Single Plane Intakes... Loss of Torque?
HELL NO!
for you guys thats been around awhile, you know of the build i have been working on.
lets say my friend gave me a best guess tune to go try out and datalog, and i got a little excited yesterday and went WOT real quick...
STOCK THROTTLE BODY on an intake thats bigger than a super vic (the fox throttle cable will be here in a couple days for the 90mm )
Aode 2.4 1st gear, 4.30's, 315/35/17 tire, and 2230 = 17mph i stuck it wot. i let out at 5494rpms.......= 41mph......
it took 1.99 seconds
my shift point is at 6500
theres still plenty more left in the car, plenty.
So i challenge anyone to tell me that a Custom cam, canfield 195 heads, a HUGE single plane intake and LT's with 3in exhaust is too much for a street car.
some might give the arguement that well you have 4.30's thats too much gear for me, well i got news for you, put 3.73's in it and you still will have plenty of acceleration power. Think about this, an aode has a 2.4 first gear, a t5 has a 3.35 first.
2.4 * 4.30 = 10.32 worth of gear multiplication.
3.35 * 3.27 = 10.95 worth of gear multiplication.
given the same tire, the t5 would still accelerate faster in first gear.
i went the 170cc head, ots cam to match and a long runner efi intake route... never again will i **** money down the drain like that.
the old combo wont hold a freakin match to this beast.

The "Mr. Bad" button already exist young grasshopper!!!! It pulls like a fuggin freight train out of the gate. Way better than it ever has before. It just doesn't hook worth a dam on the street if I try to squeeze it out of the hole. It does, however work great on say second gear shift and activation at the same time.

Sweet, we will have to meet up one day.
Wes @ TPS will probably have it on the dyno to put the finishing touches on the tune and get some #'s for the auto and then ill stick it back on and get #'s for the stick
