Is this another April fools day joke or are you serious?

Look in the Duratec forum. Since its basically the same engine, your 3L will benefit from anything that will benefit the 2.5.

so they are not much different to work with except better design with 3l and more hp right
the only way to get more is to get a turbo

anyone did a supercharger here and what is the performance out of 2.5

thank you

no it is not april fools day

Your question was already answered. Other than a 3L, you can do the same performance upgrades that are available for the 2.5. Exhaust, tune, pully's, flywheel, nitrous, turbo...

more fuel = more hp right! Throw some 100 lb injectors in there.

Thank you, thank you. Well those are your options up there man. Same stuff you'd do to a 2.5, work for the 3L. Plain and simple.

what about the dyno chip I heard different stories some people have seen gain some people did not. I read that it will help to run it.


anybody has one
Posted By: lubas79 Re: getting more out of 3l - 04/04/06 04:10 AM
one more


If i put 21lbs injectors and buy arizona chip have a y-pipe resonator k&N filter


do you think it will change anything



or I should just chill out buy a chip and let it go
Posted By: posthuman63t Re: getting more out of 3l - 04/04/06 04:56 AM
You don't really NEED 21lb injectors, but you can still use em (make sure your car is tuned for them). Don't get what you mean by y-pipe resonator...You can optimize your y-pipe, that'll help. A K&N I wouldn't say necessarily does much, give your car a better sound, maybe...MAYBE a 1 HP. lol. uhm, and I would suggest a local place to get your car dyno-tuned over a mail order chip. Dyno-tune will be perfect for your app, but a mail order chip wont be, although if you can't afford the dyno time, ADC would be the way to go.

With all this done, you should expect some decent gains...nothing that is going to throw ya back in the seat and make a HUGE Noticable dif tho...

not unless they have the correct software. (i.e SCT)
Posted By: Pudmunkie Re: getting more out of 3l - 04/05/06 02:30 PM
Im sure there is an SCT authorized tuner in New York somewhere

http://www.sctflash.com/

Enter your zip code and it will tell you the closest place to have your ECU programmed.
Posted By: lubas79 Re: getting more out of 3l - 04/06/06 01:26 AM
great

now what if I get the SCT flash device by buying it will this be sufficient enough, \

thanks

Sufficient enough for what? Tuning the ECU will only maximize the potential that you already have.
Posted By: lubas79 Re: getting more out of 3l - 04/06/06 02:21 AM
ok so I sould still go to the dyno shop and what they will do
