Finally said fuggit and ordered one. I really hope it all its cracked up to be.

 

It works. You will feel better low end response for sure. You know it is making better numbers down low, just doesn't have that wait to get going feeling as bad anymore.

 

sweet , please keep me posted on your results. I am ready to pull the trigger on the deal myself. Considering teh 5/16 spacer becasue I want to keep the stealth look in addition I am consideirng teh MREV+.

Coming from a Lincoln LS though; I believe this car delivers great results purely stock. I am a mod ho and can't stand the curriosity much longer.

 

Yes please keep us posted and take plenty of pics of the install if you are able. Thanks.

 

Dude . . . You're getting the MREV+ . . . Enjoy!

 

I've heard many people say that after they've installed the MREV/MREV+ on their 05/06 coupes, they noticed that the idle RPM is lower, and occasionally dips to the point where they can feel a slight shudder, which feels like the car is going to stall. I've also read that people with CAIs also get this symptom, but in addition some people say that when they gun it at highway speeds, and then put the car in neutral, the engine completely shuts off.

I know that MREV is a very different mod than a CAI (but still shares the low idle issue), but has anyone tried gunning it in 3rd or 4th gear at highway speeds and then put the car in neutral?

 

I have the MREV+ and the Stillen Hi-Flow Airbox, which I believe is one of the combos responsible for the said stalling issue. I have not had my G stall, yet. However, I never put my car into Neutral unless I am sitting at a stop light.

For the life of me, I cannot see why I would drop into Neutral while travelling at any speeds. Is this a common practice and what reason(s)?

 

I don't know why people would do that either, but whatever the reason, it's doing something to the car that it doesn't like.

I was originally thinking about going with DC sports ceramic headers and the MREV+, but now I'm considering just the headers. I came from an old 97 Chrysler that used to always shudder when it idled, so I don't want to ever feel that in my G.

 

then you won't enjoy headers ^_^ - my steering wheel vibrates like a bitch at idle, hehe, but I don't mind, gives it an older muscle car feel as the interior is vibrating from the headers as the exhaust is going VRRRRRRRRRRRMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMm at idle ^_^

 

Sorry about the thread jack, but how do headers introduce extra vibration to the steering wheel?

 

my guess is the extra air flow is making the headers really vibrate and they're close to the steering column......my alignment is fine, no brake/wheel problems, headers are in tight and no leaks, so I'm sticking with my gues ^_^

 

It doesn't seem to make a lot of sense to me either, but maybe people double (granny) clutch when downshifting instead of heel and toe technique for rev matching if they can't heel and toe? dunno?

I ordered the M-rev too, but this issue worries me. I only have a z-tube, and not the stillen airbox, but if the shuttering happens to me and it is anything like the shuttering that happens when u r in 2nd gear and not going fast enough to not stall, I would consider swapping it out cuz that would annoy the caro out of me. Still can't wait for the Mrev+ to arrive though

 

i installed my copper mrev plus today....... There are many changes..... all good. I dont have any idle problems, exhaust note is the same as stock just a tad bit louder(sounds good). It pulls hard on the highways. I had to drive to my sister house(1 1/2 away) and the car just keep creeping to higher speeds. it sounds mean on the street. I have a pop-charger/z-tube and now the m-rev plus (only have 3800 miles on the car) and it screams at about 4000 rpm. I got baseline dyno last week, and i am going in the morn to get true hp results. Oh and by the way... i was getting about 290 miles per tank. I drove 340 miles today and still have a 1/4 tank!!!

 

I originally ran the MREV+ with a Z tube/K&N combo with no issues for some 4k miles. Soooo, simply take your time with MREV install. Be sure everything is seated and torqued properly and all of the reused existing parts are reconnected, as they were removed. Have a great install and enjoy!

 

Right on, topherc29 . . . Glad to read everything when well for you and that you are enjoying your new MREV mod.
