Default Sweet! ARH + SS3600...
...are in and wow what a difference. I also put in some motive 3.42. It's like a completely new car...lol. I went from 305rwhp to 337rwhp sae. Both on same dynojet. With no other added mods besides a Ported TB. Which is like 3-5rwhp max. So 27-29rwhp off 1 3/4 ARH! Freakin sweet!

Video of dynotune: http://youtube.com/watch?v=TwLtxaHf5eI








I also put on some 555Rs, so it's a blast so far.

Nice! How are you liking that stall with those gears? I've got 3:42's and I'm considering the Yank 3600 too.

Perfect considering this is my DD. I almost got 3.73 but figured 3.42 would be more highway friendly. It's pretty tight very quick to get used to.

Awesome, I'm going with a very similar setup. Any idea what kind of gas mileage you're getting now?

Well I just got the gears broken in on Friday and I've been driving like a madman since, lol. I'm sure it will take a hit in the city. I'm not worried about it though. I'll let you know after the next fill up. The fun factor more than makes up for anything lost.

I installed a Yank 3600 a couple of months ago (haven't updated my sig, as I haven't been to track yet). It feels very similar to my old TCI 3000 around town - meaning nice and tight - but gives a lot more when I romp on it. This converter is great with 3.42's, but it is a traction limited situation when you stomp it.

I raised my shift points a little bit to accommodate the extra slippage of this converter and my gas mileage has suffered some compared to the TCI.
