Thread: My VVL feels like it just gained 20WHP!!

So to start the story before I went to New York I had the car tuned on the dyno with the SAFC.

Setup:

Thermoblock Spacers (all)
Sr16VE cams
****ty unknown headers
Air Filter
MSD 8969 @ 4800RPM
DE computer
Stock exhaust

176WHP & 138tq it made @ 87F

So before I left my boy Kenniel installed a used compressor, and all the lines and stuff, I had A/C until Georgia when I heard the compressor about to seize up. Long story short I bought a belt made for the B13 SE-R that came with no AC and the car immediately felt much faster (crank to alternator) thanks Lance & Rob.

Now I borrowed from someone Payu's Calum ECU (thanks Simon) in the meantime until I send mine out to Calum, basic VE program with some tweaks and no rev limiter, N1 cams program etc... SAFC is now at 0

Thanks to Danny HKS, I changed the RPM limit from 4800 to 5400RPM and WOW! is all I have to say, between the computer and the new VVL activation and the 30F weather the tires break loose at high RPM's, the car is a freaking BEAST now, I wonder how much more WHP ive gained, im actually scared now lol No other VVL has felt like this, even the ones that I have ridden in that made more power and had more mods.

Just had to share, I cant imagine with a 3" exhaust, N1's, SSAC or Fuji's how much faster it can get, or maybe its the power of the dragon etched on the side of my original Nissan rear windows

Always good to feel your car get faster... Sweet uh.

check out rc00e header thread, although a 2.5 ssac is the best bang for the buck.

get a 3 inch already man, go to shea and get that **** popped in their quick.

Thanks guys, Stratton I had Fujis but I had to sell them, didnt even get to enjoy them. I think im going to go for the SSAC's for now, and they are cheap as hell too which is not bad. I need mounts and bushings so I might do that first. The 3 inch up here from where? Shea?

right near shea stadium, but theres plenty of exhaust shops in nyc wich will bang out a 3 inch exhaust.

Let me know, because I was going to go VRS, but if I can get something similar I would rather do that (or get a piping kit). Holla!

Thank you jejjejejjejejeje...

I accept donations too...

more power = good

Im happy the ecu is working for you. So far no problems Im guessing??
