Stock 96 ITR motor
-My own DIY ITR CAI intake box, similar to the comptech icebox. I used 4" PVC piping to simulate a mugen cold air intake box. As I will explain later, the results was very very very interesting =)
-Buddy Club Spec II exhaust, runs performed with and without the silencer
-Omni 2.5" JDM straight pipe
-DC 4-1 ITR header w/ 2.5" collector
-STOCK CAM GEARS =)
The first run was used with the phearable basemap. The whp reading from using that basemap was 142whp :thumb down: :thumb down: The basemap was VERY RICH. Wasted my money on that damn basemap.
Chris worked his magic for about ten minutes, then did another run with his settings. The results yielded an increase of 20whp. He kept fine tuning it and the best result after 5 more runs was 164whp. A/F ratios were spot on. This run was done with the buddy club Spec II exhaust with the silencer ON.
When I told Chris to take out the silencer, he had no idea that I had a buddy club Spec II exhaust. He said for the next run I should see a pretty big increase in whp with the silencer off. Well, he was right. With the silencer off, the best run was 184whp!!!!! That's a gain of 20 whp, just by taking the damn silencer off. CRAZY!!!!!
The final run, which I don't have a graph of (I'll have to get it from Chris), was done with the buddy club silencer off in addition to putting on the ebay CAI I bought a few weeks ago. The results were eye opening. The best run with the ebay CAI yielded 172 whp. My own DIY ITR air intake box with the 4" cold air extension, gains approx. 10 whp over the ebay CAI. The ebay CAI was made for an EG, and the piping size is 2.5". I'm not sure how my intake box would do vs. an AEM hybrid CAI, but I'd predict the results would either be very close to each other, OR my intake box mod would yield better results. My intake box vs. an AEM hybrid intake, which would you choose? You can buy a stock ITR intake box and arm from any number of places for $50 bucks. My mods will cost an extra $30 bucks tops. Give yourself an hour or two to do the mod and for a total of approx. $80.00, you can have an intake that'll outperform any ebay cold air intake and probably the expensive AEM CAI's.
Anyhow, here's a dyno graph of all the runs except the final run with the ebay CAI. Also here's a few links to videos I took of 3 dyno runs. 2 of the videos I did some introductory commentary.

And here's the plot of the runs and some photos I took.
