Those with G3's/Stillen CBE/Berk HFC's
 

Got my intakes and exhaust delivered this morning at 1130, all installed by 2pm, first off I just want to say that this car just sounds downright BEASTLY. It sounds like it was born to race, and the butt dyno can attest to improved throttle response, havent dyno'ed yet, but will do so this weekend, for those with this setup, what do yall think?

You should be at or above 300whp now. w00t.

mmmmm, carbonetic 1.5 way LSD, mmmmmmm

I know, im pretty pumped about it, im going to drive it around for a week and let the ECU "Learn" its new modifications and then dyno it on Saturday, cant wait to see the numbers. And yeah, the Carbonetic LSD is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow, woooyeah!

I was at 321 whp on DynoJet with this combo. Here's the thread I posted after adding the G3's to the Stillen CBE and Berk HFCs, complete with dyno charts and vid. It's an awesome combo!

I've been following your threads since i've joined the site, I've learned alot from them, thanks for all your contributions man. But one question I have for you, being that the intakes dont have mounting brackets, they tend to rattle against my fender wells at idle, even when i try to reposition them, what would you recommend I use to stop it? i was thinking of adhering some kind of foam padding where the tubes make contact, not sure if it would stand up to the heat in the engine bay, any suggestions?

I used some rubber hose that I had leftover from something. It was like that narrow tubing that attaches to the stock intake (I think). Took a knife and sliced it open length-wise, then placed it wherever the G3 intake made contact so that it was snug. You could always just run over to Home Depot -- you should be able to find some sort of high-temp foam or rubber insulation stuff. Heck, you could probably just use some high-temp electrical tape.

Yeah I think im gonna buy a few different things and see what works best, hmm... I wonder if gorilla glue can withstand engine heat.......

Wait...where exactly is it rubbing?

I have the same setup with out the intakes currently in the mail. I planned on ordering G3's tomarrow but... rubbing eh ? hrmm.

looks like its vibrating off the inner fender well and the AC lines.

Its an easy fix, no biggie.

I put the G3 in a week or so ago- no rub no rattle- cut front as shown and clears fender wall fine. Have checked a few times and all looks good

:iagree: Red, what you're describing doesn't sound quite right. Any chance you can upload a pic so we can see?

I'm at work now and got a hot date tonight (woohoo), will do first thing tomorrow.
