Everything is on and i couldnt be more happy. Had the install done at performance specialties in pottstown and also had it dyno tuned there. It put down 350 RWHP and almost 360 ft pounds without cats(is that good for the amount of mods i have done...mods are in sig). IT SOUNDS AWESOME and does it scream at WOT it sounds like a 60's muscle car. i dont think its too loud at all even with the loudmouth its perfect . I love driving around town on saturdays now all the college students just stop and stare or else they all yell things at me like "holy crap what the hell is that...thats awesome" or "light it up man YEAAAA" or ".......wooooow" and the ladies dig it too . Its increadible everyone goes nuts when i drive through town...it feeds my ego hehehe. All my buddies have badass cars and we all drive through town in a convoy and everyone doesnt even know there alive when i roll up

Great numbers congrats! Now get that thing on a track and see what it can do. I just got my JET HOT's on too and I agree there great! I have about the same engine mods you do you hopefully I'm around there in horse power. You missed out on a lot of fun not doing the install your self though.Glad you like them.

Real nice numbers!

Dont buy the sims! You dont need them, unless your worried about throwing the code. Im not using them and my scanner shows they are still reading a voltage. I think it's aroung 4.25 or something. I guess this is a default reading from the PCM.I just have the plugs in the bungs and it runs fine.

I like to see numbers like that. I hope my SLP LT's do as well.

99TranTranny, did you get your car tuned after you installed the headers? I've been thinking about a set of jet hot headers for a long time, but dont know of any local dyno facilities (I'm from jax also). thanks

OMG long tubes are so Easy to install, If you can do the tune up on a LS1 then a Headers install is just as easy, Had mine Done in 5hr and 30 mins, that includes going down to Autozone and geting a 15mm Deepwall shocket & 10mm Deep well(damn those Collectors bolts on the Manifolds are a bitch,also the back pass side Exhaust manifold bolt) All in all it was easy as pie, Only thing is, Have any of you had to Grind the Driver side frame for clearance ? it's Rattling my teeth out lmao.... Sorry Black Didn't mean to Jack your thread, Just sharing my Exprience =)

Thanks Steve-0

There was a spot on my 99's engine block that had to be ground so it wouldn't make contact.

99TranTrany

JBIRD02 , No I havent got any tunning done yet. There is no where around here that does it either. We do have a few shops with dynos but none that do any tunning. Norris motorsports in orlando is the closest shop to us. I have heard good things about them though. Tunning will probably be the next thng I do.

99TranTrany I already am throwing a SES light my friend scanned it and its the o2 sensors. I need the simms he said that the SES light is really hindering my performance because the car is running in a different mod to compensate he said its pulling timming and messing with the fuel mix etc. And trust me i bealive him because when the SES light came on it felt like it was running weird it felt sluggish. then he cleared the Codes and told me to go down the street and floor it and see how it felt....holy crap what a difference i stomped on it in first gear and the car almost went all the way sideways it was at more then a 45 degree angle to the left when i slammed it into 2nd and it swung around 45 degrees to the right side and screaming all way . i went back to his house and said THERE IT IS THERE IS MY 350 RWHP hehehe

UPDATE: here are the exact numbers i found the dyno sheet hehe

347 RWHP
352.6 TORQUE thought it was closer to 360 sorry

The only thing is my torque DROPS FAST after 5100 RPMs is that normal? what do i need to get some better torque numbers? and also i have a quick question my car was tuned without cats on so if i put cats on will that screw with the tune real bad?

Your first post said you had the car dyno tuned. Why didn't they just turn off the rear O2's as part of the tune? Was the car tuned or just run on a dyno? A SES light from rear O2s will not effect the performance of the car. Rear O2s just monitor the performance of the cats when installed and have no effect on fuel or timing.

didnt know that you could turn them off but i wouldnt want them turned off just incase i have to put the cats in and set everything back up. And yes they did tune it well thats atleast what they told me and what i asked for...thats why i am asking if those numbers sound right for the mods i have because i will take it to SLP and have them tune it.

You need something like LS1edit, to turn off the O2's, along with similar stuff like EGR, AIR, etc.
Maybe they are a cheap shop and tune with HPP's or Predators?
If its a decent shop, and they turn off the O2s when they dynotune your car, it shouldnt be a problem to go back one day and have em turn em back on for free. Since it only takes a couple minutes.

thanks for the help, I didnt think anyone around here had a dyno, who do you know of that has one? I'd like to do a base run at least, then i'll have some #'s to campare when i get my headers.

2xLS1 is correct as your rear 02 sensors have no effect on performance they simply monitor the condition of the cats. I think at a predetermined speed the PCM will check every 15 mins and when it doesn't get a reading back it throws your SES light. Your fuel and timing are adjusted by your front 02 sensors and your MAF. Performance Specialties was the same dyno I used for my car and puts out consistent numbers. Was your car dyno tuned? If it was in fact tuned they should have removed the code for your rear 02 sensors so it would not throw the SES light again. Was it LS1 Edit tuned? As far as I knew Performance Specs did not have LS1 Edit ability and they left that to Mikey from Rapid Motorsports who handled the LS1 category. BTW Nice numbers and I love my Jet Hot's too!
