No Longer Mad at Vishnu

Hey Guys, I guess I'm over the whole shipping fiasco on my V2 especially since I took my first ride in the V2 equipped 335 beast. I did a bit of data logging and it looks like I'm in good shape with around 14 PSI at 94% and 94 Octane. I'm also running the delimited map with speed loom connected. The temperature is about 20F here in Michigan so I'll be keeping a close eye on the boost as the temperatures increase. My first impressions are that the power is much more tractable and I really like how the performance increases with RPM. This is a good difference compared to tons of torque in the low RPM's and then tapering off after 5k IMO. The butt dyno feels great so far and I cannot believe the performance so far. I look forward to warmer temps so that my tires will hook up a bit better. Data logging by myself wasn't easy and I don't recommend it for obvious reasons. GD Computer was flying all over the seat. Nonetheless I love the product and look forward to an intake solution as my next purchase.

BTW, I didn't have any problems loading any of the updates via my computer. I'm running XP and have a Serial Port. I did need to remove my INTERNET card and restart my machine before it would recognize Com4 but no big deal.

Peace out!

Cool man. I was a little pissed off at the snapped connection during my install, but the performance quickly made me forget it.

Yes...it is like being pissed at your wife then having good make-up sex! You forget why you were upset. I wish someone would have told me.

I'll tell you this....all those wires in the ECU box is a nightmare. I really hope I don't have another warranty issue. I DON'T want to take all that shit out again.

No galloping with the delimited map? Do you have the extra wires for your bypass plugs to deal with the speed sensor activation?

No...I was just thinking about how the hell I'm going to make this crazy jumper wire. I never used the jumpers in the past so I guess I'm not really worried about it.

94 Octane in Michigan??

Heck take advantage of that.
That's like a moderate race gas mix for us idiots who live in LA (Latin America) California.

Also take advantage of that and the cool temps.
If you are only getting 14 psi peak at 94% settings, I'd go up to like 95.3%
If the weather warms up and you throw a limp, then drop it back down.

But to give you an idea, I'm at 14.3-14.4 psi peak (for a split second on the datalogs) on our crappy 91 Octane and have done WOT runs at 70-72 degrees with no issues.

You are on less boost, more octane, and lower temps.

Enjoy more power, increase the values a bit.
