pulled fuse = 10hp??? lol

so today i was with my buddy and he is prity knowledgable with cars and he told me if i pull this fuse (for the emissions) i should get 10hp. i was like w/e lets try it and see. so i went and took like 3 pulls and everything was normal and the ground was wet so i couldnt even tell u if it did anything. i didnt blow a code till on my way home and i just threw the fuse in then it reset but i just think its kinda comical.

If it were possible to gain 10 hp by simply removing a fuse, that would be the first mod EVERYBODY would do.

probably the A/C fuse, lol. prevents you from using your A/C thus you get the extra 10hp.

You brought up an interesting point actually. I dont believe the AC compressor cuts at WOT on this car. It does on most cars but I have not noticed it on this car.

^x2 Somebody on here said it does, but I haven't noticed it do it.

Well, there is the possibility it's an LSJ and not LNF thing...

Maybe somebody with HPT and an LNF can check it out. *cough*

I dont see it in the system information. I know the LS series cars have it cut at 95% throttle.

Just make sure you pull all the fuses for maximum HP gain and some extra weight reduction.

It might have been the exhaust fuse. Me and a friend were checking out the fuses one night since I just got the car and I was just checking **** out. We found a fuse that said EXH or something like that. I took it out and noticed a little more popping in the exhaust but that's about it. I had a check engine light at the time from putting hot side intercooler piping on wrong. After I fixed the piping I had a friend scan it with his computer he gave me the codes the piping put out and it also gave him o2 codes which I'm guessing is from the exhaust.
