I think there is a large enough gap between the throttle body and firewall on the SRT6 that those who are already running the 55 set up may in fact be able to get away with running your airbox and tubes?

I bet you're right, SRT6... but it would need to be test-fitted to be sure (it's a pricey, albeit gorgeous, intake to buy w/o even knowing if it'll fit properly).

I've eyed it myself... but in the end I'm convinced we C32ers simply don't have enough room (and the 55 intake for under $300 is much easier to stomach than $2k+ )

VRP - I applaud your holiday specials... simply phenomenal deals (easily the best ones on MBW); if I was in the market for either headers or a tune, you'd be at the top of my short-list

Thank you!

We just did a header install on SRT6 and there is definitely more room than C32. It might fit. We will have to test fit it next time.

Just a question regarding the ECU Tune. It states that the software will tune timing, can anyone explain it a little more? What kind of timing is it regarding to? Throttle response timing? or can it actually tune the transmission timing? Thanks!

If it was done through Powerchip directly, you need to talk to Travis.

Engine Timing Advance maps are reprofiled for better power. TQ limiting maps are raised as well, in addition to more aggressive throttle response timing.

With regard to TCU, we are working on it right now and testing it on my S600, which shares the transmission design with C32s.
