Nouri-shment! projekt resonator delete / TCU flash... complete
Schpring is schprungin here in NE CT, drive-with-windows-down / audible WOT season as I like to think about it. Life finally settling post-holidaze & year-end bs, good time to address a few little things.
Just got POS back from some blessed xwarranty claimz - ROI's never cease!
After nuking bank2 coilpack daze after ECUflash, it's sister up and f'd ze pooch a few weeks back. Both 'covered' - muwhahaaa.
A case of while-you're-in-thar sets in, and a TCU flash / lowering / resonator & Ypipe delete ensued.
Now... just look @ this disaster (note OEM ball/socket joints, we cut/reused them):
The thought of touching the wheels back down off the lift w/ this clusterfuch of design simply nauseated me. 2 into 1 into "u" crimp into 2 w/ each of the 2 squished flat and 1 of the two into a hard tight 90 into resonators? (that 2into1 center pipe was a rather hilariously enormous whaledick looking gargantuan near square tube)
fuchthat
clusterfuch, begone! (craaapy cellshot sorry):
Cats into (near) straight back straight thru to dual mufflers. Seeing full F to R 3" piping which goes on seemingly forever is a chuckle unto itself, John's work pure artisan...
JNR!
Resultant flow is s0o0o0o0o0ooo exploited, the whole tq curve shifted left - throttle response now near retahded. It's like gaining 1/2 a gear.. insaneo.
and the sound - oh the sound
Power deployment is like igniting a pair o' nuclear reactors - I've never heard one (or 2), but I'd imagine this is what they sound like...
vaWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!! (squared)
to me, the sound now is spot-on - decels are nearly more giggling than accel, imbibes the beast w/ desperately needed character
going out @ lunch for some colleague offerred flyby's and I socannot wait
coupled w/ a Eurocharged TCUflash (further muwahahahaa-age) and some further STAR lowering, the whole chassis is dialed into the tarmac in a delectable ensemble... throttle / gearing / BOOOOOOOOST
TCU flash is worlds better than OE, but a hair short of the S55 logic I experienced - that'd be ideal but this is an acceptable and effective remedy
soon as summer's go back on it hits the rollers for report-back
800whatever tq is wow-inducing... as a passenger, you expect this phenomena (yer not the one 'doing it'). But as a driver here - the OMG'ness is near overwhelming, I find myself chuckling/giggling in sheer disbelief and literal astonishment.
A 70mph stomp @ 2200 produces Saturn5 violence and BAM 140 (light speed too slow - go straight to LUDICROUS SPEED)... it's...
Just
Not
Right
(BRUCIFER!!!!!!)
You've heard it before but I cannnnnnot say enough about working with John @ Broadway Performance. UDAMAN, Johnny!
Worked the big picture from start / finish in such seamless ease and pleasure. Aside from just being a cool car dork (good to be among fellow geeks!), his passion to accommodate please execute deliver shows in every aspect of his work.
Get to North Jersey, if you can - heck - I'm 150mi away(wayway) and I'm already conjuring up a return trip in the coming months.
Fuchyeah!
BMC's or K&N's going in this week to round out the breathing package - intake / tune / exhaust. I think I gained a few mpg's to boot... which... will be summarily dispatched w/ newfound throttle silliness, no doubt...
I encourage any yous enthusinuts out here to experience a tuned M275... any M275 for that matter. It's enlightening, spellbinding!!! There is just no comparison to anything else I've experienced in my years of automotivedom...

This was funny at first, than began to be tough to read. I forgot my de-dumber at home today... too bad!
Great job on the "burrito" delete (hate that ****ing thing) and looks very clean. I am sure it made a hell of a difference. From what I gather, you're very pleased!

well, it's not for everyone
Hmmm... I could dumb it down for you, ala Caveman:
"me-um make-um car sound good"
...but I abhoar See-Spot-Run summaries / descriptions
open your mind, have a little fun... read it again, you'll find all the info's 'there'
otherwise, I discreetly return you to your irregularly unscheduled deprogramming (snorrrrre)...

yes / no
my idjut colleague f'd up trying to camcorder them last week - and he's our IT guy 8-/
I'll give it a 2nd try soon - I will say it probably won't record well
why?
it is ALL SOUND - NO NOISE
that's the best way I can describe it - it's loud w/o being loud, if that makes any sense
it sounds positively evil coming out of the hole tho - subtle evil that is, I'm not one for the overt... esp on a luxobarge and esp soas not to disturb the sleeping Johnny L 8-)
