pshew, i was starting to think i might be in trouble because it doesn't sound terribly different from my car. No CEL's or anything here though and plenty of power.

It sounds like a case of paranoia and a tune which needs some work.

Interesting, my car sounds the same (a good amount of mechanical noise) when the hood is open. It sounds like it's something more tune related with the misfire and the lean codes but just my speculation. Strange though that PRE has already diagnosed it twice (I'm sure they looked at the maps). Did they give you any indication of what might have caused it? Terrible timing for you there.

270tq at the crank is about 230rwtq. It would be an 80% increase. That clutch should be good for around 300rwhp.

The crappy Iphone Microphone makes the knock muffled.

Hi All,

Just a quick update on the Innovate Intercooler test and tune. So here are the results we have thus far.

As you can see there are three dyno charts and below describes each.

182.7 whp - Innovate Stage 1 "Tuner" Package with out standard tune offered for this kit. Usually this reads around 215-225 on a dynojet by comparison or 20% higher on a dynojet.

191.9 whp - This is the exact same tune as offered in the Stage 1 "Tuner" Package except the different being only the intercooler. As you can see just adding the intercooler and doing absolutely nothing else will net your vehicle nearly 10 more wheel horsepower. So that would be about 225-235 on a dynojet.

204.7 whp - This includes the Innovate Stage 1 "Tuner" Package plus intercooler and our custom map for this particular setup. So there is room to make power even with a small (minimal) pressure drop. Boost is not everything, as can be seen above.

And I am sure there are a few more items on the table to make even more power. Coming soon...

Cheers,
William Knose

that seems very low when we have ppl at lik 250 WHP, or is this with stock exhaust, pulleys AKA just the stage 2 kit?

Doesn't seem low to me at all. On a dynojet as Will stated it would read higher. I made 230hp on stock pulley, e85 and a greddy axle back. Granted we got the last few dyno runs with the hood closed to see if there was a difference.

i mean the 235 seems a bit low, but if its on stock exhaust thats great and i can see full exhaust, intake, custom tune at def ~280

I dynoed 230 with the mods as i said above and a custom FA20club in person tune. Are you saying that number is low as well? I was on e85 when I made that number. It in reality with the hood open would have been around the 240ish range. This was on a MAHA which does read lower than your typical dynojet.

im jus tryna figure out if that was the only mods on the test car is wut i mean. really hoping its only the kit on the car. im pretty sure it is in which case great numbers, but jus want to make sure b4 i get too happy

This is a stock FRS setup except for the Innovate SC Stage 1 Package (75mm pulley); including stock headers, stock exhaust, stock intake on California 91 octane fuel. I do apologize for the heartbreaker dyno, as I know it does make the numbers look extremely low in comparison to other dyno numbers.

So with that in mind the main focus is on the difference between what the Innovate Intercooler (no pulley changes) offers in regards to power/torque increases over the baseline Innovate Stage 1 "Tuner" package with and without custom tuning.

Thanks for posting the feedback. What do you think this setup would make with e85 in the mix? no exhaust mods or pulley changes.

heartbreaking no. since i have full exhaust and 93 octane I'm hella excited now :D
