Spell check, then dyno your car.

At the fly maybe 5 over stock.

You really need a good EMS and good tuning if you want to make HP.

I would think more than just 5 more hp at the flywheel. I mean obviously it's not 20hp or anything but I don't think it's only 5. Just my opinion...

Like Solid said, it's all in the tune.

i agree as well. And Darkbluelude couldnt have said it any better.

One interesting thing I saw on the skunk2 website, a while ago, i dont recal if they've updated or changed it, but they claim with their intake mani and stage 2 na cams, you gain like 30 whp.

i just looked at it again. With a stage one, the dyno plot they have a link for shows almost a 20 to 30 hp gain. Mentions it has a few other mods too.

ok just nevermind

Solid · 05-05-2008, 01:22 PM

I say it since he is running stock cams. The Type-S pistons are good, but the small amount of compression gain is the only thing that will be giving him HP. Stock EMS will have the same maps though.

The DC, fuel rail, etc are not going to help. To take advantage of a fuel rail you need to have an engine that is consuming more fuel than the OEM can supply.

o ya i got me ecu from John Vega whats that do for me

Solid · 05-05-2008, 02:42 PM

^Did you just order an ECU from phearable or go get it tuned on the dyno?

gatewayjoe · 05-05-2008, 05:28 PM

i order it and i told him everthing i did

Solid · 05-06-2008, 08:27 AM

Well it has a base map from his experience with tuning the H22. You really need to get the car dyno tuned if you want some gains. An EMS without tuning is a bit of a waste.

If you plan on doing more to the car you could wait. Valve train, etc
