I have trouble seeing how having a custom cat back would mess up your power so badly (Edelbrock's advertised power is on a completely stock exhaust). Did you get a retune after you gutted your stock header? I have a feeling that you most likely changed the flow characteristics of your header, causing the tune to freak out (assuming its the same tune you had before the cat problems)

For sure the gutted header didn't help. I asked delicious if i had to retune and they said no. Same tune normaly. The tune didn't freak out because the curve are just the same as before but down low. Afr were great. Man at dyno said it's something he already seen, "clogged exhaust" bad design, bad flow caracteristics. We will know soon with the complete exhaust The stock exhaust of the gt86 is a big shit and we all know that so why if we are putting better exhaust parts the engine will lose power ? That's not logic ... Maybe a good re-tune is needed. But the supercharger is giving air pressure and nothing else, all the other superchargers are doing the same thing and are making more HP with complete exhaust. Is that something so special with the edelbrock ? I choose it because for me it's the best supercharger on the market yet for the frs/brz/gt86. 1 year of reflection, viewing pdf of all supercharger install on the market. Finaly for me it was an evidence.. Really hope power will be back with new exhaust setup ! |

Going to start the install this weekend. Will also be installing a JR dual radiator and a radium catch can.
Any suggestions as to what order I should install things in? |

I'd say do the radiator first, you'll have to take off the front bumper anyway and messing with the radiator supports after the air box is installed seems like a pain. Definitely route your lines for the catch cans before putting the manifold on, kindoff a pain to get to the PCV valve after the fact.
Are you doing the remote clutch bleeder also? definitely do that before installing the manifold. So jelly... I kinda wished I installed my kit but I got a killer deal with my mechanic, plus I got to watch/help |

Thanks again for all of the help, I can do some searching... but does anyone know off hand how much coolant I'll need with the JR rad?

That's in ch and Nm.
I think ch is equal to metric horse power, or PS, which would mean a difference of about 1.5%. 1Nm = ~.74 ft-lb. That's why metric dynos don't cross at 5252 like in the US. So that red dyno gives roughly 292hp @7119rpm, 229ft-lb. @5917rpm I'm curious to know more about the car. I assume the green dyno is stock+SC, and red is SC+mods. Blue seems high for stock. |

Red line is stock exhaust except agency power cat back. Green is supercharger + shitty exhaust ! Blue is stock with k&n drop in air filter and agency power cat back with stock tune ! We are runing here 98ron octane gas in france, maybe its why we have a little bit more. I'm also using a french anti-friction product that you put in oil and i dyno this product on Harleys we were capable of +6%HP and torque at third oil change with the product ! It takes time to be in place. 2 to 3 oil change with each time product in new oil. It's called Mecacyl. Everything you want to know just quote me ! |
