off to work now, good luck.

i make? colder plugs? what else?

i wish we could use a system like a crane ignition, it could wired it to retard timing on spray, but with the crazy 12 spark plug with individual trigger for each (they fire one after another and alternate who goes first every time) it seems like we are left without such a option ... but again, a 50 shot is not a big deal for a v6 of this size to handle, plus the nitrous has a intercooling effect as well that is beneficial to reducing chances of detonation ... it ought to be fine ... we sprayed a dry 50 shot on our ol' 2.0 dohc non turbo for a year at it was ok even with a mopar ecu that advanced the timing a bunch, and yes we did follow the tips i mentioned ...
a good way to go safely about this is to purchase a inexpensive obd-2 logger ($100 - $150 dollars) that allows you to watch your ignition timing ... run the smallest nitrous jet ... watch the timing, if it starts dropping like crazy, you know the knock sensors are picking up detonation and you ought to back off ... this engine bay has plenty of insulation so you won't hear it, but it sounds like marbles in a tin can, you hear if a few times, and the motor is toast usually ...
also, don't touch dry kits ... wet kit is the way to go (meaning it provides fuel with a extra solenoid and fuel jets, not a fuel pressure rise or injector pulsewidth increase trick) ...
man, work is quiet at this time.

Re: my tune, my dyno, my story...
so i have to retune my ecu again, basically obsoleting my recent tune, of is it something else all together. i have 0 nitrous knowledge and am too lazy to look on the net, plus, work is slow for you, lol. i have been on srt forums for 2 1/2 years, same name there. i was going to buy one but didn't because of the insurance rates and other factors, but i love the OT over there.

what is there web site ad. ? also how do I go about getting into the group buy. any info be much appreciated... thanks.

i wouldn't lie about this, i have been waiting for this for years. i have been on this forum for almost 3 years and this is the most power shown from a mod
ever on this forum.

also, this east coast group buy is around NY area, if you don't mind driving down and saving yourself a fraction of the cost/and also to check out all the cars that are in this group buy. you're 100% welcomed.
btw, we have a guy from canada driving down.

Hi guys,
Perhaps I'm a little slow but please clarify things.
The chip in the car was altered, extra performance was found- sounds great.
How does the "group buy" thing work?? Do you just line the cars up outside this guy's door and he alters your chips, one at a time?? Can he duplicate what was done to your chip to a "changeover chip"?? Do we send chips, he changes them, and then get them back??
It all sounds good but I am in Australia so driving to this guy's shop is not an option. The best I've been offered here is a chip that claims a 10% increase in power and torque (give or take) for AUD$1,500 - I think it's pretty rich for such small gains.
I suppose I just want to know if we can get around the geography issue.

Re: my tune, my dyno, my story...
I just came across this thread and see that there is much talk about a group buy but no list starting. I'm not rushing things, but I'm very interested in doing this. I would just love to be able to get in on a group buy to cut the cost some. $600 doesn't sound like a bad price, but anything cheaper would be much better.
Re: my tune, my dyno, my story...
x'ed because of you I MUST HAVE THIS DONE!! It sounds to good to be true, but I don't care anymore it needs to be done.
I'm just wondering a few things, anybody can answer:
1) Is it possible to get the traction control completely off via the ecu (when the button is pressed)?
2) I'm looking into having the evosport under drive pulley installed (shortly) and was wondering if you already have a tune for this set up, because I live 3,000 miles away it is rather difficult for me to stop by for a dyno/tune. Is there a dealer located on the east coast?
3) Now I know this is going to sound a little crazy but here it goes... Is it possible to get the ecu to tune its self to 93+ oct when the traction control is turned off (for that little extra hp)?

Re: my tune, my dyno, my story...
I've sent some PMs out to some members here about the east coast GB. but no responses??
Start a list up guys.
1.

8.
9.
10.
We need to have about 20 before FEB 10, 2007. 20 not just from crossfireforums, but also from mbworld/klasse.
Crossfire coupe/roadsters 3.2V6/Srt-6 PM me for the price and i'll give you the paypal address your supposed to pay. ALL payments have to be received by Feb 10, 2007. Otherwise GB is cancelled, and you'll end up paying double or this chip.
