Talking MODS on the way/ TTMotorsports

Have been talking to Bruce and spent a few hours on a Saturday down at the shop the other week going over the car and was able to drop of the 55 with him yesterday. This week we are doing Carbonio Python Tubes, TTMotorsports intake scoops, -10 C Mod and custom header back exhaust. With plans for 180 pulley, 82mm Throttle body, re tune and dyno in the coming weeks. Awaiting the phone call and getting back the keys.

I do notice a difference at higher speeds. Between more surface area(TTMotosports air scoops) for the air to be funneled into the python tubes which between smoothing out the air, reducing inlet restriction and increasing the volume of air compared with the stock tubes, the philosophy behind it makes sense at higher speeds. Plus if anything else it looks good.

Slight but a definite difference. It was way more noticeable when I put on the python tubes and airbox.

The scoops DO work. Bruce has designed an inexpensive, effective way of getting a few more HP & I am getting a bit better fuel mileage. Can't go wrong with htis mod as its an easy install and cheap.

Looks great!

I've seen people refer to the "-10C" mod in a few threads but haven't figured out what that is yet. Is it a new, larger H/E or something else?

I'm close enough to NY that this thread tempts me to treat my car to a "spa day" when the time comes.... More pics! More video!

You have a deal Angelo but Nick(sneaky neon) has already proven that they work at the track with time slips to back it up! I know it is only one to help quantify the scoops but one is better than none. You will be #2 unless someone beats you to it a Famoso!

I'll set your ignition maps to 93 octane minimum, do the -10c degree mod, Netherlands chime and whatever else you want. Just give me call and take a ride down. And it is done all for FREE for MB World members!!!

The next thing we'll be saying is that Turbonator intake vortexes work. It's a placebo effect.
