Get these things tuned!!!
Trying to run an oval port (or any 3L for that matter) off an SVT pcm, aka untuned, isn't a good idea...
blackcoog runs untuned 3.0L all the time :shrug:

i want the wagon to be ready, but i'm still weary on the strip because i really can't afford to break it, which sucks. :blackeye:
What? Japanese cars never break :crazy:
at least it isn't a contour.

Get a roll resistor from u-pull.
i knew that was going to happen.
why don't you sponsor me, and i'll break all kinds of things as long as you foot the bill.
How about you stop being a little girl...
^^ I agree
I feel the need to jump in here ( late ) with a few things.
Y2k - Your hybrid made 195 tuned, you have to realize that a large majority of the full 3 liter swaps (SVT cams or not) are making 205+ untuned. so for example Snobs intake, header, exhaust full 3 liter with svt cams made almost 219 (??) fwhp. My old cry full 3 liter has yet to have the tune optimized and kept up with him, so I'm guess mine was around 205 w/ quite a bit more tq.
From what I have seen the majority of the swaps taking place today, by people that know / give a damn about what they're doing are putting out some pretty decent numbers.
Ive also had a chance to meet Nima in person, I know the mofo can drive. And that ultimately is the reason why a lot of people put down times. Myself, Ive never run a great time at the strip, I'm just not that good at drag racing; I can admit it. Thats also why I don't come on here complaining about running a slow time.
Actually, it was 206/195 on a mail order tune. My best 1/4 mile time was when I was untuned, at 196/191. I'm not debating whether or not he's putting down a lot of power, or if he's the next John Force on the strip. I'm trying to put two and two together, exactly WHAT he's done to make so much power. You say there are a lot of people putting down low 200's on untuned, straight 3L swaps. There's also a lot of people putting down 185 - 190whp on basically the same setups. I'll agree, there have been some pretty ty drivers posting times here, with 2.7 60' times and 15.5 1/4 mile times with 3L swaps. Maybe SNOB or someone else with a very similar setup will take their car to the track and pull atleast a high 13.
