hey guys,

So im thinking of possibly going SC in the next year or two, however I think I may just be able to get through some first initial mods before I sell the car.........(I get bored easily)

Here are my current mods: (not much) 04 AP2

K&N FIPK
T1R Test Pipe

Want to add:

Greddy eManage Ultimate
J's Racing header
T1R-EM dual exit exhaust

Can anyone comment on what type of gains I can expect or explain how much of a difference i can expect over the feeling of my current mods? Would it be quite noticeable?

Also, has anyone had any problems with the Greddy Emanage that lead extensive repair work? Im looking for extra power but want my car to run healthy like it does stock!

Sorry for the noob questions, but thanks to all that can help.

 

From my experience, (E-Ultimate, Berk test pipe, rick's header, K&N filter and cooling plate) you'll probably get some +7hp in the low end and nothing up top.

 

I have all the mods u listed except i have the berk coated header instead of the Rick's. I did not notice a big gain with the FIPK alone. When I added the TP and header, however, i did notice a pretty good difference. Lastly, I added the dual 70 exhaust and the EMU at the same time and, again noticed a solid gain. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the mods, $1300 for an exhaust is kind of steep, so i don't know if i'd pay for that again, but overall, I'm happy.

 

one thing is "feeling" the gain and the other is looking at the dyno graphs...
I suggest to go forced induction it you are to start modding your car...

 

with the intake, header and test pipe i dynoed at 215 whp on a mustang dyno corrected hp. I have not been back to the dyno since putting on the EMU and exhaust but my "feel" is that I've gained hp. I doubt that tuning and a 70 mm exhaust would not net horespower gains. While I can't give u a specific number, I can only comment on what I know.
