just installed it..but i dont feel much differneces, the only differences is my RPM goes faster than it used to be..

 

what kinda feeling were you expecting? the horsepower gain is not noticeable...

 

at the very least you should reset your ecu.

but the gains on a ztube may only be a few horses and for a 3500 lb car... = nada.

ppp

 

yah...unplug your battery for about 12 hours..or search for the steps to reset without taking out the battery

 

I installed a Z-tube and only because it was free my friend did not want it any longer and it sounds GREAT when your RPMs are around 4500-5000 sounds deep like aftermarket intake, but as far as the car is faster...ummmm It feels the same to me, the HP gain that you get from it get's lost before it gets the the wheels, so ultimately your WHP will be the same, meaning you won't feel crap

 

12 hours? Doesn't it only take like 20 seconds?

 

+1 I thought it took maybe 10-20 seconds tops. and all you have to do is disconnect the battery and you are set, someone correct me if i am wrong on this, maybe i've been doing it the wrong way all this time

 

Is the Stillen Airbox sounds any better than JWT ?

 

and what happens if i reset the battery? can i not to since i dont know how?

 

You're NOT suppose to feel any power from an intake.

My car definately felt more responsive, but no power gains what so ever.

If you wanted power, you definately got the wrong mod.

They do sound sweet though; kinda like a mini turbo

.

 

^+1
I like it when it whistles

 

^my injen short ram sounds almost exactly like a turbo at 3500-5000RPM

 

when you plug the battery back in, expect your throttle and engine to rev kinda akward cuz your ecu is reconfiguring itself...if you don't feel that, then your ecu is not reset...it takes at least 12 hours for it to clear....OR...you can search for the method to do it without unplugging....you don't need to reset, your ecu will learn over time...but if you want to reset ASAP, then I suggest you either unplug or follow the steps....

search the string "ecu reset"

 

Ed, I told you about that combo not having any power increase and it was only gonna be in your head

an intake won't give you noticeable increase unless you go to the track befoer & after the mod. So yea, start going to the track
