im dying to see what drift office has to thing. I saw that they voted on a poll and felt that this a toy, curious to see if their opinon has changed just a little bit after working on your car.

I would love to try something like this out but not sure if I want my dd to be a guinea pig. Would be really nice if they had something like this for my silverado.

Fair enough, but how about some prelim numbers as an appetizer? Did you do better than 210 whp? I promise I won't call you a fanboy.

No I did not see the gains that Fenton saw using the stock airbox. I have a Perrin CAI on my set-up. There were 8 to 10 pulls completed on the tuning day.

At the end of the day paper says one thing but my ass in the seat tells me a lot more when driving the with ESC tune. It is totally bonkers....

Pretty sure we was joking

lol

Can't wait to see your results and hopefully a video of it ripping at sea level.

My dynos are good but my altitude rapes me for performance put to the ground.

We should really be looking for base line vs Final results rather than fenton vs whoever, given bob stated he didn't baseline were in different locations and different shops etc.

When I change the dyno correction factor to "uncorrected" I get:

120tq and 153hp stock
155tq and 181hp sc'd

That shows just how much my alti screws me. I lose more than 25hp to altitude.

I was being sarcastic lol. I think this thing looks great and its estimated price is more than fair. I am actually one of the many who can't wait to get one for their car.

agreed, too many other variables otherwise.

fenton · 09-05-2013, 06:43 PM

Anyone having any doubts to difference this kit makes look no further than the following video. At our altitude FRS's are NOT that fast to start with so some viewing my many videos may say "hey mine does look THAT much slower"..... Well..... here is a FRS with a ESC with STOCK tune doing pulls against a FRS with FULL SRT headerback exhaust, intake and visconti stage 1 tune(total $~2300).

I think both are third gear pulls. Remember with my tune i picked up even more low and top end power so this is mighty impressive.
