22mpg is pretty good even on pump... I daily my 15' on E85 and average 11.5-12mpg (80% highway with the cruise set) maybe 17 or so on 93. And 90%+ of my driving is under 3k rpm. I'll usually go wot maybe once or twice a week and I usually limit it to a 3rd gear pull or something (traction...
If you idle and enjoy your a/c especially in bumper to bumper traffic Iād say itās worth the upgrade. Do the Reische 170 while youāre in there. And if you do sit in a lot of traffic or daily ask your tuner to turn on the fans at full duty at all times. That will help aswell.
I see 80+ degrees almost 3/4 of the year with some months staying in the 90's with humid nasty heat. Car is daily driven and I definitely wanted any extra cooling I could get. When sitting in light-to-light traffic for less than 5 minutes my cooling wouldn't keep up and I would start seeing...
You wont gain or lose any power with a fuel system. If you had a fore L3 you'd still make the same power. You just probably wont be able to make much more power even if you pulley down for more boost because if your pumps can't get enough fuel to the rails the car isn't going to be happy. Octane...
Iāve used both the 110mm and 120mm off and on. Just lots of power, heat, and load. I also broke the input trying to go into an OD gear going wot so I think that was the achilles heel, but it can happen at any time.
Just wanted to drop in and update on what an ess kit with big pulley can do to your transmission. Car has 31k miles 5k being boosted. Surprisingly the front planet didnāt have much visual wear. Iām just waiting on the converter and the car will be back together shortly.
Depending on your tuner, a dedicated e85 tune should net some good gains. From what I understand there's much more shoved in down low and some tuners will even keep timing pegged up top regardless of knock which they assume if false because you have plenty of octane with e85+-10 or so. If you...
I did and yeah. Probably but thinking about how much 1200whp would cost in a motor and if I donāt switch up the kit my ess wonāt ever make that. So letās consider 1000 or so my max. I know my motor wonāt take that much sauce. That being said I need something to take about 150-200 wot hits at...
It's a weird mix of sentiment, Some say just clutches, intermediate, and center brace can get you running up to 900-1000 or so wheel pretty safely. Others say you need to get the front planet and forward shaft if you wanna live there and although I don't like being cheap on my car it kind of...
But I bought an auto because they are supposed to be a bit more stout..... the trans had enough of my shenanigans. I'd probably do no better with a stick car. I'm the kind to get a wot box and absolutely beat the hell out of a manual. I'd have too much fun.
The 6r80 had a good run. 31k miles was doing a run in Mexico and Iām assuming it tore up the intermediate shaft on the 4-5 shift. Car only has 1-2-3rd gear now. Any 6r80 gurus point me in the right direction on what should come next. It may never see the strip in its life. I want it to be as...
Yeah, I'd switch over to an h pipe already if I had the chance but no looking back now. I'll leave my budget exhaust on and be happy that it stays in one place.
Have you done any WOT hits with those headers yet? Catless If I clear the codes and cruise around it takes a while for the O2's to sniff it out, but as soon as I go WOT the code pops š . It also depends on the tuner if you get codes or not. Some do some don't :lipssealed:
