aouto speed /jmm headers????

FS5 · 02-03-2007, 12:09 AM

was surfing another site and come across this article.
well what i found was an article stating that with cai ,hsv cat and jmm headers the old i6 is good for 142 rwk

: .i thought yeh right if it was dyno'd at jmm anything is possible .untill i saw the dyno chart and it was done at chiptorque

.sure makes all my efforts pretty lame.
would've been good if they were kind enough to do a run before and after down the qter.i think i have lost a lot of respect for chiptorque and autospeed (usualy a good read).or maybe the jmm gear just works ????

hers a link to the article.http://209.85.135.104/search?q=cache...lnk&cd=1&gl=au

I had the JMM race headers, the JMM cat (that they claimed was better than the HSV one) and the JMM CAI pod setup. It wasnt good for 142rwkw on any other dyno I ever went on.
JMM dyno..150rwkw
Hallam dyno... 135rwkw
G&D dyno... 122rwkw (without the Chiptorque chip)

All the same mods, same car.

In what way?
With the chiptorque chip in I'm guessing 130 or so rwkw was about right. Certainly no where near 150.

142 load of crap. JMM reckon there stuff is Gold mate, and they charge like bulls as well.

i meant suss in claiming that they pulled 142 rwk on chiptorques dyno.i think i'll give them a call tomorrow and see what they have to say.

check this link out from chiptorque,http://www.chiptorque.com.au/Ford/AUXR6.html
why would you bother spending $1750 for a max 25rwk gain when you can spend a grand on some jmm gear and get 30 rwk +,even without a chip.

To be fair. In a manual, with a chiptorque chip tuned to the car.. on a good day.. 142rwkw would be a possibility.

Thats probably more to do with the chip though. In their time they were a damn good thing. I should know, I had one, and it was a ripper. Probably worth a good 8-10rwkw in my car.

casper , they claim to have made 142 rwk(on chiptorque dyno) with jmm cai ,jmm race race headers hsv cat and unknown zorst from what i read.
i made 136 on the same dyno with all the crap in my sig.

Interesting.... I don't like the idea about the Extractors being noisy? Can anyone comment on the noise it made?

**Stav** · 02-03-2007, 01:32 AM

142 rwkws is about right for an xr6 with xorst extractors and chip. I modified my jmm race series extractors and the car pulled alot harder. The problem is that these extractors are made for passenger cars for daily driving.The low to midrange torque increase would be great because of the longer secondaries
