I'd also be curious about any MPG changes with the tune.

Paul. Thanks for the vid!
I cant wait to order my Vararam. Since I missed the group buy, im going to wait for dyno runs first before ruling out Injen. Cant wait to see dyno results!

June 2011 Trifecta Tune Loaded
OK so I went to ARD for a dyno this past Saturday and didn't quite get the desired results. Keep in mind I had previously got a dyno run at ARD in Oct of 2010 with the Injen air intake installed and the stock tune and got 257 RWHP. All runs shown on the attached dyno sheet were done with the Vararam intake installed and with 93 octane fuel. Run "Runfile 1304" and "Runfile 1305" were both done first with the 13HP tune installed - results show a max of 241 RWHP I then reinstalled the stock tune and dyno'd again: Run "Runfile 1306" and "Runfile 1307" were both ran with the stock tune and results show an improvement with a max of 253 RWHP I have since reinstalled the 13HP tune and sent a data log off to Vince at Trifecta. Initial feedback from Vince is that my datalog looks fine. Not sure if he's going to give me another tune though. I'm thinking my best bet at this point is to take it to the track particularly in the wake of Vararam's recent post about their intake and dyno'ing. I wonder if the tune works better with the intake on the street and that some sort of screw up (very technical I know) occurs when trying to dyno the intake and tune together? Quote:
Only the track will prove otherwise I guess.......

ONE AWESOME CAR Journal!!! Thank you for all the work. I am waitng on my Vararam Intake and RX Catch Can. After reading your story on the Vararam intake I feel better. My question is now that you have had the Vararam intake on for about a month what do you think? Also if you dont mind me asking how much is a tune?

August 2011 - Flat Black Pace Car Rally Stripes Installed
Thanks to Barnett Pin Striping who did a great job. For anyone wanting to get vinyls installed - a word of caution: Do not buy stripes online - these guys would provide and install (and warranty the product) for cheaper than you can buy/install them separately. Also half way through installation they noticed the stripes had waves in them due to incorrect packaging/shipping - they don't look too bad; however I may get Barnett to replace the hood stripes in the near future.

I've been on the fence about changing my stripes to flat black. It looks really good on your car!

September 2011 - Cup Holder Lighting Installed
Bought the matte black panel with "a bit more blue" led from 'sjmautoprod'. Very happy with the results though I may add a bit of rubber striping on the edges to get a more snug fit.
