RSM Induction

Craig99SE2 · 04-14-2003, 03:40 PM

Well, I have paid for the parts so no backing out now!

I head up to RSM's shop in Toronto, CA after work on the 23rd of this month. They have it for 2 days to install:

- RSM Ported Cylinder Heads
- RSM Ported Lower Intake Manifold
- RSM Ported Upper Intake Manifold
- RSM 62mm Throttle Body

They are also fixing my stripped trans mount bolt and tuning the PCM to increase fuel to match the new airflow!

I'm trying to get a dyno scheduled before I go to show dyno before and after for these mods.

Stay Tuned ...

KpazzH0ly · 04-15-2003, 03:45 PM

dude thats great! i want to do the same thing but i will go to street and strip cuz its closer too me. I hope that u can get great HP gains, it would give me an estimate on what i can gain

Irate · 04-15-2003, 07:15 PM

Craig, that sounds like a good setup. For a long time I have been curious as to the performance of RSM's ported engine components. The price is there... the customer service is there... now lets see some action!

Craig99SE2 · 04-21-2003, 06:18 PM

OK, got back from the dyno ... before the RSM work, I am pulling:

158.6HP and 189.8 lb/ft at the wheels.

I am hoping to get back to the dyno middle of next week. Will keep y'all posted.

F--- the Dyno. Go to the TRACK! The power don't mean JACK of you don't know how to use it!! I hope to see you in Dr. Kyle's "Top 1/4 times" thread.....if you can hang that is......

Good Luck- I think Milan's test and Tune is Friday's....I have a couple buddies that want to go out there soon. I'll shoot you a PM when we're going maybe you can come too!

Craig99SE2 · 04-27-2003, 04:34 PM

I hear ya! I'm just posting dyno numbers to show what they can do for everyone's benefit. Definitely PM me when you go. Dyno results will be posted as soon as ACD can fit me in the schedule.

BTW ... I am home and I am a VERY happy camper!

The car pulls H-A-R-D in mid to upper RPM's! Now for the photos ...

Nice job Craig

I noticed that you ditched the CAI and put the battery back in the engine bay, any reason?

I actually did that a while back. I just never had recent engine bay pics!

It was when I was unemployed and hurting for money, so I sold the CAI and battery kit. I have a new battery kit sitting on my living room floor waiting for a sunny weekend ...
