View Full Version : Well I .......
REDFOCZ 06-09-2007, 10:18 PM Just bought my Ingen intake, Cobalt Addiction shorty header, and XTC 2.5 down pipe with no cat. Next week I am hoping to get my exhaust done, and also buy my Eibach's. I am hoping with all these and my HP tune I can break into the 14's. :D
DarkSergeant 06-09-2007, 10:33 PM Very nice. To be honest I'm incredinly excited about this big news from Hahn - but at the same time I am nervous about losing the warranty... it is a GM for God's sake.
In my advantage, I'll like be able to pay off the car and buy the turbo kit here in about 9 months, I figure if the car is paid for and I have a major problem I'll be able to afford to fix it..
WhiteSSBalt 06-09-2007, 10:52 PM sweet. I have the CA header and the XTC 2.5" de-cat downpipe on my SS. It works well, but the downpipe sounds somewhat airey for some reason.........kinda annoying b/c it makes you think your exhaust is always leaking. I've heard ZZP's downpipe does the same thing though too........hmmm....
Also, that downpipe is gonna make your car throw mad CEL's. My car runs like ass right now, but once I get it tuned w/ HP Tuners and throw on the SS/SC injectors this Thur, she 'oughta be back with a bang!
elecblue06 06-09-2007, 11:06 PM why in the world did my post on this thread get deleted

REDFOCZ 06-09-2007, 11:07 PM Yeah I already got the HP Tuners no worry there. I am just anxious<--(sp) to get the parts now.
rlinden86 06-13-2007, 02:01 PM well what im running it just barely cracked the 14's good luck man. shoulda just waited and not got that header and intake if you decide to go turbo from hahn since there obsolete with that kit. gosh wish i didnt buy it lol.

Imlikedrpepper 06-13-2007, 02:07 PM I dont really think you can hit 14's with those mods.

Well I dont plan on going turbo with this car for a long time if ever. So I want to make it fun to drive now.
I dont really think you can hit 14's with those mods.
Really, becasue the are SS/NA's out the running a 15.00 with just intake and exhaust. :rolleyes:
I dont really think you can hit 14's with those mods.
I ran a 15.001 with my mods. Intake and vector tune at 8000 miles on the car. I don't see why he can't get 14s.
rlinden86 06-13-2007, 02:23 PM well im running at best 14.8, il have to go try it again. but il wait till turbo lol.

No you're not. You're running an 1/8th mile time and then using ricer-conversion to estimate a 1/4 mile time. Totally inaccurate.
REDFOCZ 06-13-2007, 03:13 PM No you're not. You're running an 1/8th mile time and then using ricer-conversion to estimate a 1/4 mile time. Totally inaccurate.:lol:

;) I am glad you were there when I ran Dan.....phew.
PpAzZ1101 06-13-2007, 03:48 PM ;) I am glad you were there when I ran Dan.....phew.
Haha... you ACTUALLY ran your car in a 1/4 mile.
PS. Monday evening starts the install at Dave's.

