3800 Finally a LIL more boost!
- Thread starter TonzKnock-G
- Start date
Just came out not 2 long ago. I went very conservative since I still had up to 5KR on stock pulley/pcm with FWI and DP. Im hoping to sell the press on's I have and buy a 3.4 pulley. It seems no matter what I do I'll always have the same KR. I should have scans up by Thursday once the heat comes down a lil bit.
sounds like false knock. i had some from the first DP i had with out a cat.
i noticed it was false becasue4 i kept turning up the timing and had the smae knock at 13* as it did at 18-19*. if there is a way of you doing this it might be somthingto look into. that way you can elimanate stupid stuff like the noisy DP or a sway bar hitting

Yeah as soon as we get a weekend of at least low 80* weather im going to US41 and see what my money has got me.?? I also got new tires (potenza's) since my last vistit to the track with my crappy Eagle LS (my opinion).
SiNr: I doubt its the DP hitting since I had the same KR stock with only Intake. Ron did my DP and said I should not have any issues with it hitting the sway bar. I just need a real custom tune and buying a tuner would probably be a waste of money since I dont have the time or knowledge to make it worth the cost.

Yes it definetely feels faster but how much faster is the question. I know I could have EASILY went with the 3.5 Pulley but with the hot ass weather we are having I played it really safe. I just borrowed a laptop from a co-worker and hopefully I can get some scans in tonight and see whats poppin. (not literally
) Then I will determine whether or not to get a 3.5 or 3.4 pulley. Im glad I went with the MPS instead of the press on ive been having for ever.

Tony, I have a 3.4 pulley you can borrow if you feel so indulged to test it out.. I'll be over that way tomorrow, or Thursday.

Nah its ok for now im not in a big rush to run the 3.4 just yet. Although when I go to the track I might ask to borrow it if your not using it at the time. What are you running now? Its not a press on right? Thanks for the offer
Very cool Tony. I'm glad your making progress on the GEN V. Yes, you are now making more power than previous times. However, practice your launches because now that you have more boost the launch gets a little tougher.
Heres another thing to look at. If your plan on getting a power tuner or if you know someone (MIKES3) that has a tuner you might want to lower your timing. I have not messed with my timing at all and I pull 19-20 degrees of timing with my 3.4 pulley and I see 0 knock at this point in time. My point is with a 3.4 pulley and your supporting mods you may see knock if you have the same timing I am commanding. You will want to lower yout timing which allows you to free up knock thusly meaning your going to be faster.

Good for you Tony. I know you have been waiting to put on a pulley and a pcm for a long time. When do you thing you might be going to 41? I just went a couple of weeks ago with some friends. One of them had a Mercedes AMG CLK 55. I raced him but just lost by like a car. But it was good times.
I really try not to make it a once a week habbit by going up there. Its just too far to be doing that every week. Now every couple of weeks B)
