not to wrap the muffler. I have sent them an e-mail and asked if it is alright to have the kats wrapped. Don't know at t his time, but I removed the muffler blanket.

I think it was David (VA) that was saying doing the cats would be a good idea, since they might actually flow/work better hot. Shrug. How much did your temps drop using that stuff also looks like you put on a few layers of it?

sharkster,

My fan rarely comes on now.

Mine NEVER comes on now (with the key out that is).. Apparently due to the DME being ahem "worked" on they claim they can't fix that.

My fan comes on with the key out when temps. reach a certain temperature. :cool: Who can't fix that for you? :mad:

sharkster 10-04-2003 10:19 PM

my porsche dealer.. the fan works otherwise.. they can't figure it out.

Alex,

Do you have a modified chip? Or is your temperature sensor probe broken. My probe broke once. It is very inexpensive and easy to replace. :)