You still want me to call Dennis? Meh...just call me. EZier
red2006SS 06-13-2007, 04:15 PM i think he can do it and good luck with it i hope you get into the 14's i put down 15.2 in 1/4 with just the air box mod basically.
REDFOCZ 06-14-2007, 07:55 AM Thanks, looks like everthing will be here today, so the install will be this weekend:cssNET:
elecblue06 06-14-2007, 01:29 PM if people are hitting 15 flats then yes you can get 14s
rlinden86 what did i tell you about throwing your ricer math around before you knew if it's true
rlinden86 06-14-2007, 01:43 PM i just ran the thing today. i ran a 14.84 1/4 @93mph. 0-100mph i think was about 16 or 17 secs.
ryan.
elecblue06 06-14-2007, 01:47 PM wait so you really went to the 1/4?? and you ran as good as my friends ion
red line... even
rlinden86 06-14-2007, 01:51 PM i got my gauge thingy and did 5 runs and thats what it said so. at 1/4 mile track i know it can already clear 15
ryan.
elecblue06 06-14-2007, 01:53 PM oh so you're probably really running 14.9s but still good
rlinden86 06-14-2007, 01:56 PM well i had 5 runs. i did a couple form 0-100 and the rest i did till about it stopped. there was 14.98 14.87 and 14.85 or something like that. but the rest were like 15s and 16s i was calibrating it it still needs some tweaking though.
ryan.
PpAzZ1101 06-14-2007, 02:34 PM OMG. Until you have a timeslip, you don't have a 1/4 mile time. Gauges, conversions, stopwatches, or sundials won't cut it. Don't you understand that???
Put it this way... there is no way that you ran a better 1/4 mile time than ANYONE has posted on this site when you were running on the street rather than a prepped track like everyone else that has posted their times on here. I call BS on your 14.8 from the gauge.
REDFOCZ 06-15-2007, 01:50 PM Got the intake in today, header and down pipe came in last night. Ordering my Eibachs today or tommorow. :cssNET:
WhiteSSBalt 06-15-2007, 09:56 PM REDFOCZ, I was told by an authorized HP Tuners tuner/shop that they can't log in the '07 LE5 engines to HP Tuners yet. So how is it your tuned with HP Tuners? Or am I being told b/s, lol. Man, i'm tired of the run around I get with this damn car. I've never owned a car where it took THIS LONG to find a reliable tuner for it. All I get is "be patient". And no im not gonna tune it myself as I know nadda about tuning.
The fix........I might just sell the damn car when the '08 Caliber SRT-4s come out. I'm tired of f**ing with this stupid car, lol.
But for now, im gonna go ahead with the 19"s, maybe tint the windows, and keep rolling around with a half-ass-potential 2.4SS littered with CEL's and a hesitating ECU. Oooooh yeaaah. :cool:
SpoiledAlice 06-15-2007, 10:02 PM Nice. Congrats on the new parts.

Oooooh yeaaah. :cool:The version of HP that is out right now was not able to read my car at all I was unable to lisance it version 2.1.18 :thumbsdow , so HP sent me the new Beta version to use 2.1.19 and that seems to play nice with the LE5 for 2007.
Second, got the intake on this afternoon and I'll be damn. This thing screams with it.

You should throw on a header/dp/hfc/catback, that screams...
Plus, I don't see why 14's aren't possible, ran a 14.862 at a local dragstip (yes 1/4 mile). I plan on going back soon since the fkn slip flew out the window. Might drop by there tomorrow for a few runs on my way to Florida.
REDFOCZ 06-16-2007, 09:56 AM Header and Dowp pipe going on in about thirty mins :D
elecblue06 06-16-2007, 10:46 AM well it's been over 30 mins ... where are the pics :D :lol:

yeah, I was told the '07 was still in beta testing. Pro Motion wants me to come by and hook my car up to the laptop to see if it can even log my car into HP Tuners. I guess i'll do that and go from there. I'm hoping my car will be tuned by......oh.......2012 or so. lol
On the bright side, im ordering my 19"s this Friday and my 18"s are going to my girlfriend for her '05 Tibby. :cool:
REDFOCZ 06-16-2007, 11:09 PM I was able to scan my car, but was unable to lisance it. Have them Email HPT and ask for the beta 2.1.19 update so you can tune your car. You should be set then :cssNET:

alright, thanks man. :twothumbs
TorontoSS 06-17-2007, 07:02 PM I ran a 15.001 with my mods. Intake and vector tune at 8000 miles on the car. I don't see why he can't get 14s.
im curious what kinda gas do u use in your car? Im guessing ur 5spd?
im curious what kinda gas do u use in your car? Im guessing ur 5spd?
Gas? I use 93 octane per Vector's requirement. It is a 5 speed and I flat foot shift 2nd and 3rd gears. But for the fact that my tires are HORRIBLE launchers I would easily be in the 14s. I think the trap was 97-99mph consistently.

If you know nothing about tuning, why don't you call up Vector send your ECU to them get their tune and enjoy 1.5 second faster quarter mile times and no CELs no hesitattions nothing. I've had this tune for almost 9000 miles and not ONE PROBLEM...NONE!
REDFOCZ 06-18-2007, 09:07 AM You were traping 97-99 MPH in a bolt on 2.4? Thats kinda high for such a high for your 1/4 mile time
You were traping 97-99 MPH in a bolt on 2.4? Thats kinda high for such a high for your 1/4 mile time
You might be right...let me check the time slips again. It might be more towards mid 90s let me see....
