If anyone wants an SE UIM that's already been through the EH Group Buy, I've got one for sale in the classifieds at:
http://www.contour.org/classifieds/classifieds.php?t=1&c=6
It's waiting at EH now to be shipped to you or directly to the Jet Hot Group Buy if you want something super-hot. See add for details.

Alan.. I am still debating which UIM (SE or SVT) to send. I see you have decided to send an SVT after the SE was finished. Why? Do you have any data from Rick (flow #, size of t.body opening, size of runner openings afer the process)?
I have looked at the SE t.body opening and it looks like it could open up to 60-62mm to match with an SVT t.body and not impact the EGR. Note, it will still be smaller than stock SVT t.body opening as that is about 65-67mm. However, unless you are planning to use a 65mm 4.6L t.body, the SE "should" be OK for the SVT t.body??

I think if you have not sent your UIM by now, it is too late. Wasn't the deadline Friday, 18 June?

Hi Dan. I think the EH'd SE UIM should work fine with modded SE's or a relatively stock SVT's but mine is a well modified SVT and more importantly - I've already enlarged the LIM (2000 34/35mm) and TB openings over the stock SVT dimensions and port matched my SVT UIM to those pieces. I don't want to go through that expense twice I don't have any hard fiqures, but I ran an SVT TB on my Mystique and it was very strong on the track and worked fine on the street. During my conversations with Rick, when I explained the work that had already been done to the SVT he felt that while the SE openings have been enlarged, it made sense to EH my SVT UIM, as it is already port matched to everything else I have and the SE won't be. If I don't, I'll have to have the SE port matched to my other modified pieces and then try to sell my SVT UIM which has larger openings than would be any use to most people and wouldn't likely be a "perfect" match to anyone else's setup.

I wound up buying a SVT UIM to send to EH (and Jet-Hot  ). I've done some port-matching on my UIM, and although it took a looong time to do, I'm willing to do it again if the EH process doesn't open the ports up to a reasonable degree.

Rick, I bet your butt dyno will be very pleased.  Do we get to see a re-dyno soon?  I wonder how many UIMs EH is going to receive? This has been a good GB.

There will be a re-dyno, but this isn't the only mod. Try adding bigger TB, bigger aftercooler, bigger intake tract, bigger MAF, and a little more optimizing.  Just need to find some time. Anyone seen any laying around? Rick

Nice...  I seemed to have misplaced two hours this morning  so I haven't seen any extra laying around.
