N/A UPGRADE BIBLE. - Page 2 - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

AL3k · 06-20-2002, 01:13 AM

ok

my SL with nothing but an k&n intake put down 167 peak hp

Hans' SL put down 168 to the wheels with an exhaust/testpipe/intake.... BUT he kept 168 to the wheels to redline where as I fell back down like 10hp to redline.

the numbers may be skewed a little seeing as this was like 2 years ago.

Solid motormounts, you can also do the dsm elcheapo method of filling in the mount with polyurethane, ie 15 bux for all 4. Works real well. Or you can take it a step further and make your own molds/mounts.. the instructions are out there. Again, diy for pennies.

with the UDP and lightweight flywheel, you tach up alot quicker than a stock setup

ILanda · 06-20-2002, 01:14 AM

you know for the intake which has more HP the panel replacement K/N or the pod K/N????

YOGURT! · 06-20-2002, 01:17 AM

not sure what ya mean there guy. but you get the one that replaces the air box.

ILanda · 06-20-2002, 01:23 AM

ok so you mean the Pod filter cool (the one that replaces the OEM air box)

I have a gutted cat, is a test pipe better performance???
Also I have a flywheel but with a stock clutch am I robbing myself of power, really I cant turn back cause its expensive for them to change now....
Where in the hell does that LSD go??????? and how much is that?
And the last question is, lol, Ive got all the other mods, which would u do Cam gears or bored out throttle body?

Limited Slip Deferential, tranny mod, when one wheel starts to spin it shifts over to the other one to even traction back out, cost is only one arm and one leg...

Thanxz again Yogurt! I copied and pasted your bible as a word document to my NA archives for future reference!!!

Audiophobe · 06-20-2002, 07:47 AM

I've been waiting for this thread!
I want to do just the intake and the downpipe for now.
I wanted to know if:

1- these mods would give me HP gains without modding the rest of the exhaust(yet), and
2- what this will do to sound. I DON"T want a very loud exhaust. Louder is ok, but not LOUD.
Thanks
for any feedback!!!!

(I can't (and won't) do the testpipe in my state.
I thought the next mods after the above would be the pseudounderdrive pully from 3sx and maybe the (yogurt) exhaust.)

AustinGT · 06-20-2002, 07:53 AM

So let me get this straight. I have only a K&N Aircharger. If I get a test pipe right now I'll add 13 HP to the wheels? and with every exhaust mod after I will add to that number?

If that is true then I am going to get the 3Sx pulley and the downpipe and be happy for a while.

i think you've got nitrous way to early in the list, that should probably be at the end.

and, WAY TO STATE the obvious

im sure glad we all have this upgrade guide now, lol
