haaha! You go dawm. Looks like you need an SAFC II on there pretty bad When you gonna let us know how the power feels?

the CEL went away when i hammered it up to 6000rpm =P maybe the UDP bug cancelled the other two out.. or maybe the bulb died heh

power? eh well i dunno, i havent gotten on it much because the minute i hit 4k rpm the exhaust is so horrible i cant stand it. but i can hear my intake open up much better now with the exhaust just having the glasspack.. specially during the 1-3k rpm portion, i can play with the pedal and do WOT and back off and the exhaust note changes dramatically. and now when i just tap the pedal i can feel a bit more power pushing be back in the seat. but again cam, udp, header, exhaust.. its gonna be hard to tell where i gained what from what =p.. i'll be happy onces my muffler arrives and gets installed, as well as the safc.

Did you hit the lottery or what? Just saving your pennies and finally busted open the little piggy?

I was collecting parts over time, then i got my tax refund and got the rest.. honestly i have almost $3000 into everything and i dont know how or where it all went =P a big chunk is the AF/X PCM which i still have not recieved from Howell.

No pcm upgrades for my 03

Unfortunatley my HUGE tax refund went toward bills...but I did manage a few toys...saving up for a P&P head to go in with my mag cam and springs....then I will be looking for a 60mm tb and then maybe an indy intake down the road (way down the road). Still need to get my mag header put on...

Should be awesome once you get everything tuned...taking it to the dyno or the track or both?

dyno on may 13th, stock i ran 136whp. hoping to blow that out of the water this time, now that i have cam, udp, header, intake, tb, exhaust.. and hopefully pcm. then get fuel tuned then its track time

until you get your AFC in, it'll come back.

looks like you will have a real nice NA set up when you get everything done...I am still quite a ways from your starting point

I went w/ the same setup as you did, and frankly it's a disappointing result. So I hope you would end up w/ a more positive result than I did.

So, Im going w/ the SRT swap route now

my new rear exhaust

looks good man. how much did you pay for the camaro muffler and where from? I am probably gonna do the same exhaust set up as you just to hold me off for awhile. Then i am gonna buy a beater then the 2.4 swap will be following!!!! Also when do you plan on dyno'ing and have you opened her up yet? If so let's hear the impressions.

that muffler looks SOOO familiar
Now I just need to get my 60mm back and then follow suite with you

muffler was $49.88 from summitracing part# WLK-17739

but now that i think of it.. i paid $114 for tips/welding + $50 for the camaro muffler and $40 for a muffler i didnt use/cant sell.. i could just got a trubendz rear section and bolted it up myself and maybe have the tips relocated.. for what? $200~ hind sight.. i hate you!

dyno is may 13th, ive got on it a few times but i never really did a nearby timing run so i dunno. it doesnt feel slower thats for sure =p and ive got the CEL to flicker at high rpms =/ damn UDP

AND DAMN IT i forgot to call howell back.. i was supposed to call them monday and forgot and i was gonna do it today and forgot during all my little jobs here and there.. hopefully tomorrow i remember... i need my damn PCM and my $150 core refund

I hear ya there! Half my crap is sitting around.. just waiting to be installed

got the SAFC2 installed today, thanks to sllywhtboy. he can solder real good.

so now its just getting it tuned for fuel economy and performance. and learning how to use the damn thing
