What are your manifold pressures hitting?

i got 197WHP with 33" tire size..

i think i'm less hp because of the elevation here in Colorado. so i guess you're in California, if you supercharge you'll get 300+

Re: Is the horse power i got with supercharger enough?

Boost=manifold pressure. The Trd kit should be around 5-6 psi. The smaller pulley should get you a little more, but how much? Also, were your expectations based on engine hp, or wheel hp? Wheel hp is always going to be lower. A 70hp Increase at the wheels is pretty respectable. What are your torque numbers? If you want high output, the trd kit is not the best route. It is arguably the most reliable solution though.

boost is almost 6 as the tuner said "with the smaller pulley" also , he said if you use the TRD pulley you'll have less boost because of the altitude here in Colorado .

the torque is 285.3

and yeh, that's why i got the TRD coze it's reliable, even thought that i spent so much time thinking about the URD kit.

I would appreciate all your responds here and thank you for participating in this thread.

I will be taking off the 3" lifting kit in summer and will get the stock tires, will retune it at that time and find out how it will be.

Re: Is the horse power i got with supercharger enough?

thats great actually. you need to look at it like this your using an exhaust thats built for N/A an intake thats built for N/A. theirs more power to be had you just need to get your system built around your forced induction now.

the tuner tuned the unichip from the beginning because the map it has suposed to go with DT and air intake and filter. as he said "timing is good and i don't want to change it, A/F is about in mid 11"

I also got the Flux2 "new product from unichip" which allows to have 5 different map. I asked him if he can use 2 maps one for fuel efficiency and another for racing, just to have more hp" but he said you'll need only one map. when driving normal it will be fuel efficiency and when pushing the throttle it will be fast and consume more gas.



the thing is.. TRD supercharger should increase the horse power by 80-110 hp.. and i only got 73 even though i have the smaller pulley
I think you want to be at 14.7:1 A/F... 11:1 seems awful rich..

14.7 IS what you want at idle and cruising to save gas, under load you want around 12.5 n/a and under boost i was running as much at 10.5 on my civic and evo. trust me you want the tune to be on the rich side to avoid detonation, the small amount of power youll get will be offset if your motor ****s the bed.

Brian, by "adaptive", do you mean that it (or some solutions?) will calibrate/compensate to an extent by itself? Do some units actually "tune" themselves and adjust to A/F ratio?
Within certain envelopes the x1 and ucon can self tune for modifications. It won't be the most agressive adjustment, but its better than most ems. Both actually attempt to protect your engine to a degree (less likely to go boom) if you are going outside safe operational limits. Unichip doesn't offer those same features.

OP give URD a call and ask to talk with Gadget, he should be able to give you some feedback and guidance.
