Just a couple for now, I will get all the runs without Headers and Cobb and viceversa once they fax them to me. Big thanks to Japtrix and the Crew. From the tuner, headers are a waist of money, havent seen any positive results yet. These are with headers and Cobb Stage 2 and 2+. The lower numbers are from Cobb 2+. My review No gains from headers and loss of Torque. Final report.

 

Yeah. spending the chedda and getting no results will leave a bad taste in your mouth.



Good luck finding the right performance combo for future mods.

 

Cool.

So what are these first two dynos showing?

 

Once I get all of em I post. Unbelievable. I ran without headers 279hp and 229tq. After the headers 280hp and 219tq.

 

Pre-Loaded maps are fail man, if you really want power then you need to get yourself a custom tune made for your car then you will start to feel the power

 

damn vq is so nicely tuned from the factory already

 

Wow. Major tourque loss

 

yeah, that's not good. says alot though. if his car was FI it would be a different story with his set-up.

 

agreed, i think the factory already squeeze all the power out of our engines which is good

 

fixed

 

focking B!tch... ahhah

 

Thats what I said. Is a waist of time and money getting mods done. I believe they R&D this engine to be an unfriendly mod engine.

 

yeah there mostly for sound to me cause 1-2 hp dont matter to me

 

It's a very mod friendly engine. so was the last VQ. one of the best(if not the best) on the market. hell. why you you think hyundai slapped it in their genesis drift car.(the *******s)

It's a great motor for modding. Just need to find the right parts and tune. Headers usally reduce weight, not increase power. Headers are a great investment if your FI. I'm captain research when it comes to gains.

 

Did you do any same day stock baseline runs to see your gains?
