This may be a stupid question, but...
What exactly is a TB, and where do I get my processor code from?

Thanks

We were talking about a throttle body spacer.

Your processor code is on a white sticker on the computer under the hood. The computer is in front of the battery next to the fuse box. It's aluminum and wedge shaped.

Ken,

Any idea in the difference in the numbers between the 87 and 93 octane tunes?

That tune there was actually on 91 octane. I would guess about 3 hp or so and about 10 tq.

? can you 'splain that again? Am I understanding correctly that there is only @5hp gain at rear wheels between 87 and 93 octane gas?

How's the final version of the heat shield going? Curious to see final product before shipping.

I would say 5-7 hp between those octanes in stock form. The cars are much more sensitive to octane at lower RPMs and that is why the torque tradeoff is much larger than the horsepower.

The only thing I have it my final prototype. The heat shields are being water jet cut. I'll post some pics of my final prototype later today.

Ok, got some pics for you.

Overall shot:



Close up of serial tag. I used 281 on mine so I wouldn't steal one of the first numbers for you guys!



Extra brace by the fan for good support on the heat shield.

Will the CAI fit with the Saleen Supercharger?

Will you sell a tune for the Saleen Supercharger and your CAI?

I would have to test fit it. But if it fits I can do a tune for you no problem.

For those with pre-orders...


We are running a bit behind but they should still ship by early next week. The heat shields won't be back from the water cutter until then.

No problem at all Ken. We know you are overseeing this project like if
it would be for your own car!

You will let us know when to send you our car info for the tunes?

guys,

one of the main reasons why i like this setup/deal is that KenB responds quick and I already spoke to him personally.


also, he seems like a good authority on the auto. tranny GT

+1 On that.

Mine Is a manual so thats not an issue. My gut tells me that he will always be readily available. Customer support is my greatest concern when buying for my car. I think Ken IS the right person.
Bump-
BTW- How Is Your car Coming Yao? I have been following it on the other threads. Have you gotten it back from shop with the new suspension?

Ken is not only producing a nice piece for me but he also gave me a great deal on a set of Stingers that will ship with my CAI.

His customer service is outstanding
