you run mb battles on your sc?i thought i was one of the few.hardly see any sc with battles
Actually a lot of people have them on the sc's
I sold mine a while back and now I have rpf1's.. I gotta update this sig
I'm in...finally opened all the presents with the family. A few things I got-nothing specific to my SC, but I'm pretty stoked with my PC7424XP. I almost bought a used one, but wifey kept suggesting against it. Now I know why? LOL. She had ordered this new for me! I also got a Garmin 401 wrist navigation watch...perfect when I'm out mtn biking.
got some daizen steering rack bushings and a metra double din installation kit. I bought them for myself and had my family wrap them up and give them to me haha
Thats the exact same setup I'm going for on my SC (SRT, IMF, 5zigen). How does it preform?
...even though its pretty much the only setup for our cars lol
Well with just the exhaust it sounded great but was loud and maybe made it a hair quicker. I have 2.25" piping from the header back with an x-pipe in the middle. Most people say it's sluggish because there's no back pressure but others say that since it's only 2.25" on a v8 it should be just fine.
When I added the headers the exhaust note got a little raspier and again maybe a slight power gain. I had the car dynoed after the exhaust and headers and it only made 235 whp. But at the time I know I had an exhaust leak from the header install where the flange needed to be turned.
As far as the intake people say it's 50/50, great mod or complete waste. I've only driven it for a little over 100 miles but it says it takes at least 250 to perform best given it's wired to the ecu. I think I may be getting worse gas mileage now than before but i've kinda been having some fun with it. But so far I don't think it made a difference.
One of these days i'll re dyno it and see where i'm at. Not expecting much because there mostly cosmetic mods. The car is heavy as it is stock then I have heavy 20's, vette/is-f brakes up front and supra brakes in the rear, then 2 10w7's and an extra battery plus sound deadener in the trunk.
All I care about is that the car sounds great. I've heard it sounds like a mustang mostly and when it idles it "burps" like a vette.
and other things that aren't car related.
