jake91 Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 looks good, but i think you should do a little more in blue sort of like i did Quote
9lumina6 Posted January 25, 2009 Author Report Posted January 25, 2009 Yeah... i kinda see what yer sayen.....i honestly had no idea that the blue was gunna turn out as bright as it did...... i was expecting a darker more navy blue ish.....that would blend in more w/ the black & gunmetal. Quote
oldscsc Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Blue looks all right on Jake's car, but I think you should stick with something that will match your exterior paint (like you were planning). Quote
BXX Posted January 25, 2009 Report Posted January 25, 2009 Nice, but the blue makes it looked like you painted the parts with puree'd smurfs Quote
slick Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 I really can't stand the blue in the bay of the 3.4 car. The blue fuel lines look ok, but the STB looks meh... If it did turn out a darker blue/grey or gunmetal color, it would look much better. Quote

Thats what i was hoping.....the color on the can was alot darker.... but w/e i really dont care now.... it's done and everything is runnen good.... i dont wanna take it apart again til i have to.

jake91 Posted January 26, 2009 Report Posted January 26, 2009 I really can't stand the blue in the bay of the 3.4 car. it is a lot darker than what you see in that pic. for some reason my camera picked it up as sky blue or something. it actually looks just like 9lumina6's Quote
digitaloutsider Posted January 29, 2009 Report Posted January 29, 2009 Paint the STB and fuel rails gunmetal. That'd look sweet. Quote
Addicted To Boost Posted January 29, 2009 Report Posted January 29, 2009 Paint the STB and fuel rails gunmetal. That'd look sweet. Agreed. The blue looks out of place IMO. Quote
9lumina6 Posted January 29, 2009 Author Report Posted January 29, 2009 Soo? what about performance? That's where the fun part is........lol it pulls like CRAZYYY. Raced a WRX in Virginia on the way down and blew him out of the water. I actually have to put a little bigger pulley on. I have to slowly roll into the gas from a stop in order to not get any KR w/ this pulley.....(rite now im ok cause ive been putting 105 octane in it).....but im gunna order a 3.6'' pulley for the daily driving and use my 3.4'' for the track w/ race gas.

Andrew Posted February 15, 2009 Report Posted February 15, 2009 105 is race fuel. dont use that too much or it'll ruin your cat. BTW what is the HP increase supposed to be swapping on a GenV on a stock L67? Quote

BTW what is the HP increase supposed to be swapping on a GenV on a stock L67? Dont have a CAT. lol Umm..... i couldnt give you an exact # about the HP increase.....But the L-67 stock comes w/ 240hp and the L-32's i believe came w/ 265 stock. Putting a Gen V on an L-67...while keeping all the other mods the same....(with going up 1 pulley size cause the Gen V is alot more efficient) id say at least a 10 HP gain....but it could be more...since i got the headers..exc. It's DEFINATELY a noticabe gain....even tho i have to do a MAF tune badly. Quote
MonteCarloDude Posted February 15, 2009 Report Posted February 15, 2009 Nice job, You need to get a new tune and a dyno run ASAP. Quote
9lumina6 Posted February 15, 2009 Author Report Posted February 15, 2009 Nice job, You need to get a new tune and a dyno run ASAP. Yeah.... i cannot believe how much just doing nothen other then the Gen V swap alone changed my tune....my MAF cant keep up w/ the amount of air going in htere now i guess. I didnt even put a N* on htere like i planned.... i still have the stock L-67 TB. But shes runnen way too lean. my LTFT's at WOT are at 7.031. I've been having problems w/ my Powrtuner lately.... it wont scan any more... and im too afraid to tweek around the PCM w/ it in fear of it frying my PCM. I'm seriously considering contacting Overkill and having him make me a custom PCM for my mods. Quote
