lol Already read thatVERY good post tho.. With having my Fully built dyno tuned SRT-4, I understand how a full tune will help .. and my Intense racing stg 1 SSEi I am aware of the crap "canned tune" that comes with kits.. I also agree in that thread you linked about a few DIY things.. Yea, I think $150+ for a piece of hose and a filter ( FWI ) is insane, but I just want a clean look under the hood.. But being out of the 3800 scene for a few years I haven't searched the forums much on a clean DIY CAI.. I have an Aeroforce gauge in my SSEi but that because Im running a 3.4 pulley and we have crap gas up here.. ( 93 )
If I could just put a 3.6 pulley on this without a Canned tune PCM I would.. I dont have HPTuners, nor does anyone in the area.. What I will do for sure on this car.. Probably my first mod ( mods ) are
-Coolant flush to get the DEXcool out of it
-ZZP Race DP ( catless )
-TransGo Shift kit ( or if there is something better , please let me know ) I know its just accumulator springs, but it does help.. It sure did in my SSEi at least
After that I will look into:
- Some sort of clean looking reasonable priced CAI setup
- 180* T-stat
- 605s
I did see on Intense racings site that the 06+ Gps need a 2004-2005 PCM??? Is that in general or just for HPTuners tuning?
