keep reading...
i think page 2 or 3 they finished their cat back system. redyno and you see the extra 10 hp...so its more like 22hp. but when they did the cat back they added a couple degrees of timing.. only good for about 2-4hp they said.

but they need the cats so its smog legal, most of us can get away with no cat(s) depending on the state your in...

[bigleman]

i was watching Jay's Garage (i think it was)
and they had a Nissan rep there that said they made the GTR very hard to mod because the head designer didnt want people screwing with his "perfection"

Stillen Intake, Berk HFC's, and Stillen Exhaust and then in his later vids a pulley

i meant the catback

or do you only see like 4hp from the catback and it is compounded with removing the cats

whole is greater than the sum of its parts, kinda thing?

perfection? no... a transmission that doesnt break when you launch hard would help achieve perfection

it is moving WAY too much on that dyno for only 300hp

nope. they had seperate dynos. 12hp for test pipes then 10 hp from cat back+ timing.

I bet if they did just the cat back they'd probably get sub 10hp gains..

If there are pre-cats in the headers, then a header back system with test pipes should be killer..

but it would be good if nissan did this from the factory but maybe they needed the car to be at a certain quietness?

Unlike a certain Japanese competitor, General Motors' Corvette chief Tadge Juechter made it eminently clear this week that use of the car's launch control will in no way kill your warranty.

just sayin

[MDeezy]

ouuuuchhh!!!! LOW BLOW!!!


wat a boggy launch

[redmaxpa007]

[MDeezy]

with a crappy launch like that sure you wont break the transmission, they barely broke the tires free....I could launch a toyota prius better than the ZeeArrOne Launch Control..

i dont need a computer to play with a tune... what is this a high school band class?

I need it to know that issh so when I stop the gas and it cuts fuel at 3.2k It can launch properly!!

Computer is still quicker with its "playing"

I'll be drinking egg nogg, and doing under misle toe while the zr1 does a crisp 13.89 in the 1/4

[bigleman]

i bet it will still launch better than you

[MDeezy]

all I'm sayin is with such a crappy launch system....sure you wont break a transmission...

im just sayin.....

considering the kind of cars that come with the TR6060, i dont think the transmission will be an issue
