I’ve had alot of people interested in this set up and I finally found time to get it posted.
The car is now tuned on E85. It is running our STM Tank to Rail, and [STM FPR Return Kit with the ProClassic Hose. I’ve got a little over 1000 miles on this set up. It’s got the Forced Performance Race Manifold and an Evo III 16G.
As you can see, there is no intercooler, no side mount- Nothing!
Emery at STM set it up with an AEM Water Injection Kit and we started off spraying meth, but then switched to water.
We added a Koyo radiator and FAL Fan to help keep it cooler.
And the Road Surge Auto Shift Kit is absolutely necessary! Without it, full throttle, the car will just pap off the rev limiter- it doesn’t shift fast enough without it. but WITH it… it’s INSTANT! It’s a little rough, but it’s not hurting anything. I love it!
Emery has it tuned on DSM Link V2 and I see about 26-23 psi as it falls down. The turbo is just a little guy, so I don’t expect too much more.
After all was said and done, we saw 100 more awhp over the previous set up (which was basically only a cat-back and Hallman) and the car runs and drives BEAUTIFULLY!
I couldn’t be happier and it’s only $20 to fill the tank. I’ve been watching the coolant temps and intake temps and they are all normal, the intake temps are about ambient. He made a carbonfiber shield/air duct right above the STM Transmission Oil Cooler to split the air so the air filter does not get all the hot air off the cooler and help direct it to the engine compartment.
Emery is still thinking of possibly spraying Nitrous to get the intake temps WAY down and help on the launch, but the car drives amazing! I honestly don’t want a monster for a car. I like to DRIVE it. So we’ll see what we do. But for now… Here she is:
We wanted to try something a little different and I think Emery would still like to toy with it, but from a “customer’s” standpoint: I LOVE this car!
Oh, and here’s a video of the car on the dyno.
