All mods done, this puppy is SICK!

TurboX3 · 09-13-2008, 03:12 PM

I just had to go on a short military trip so I left my RL down at the dealer to get the saturn motorsports stage 3 race tune done. I got a call mid week and the message basically said that the head tech and service manager were afraid to drive it after the first road test so they left it inside. I picked it up yesterday and it's sick! Wheel spin, first, second, and third, without droppin the clutch! I'm gunna get it on the rollers as soon as I get some free time. I saw someone post 307hp to the wheels but they didn't know the other mods with this tune. I'd sure bet it's puttin that much if not more. Total drivetrain mod list, Dejon Intake, IC piping, IC, blow off spring, RPI Exhaust, and Saturn motorsports Stage 3 Race tune. Total cost, about $2,000. I think I have to get a new plate that says Silver Bullet.......

Sounds great! Have fun! Keep it between the white lines.

dixie · 09-13-2008, 03:59 PM

307 hp at the wheels is a lot,what boost are you running ?

TurboX3 · 09-13-2008, 05:24 PM

The program says 23, I've seen 21 on the dash, the bars top out but I'm not sure if the numbers do as well. I've driven some mean turbo cars before but this thing spools so fast it's crazy

, you shift and it's right back to max boost. Hope that helps.

That sounds FUN..... just about all I can say.... HOW FUN.... SkyBaby

enkymion · 09-16-2008, 04:33 PM

Post pics.

TurboX3 · 09-18-2008, 04:01 PM

Tried once, didn't work, haven't been able to figure it out since. Any tech talk would be great and I'd be glad to post pics of all different parts of the car.

SkyBaby · 09-18-2008, 04:04 PM

Maybe PM a mod to ask if there are questions about posting.... I still have issues with that at times... or maybe it is just becasue I am blonde. LOL SkyBaby I would love to see the pics when you get them.

Wind Restrictor · 09-18-2008, 04:40 PM

Congrats on your new mods.

Polar Wind · 09-18-2008, 06:00 PM

Way cool on the mods. Would love to see pictures. Maybe reduce your resolution on camera or go to "email" mode.

MaverickFlash · 09-18-2008, 06:04 PM

Have you tried posting them as attachments? Sometimes i cant put pics in my post but i can post as attachments.

enkymion · 09-19-2008, 05:44 AM

Bump for pics.

zolsol · 09-19-2008, 08:46 AM

Sounds really hot! And really fast!

simONE_racing · 09-29-2008, 11:50 AM

it cant have more than 22.5 PSI of boost or it would go over the 255 KPA limitation

enkymion · 09-29-2008, 12:47 PM

pics... pics... pics...

Elff · 09-29-2008, 01:15 PM

So will the tires hook up at all, or are you constantly spinning?

Not true, there is a tune that modifies that limitation in the OS. Also it's 22.49 to be exact. That limitation is for commanded air. It can overshoot and the computer just reads it as 22.49.

TurboX3 · 09-30-2008, 09:16 PM

Elff So will the tires hook up at all, or are you constantly spinning?

No, it will hook up, just if I let off the clutch at anything about 2500 rpm First is useless, second is a little squarly, third just makes noise but goes. If I get on it below that, first lets go around 4000 rpm then i can keep traction from that point forward, this is all done with TC off, Competitve Mode, some wheel spin but it gets up and goes with just some squeel.

enkymion · 10-08-2008, 07:04 PM

OMG still no pics yet? I give up on this thread.
