SCRIBR Yaris member Member 4,486 Member For: 19y 27d Gender: Male Posted 31/05/07 06:10 AM Share Posted 31/05/07 06:10 AM Well I took my car to NIZPRO last night to have my generic tunes assessed on the dyno.I will post up graphs tonight after work.. car made 239rwkw on 10psi.. but the advance etc was all over the place!! ... I know.. that's why its generic Simon was less than impressed & advised I run the 220rwkw 8psi until I can get a custom tune ("..but I wouldn't run it with a mate in the car, pulling a boat on a hot day that's for sure")So I plan to get nizpro tune ASAP!once I get my injectors this weekend, I can book my car in.My question is.. without thinking of more power, and more about reliable power.. do I need a cat and/or a cooler (process west stg 2) now?I assume every1 will just say "get both".. but we dont all own companies Thanks Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/35434-what-mods-do-i-need/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 31/05/07 06:20 AM Share Posted 31/05/07 06:20 AM (edited) Aamzing about the tune though. that's about the 6th one I have heard of.As for mods, a cat will give you more power, but any sustained right foot action will see you robbed of power due to massive heatsoak.Just get both!

Fat-Tony Member 5,364 Member For: 19y 3m 27d Posted 31/05/07 07:21 AM Share Posted 31/05/07 07:21 AM (edited) I agree with BFHOON The intercooler will give you wayyyyyyy more consistency, and the power levels will kepp you happy for a long time. Although I have seen plenty of back to back tests on the dyno with logs to prove this and my own testing on a previous car I built and tuned using my inlet temp sensor and the aftermarket ecu I installed but don't take my word for it. I apparently have no idea.

Adam Here since the start... Lifetime Members 10,282 Member For: 22y 2m 22d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 31/05/07 07:37 AM Share Posted 31/05/07 07:37 AM Very little.Centre muffler removal will result in maybe 10rwkw's. Which is nothing, you'd never notice it.The cat will get you around 30rwkw's.
