I finally managed to put an order on some items i've been wanting to get forever!

Ive been trolling the forums looking at reviews and what not and I finally pulled the trigger on RV6 V3 J-Pipe/RV6 Pre-Cat deletes/Magnaflow resonator/P2R TBS/P2R Thermal IM gasket.

Waiting on them to ship, and then on they go!

The only current mod I have is a CAI and some MINOR exhaust work after the 3rd cat. Should put some pep into the Type S! I will update as soon as they ship and get installed. How has everyone else with similar mods felt after the upgrades?

 

Nice, way to go on doing some reasearch! ill be looking into PCDs and a jpipe over the winter.

 

I hope to see some gains on the butt-dyno! It also helped that RV6-P was having a combo deal on the J-pipe paired with either high flow cats or PCDs. I also forgot to mention im lowered on Koni Yellows with H&R Springs. I heard the RV6 J-Pipe has decent clearance for dropped cars. Only time will tell!

 

i think the word you were looking for is "lurking" and not trolling.



welcome and enjoy your new parts when they come in! !

 

Thanks!! Shooting or "hoping" for 280whp!

 

finally read your mods...

the throttle body spacer will do nothing for you.
modifying the stock exhaust will do nothing for you except for sound.

the PCD's and Jpipe will be your two biggest gainers.
and unless you're shooting for the hondata flashpro, you wont hit 280 at all.

 

Aww man! Im not sure how I got to that number then haha. I read a stock 07' Type S AT will at the MOST push 250 wheel stock form. Then I did some math:
CAI +7-10 MAX
PCDs +10 (From what i've read)
J-Pipe +7 (From what i've read)
TBS + 4 Peak (Alot of controversy on this one)

270 is probably a little more reasonable now that im thinking about it. I really appreciate the input!

 

5AT or 6MT?

245-250whp 5AT
267-273whp 6MT

5AT type-s will only put down 230whp stock.
6MT type-s will put down 250-255whp stock.

 

any air tuning is done in the intake manifold and not before it.
when adding a spacer, you're not adding any additional volume of air and any cooling effects it has is minimal.

 

There's some good reads here on the throttle body spacer where IHC and a few other very knowlegable folks chimed in. I'd post the links but can't on my phone.

 

Again, thanks everyone for the input. My numbers were a little(jk, WAY) off. Didnt realize the 5AT has that much more drivetrain loss than the 6MT. Always learning about these cars!

 

CAI wont give you that power.

 

IM spacer > TBS

 

So would that make you have a 278 hp car if you add up all that power? Add some stickers too on the window.

 

It's TOO fast. Stickers would fly off.

 

 

Well, PCD's and J-Pipe went on today while I was at work from a good friend. The amount of rasp is unbelievable with this setup. I can not wait to get that magnaflow resonator installed next week. Also, I now have a NASTY exhaust leak. Its a real bad tick, under throttle. I will be checking for loose/stripped bolts on everything tomorrow as well as trying to post a video.

 

How is your TL running now bro Bauermd from VB?

 

Too fast, he forgot to update his thread.
