LILNICKO11's ACR is going Mod Free soon.

So since the last time I posted. A few friends and I went on a random photoshoot one day. 3 Neon SRT4's, 1 Caliber SRT4, and a 05 Mustang. I also washed the SRT4 the other day and snapped a couple quick pics with the ACR in my backyard. Today, myself and 3 other SRT4's met up with an EVO and we put my friends Kinetic Wastegate in and I installed my new boost gauge since mine shit the bed. I also got Prothane Race Motor Mount Inserts. Picked up those and the gauge for $22 off my friend. I hope to get a 3 inch O2 housing and Downpipe with no cat in before the end of May. We shall see how things go. After that comes a Forward Motion Wastegate and Diablo Sport Predator Tuner.

Here are the pics of the last few events.

This past Saturday some people in the local area got together. We had around 20 vehicles and had a little cruise and stopped at various spots for some pictures. Right now there is a 17 min video of it all but its trying to be edited for Youtube. We had a good time and I shall post some pics and vids soon. SRT4 day at my local track is on May 29th so I'm trying to mod my car a little bit more before I go as well.

COPY AND PASTED FROM MY PHOTO THREAD BUT FIGURED I MIGHT AS WELL PUT IT ON MY LOG AS WELL....

This past weekend about 20 cars got together for a little cruise and we stopped at various locations for pictures. I have over 120 pictures and 4 videos but I am going to just upload some random pics here and a couple video links. I apologize for the roughness of the video at times. I have a 17 minute video edited with a mix of music but its on FACEBOOK. Limit on Youtube is 10 mins so I had to vastly shorten the video and add so called Youtube music to it so it came out a little bit differently. ENJOY and feedback is cool =)

^ it was in Queensbury & Lake George, NY

So a few updates......

1) I have been leaking oil somewhere near my catch can. So I finally took a closer look and come to find out. My Greddy Catch Can actually cracked on the back side toward the bottom. I may switch to a different brand. I'm using 9mm lines for it i believe

2) I'm closing in on 57,000 miles. I know its not much compared to some of u but it sucks how I only had 42,929 when I got it last July. I had to use it as a daily driver all the way until November when I got my ACR back. Its just sad cause I know I could be around 50K if i hadn't had to use it as a DD

3) I'm trying to pay bills off the best I can while still keeping plans on the SRT4 going. I got myself a pair of MM racing inserts to use while I debate on getting AGP dog bones later on. And also I'm either gonna put a Forward Motion Wastegate or a 3inch catless downpipe and 3inch O2 housing in. Not sure which I am going to do first.

4) SRT4 day at my local track is the 29th. I'm hoping to improve on my 13.9 @ 100mph with only a Mopar Cold Air Intake. I'm hoping to get at least 13.7

Yesterday I ended up ordering a Forward Motion Wastegate and it should be here at the end of the week. I've also decided to try to J B weld my Greddy Catch Can. I'll keep everone posted. My stock WGA seems to hold boost right at 14lbs so I am hoping the FM will do the same and spool slighly quicker.

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Wed May 19, 2010 4:46 pm

On a turbocharged car it would be best if you just buy a new catch can rather than being ghetto about it. Or remove the can all together until you can get a new one. JB weld is fail.

come on now. im pooor. haha. I will eventually get a new catch can but I have other things on my mind right now. So the J B Weld is just a temporary fix.

Catch Can = $20 fix for the DIY catchcan.

BTW: I would have sold you my FM wastegate. I'm debating on going back stock wastegate w/ a dsp.

Tired of PTB

measy27 · Post by **measy27** » Wed May 19, 2010 9:25 pm

FM is the best way to go...

13.7 is gonna be hard with just a CAI, unless u drive the sh** out of her..

The FM wastegate will get u 13.7s easily.. mid 13's all day.

did you cap any of your solenoids? I'm going to stay PCM controlled boost but I am gonna try out the FM WGA. Hoping for a spike at 16 and hold at 14. I will also eventually get a DSP too.

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Wed May 19, 2010 9:50 pm

Then take it off until you can get a new one. You're only creating boost leaks.

I heard the FM works best when its on PCM control.. U can probably get it to spike higher.. dont go past 18PSI if you do though.. I dropped .4 seconds off my 1/4 with just the addition my Kinetic wga. that was at a 18 PSI spike. Not sure what it held though..

LowNSlow · Post by **LowNSlow** » Wed May 19, 2010 10:19 pm

Mines not on PCM control... it was that way when I got the car. I might go back to PCM Control and DSP though.

lilnicko11 · Post by **lilnicko11** » Wed May 19, 2010 10:27 pm

^ if i spike too high though I will throw the overboost code. I think even PTB can cause the code to pop up

LowNSlow · Post by **LowNSlow** » Wed May 19, 2010 10:30 pm

PTB can yes... I haven't thrown any codes and I spike 19 and fall to 15-16.

measy27 · Post by **measy27** » Wed May 19, 2010 10:42 pm

If anything, delete the red line from the solenoids and cap off the nipple in the coldside pipe. that will keep you from throwing the overboost code.. PTB sucks ass btw..

lilnicko11 · Post by **lilnicko11** » Thu May 20, 2010 7:24 am

Well the FM WGA supposedly doesnt have as much PTB as the AGP and Kinetic so hopefully I will be able to live with it. If I get that annoyed I will just put stock back in. Is the FM adjustable like the AGP or has to be taken off like the Kinetic? I'll try adjusting it on my own without capping it but if I throw the code then I'll go back and cap it.

measy27 · Post by **measy27** » Thu May 20, 2010 7:36 am

Yup its adjustable just like the others..

lilnicko11 · Post by **lilnicko11** » Fri May 21, 2010 4:49 pm

I will have pics up soon but today I put in the Prothane MM Race Inserts and my new Forward Motion Wastegate Actuator. I am still on PCM controlled boost and have all my solenoids. I put it in and when on a test drive before adjusting the boost. Right out of the box I am spiking around 17.5-18lbs and around 5k I drop to 15ish so I am very happy. I'll leave it as is and turn it up on track days.

don't turn it up.. If you go higher the your car will lean out.. that's pretty much the limit until you get fuel mods and a tune.

^ I heard that you can go up to a 19-20 spike since the 04's and 05's come with stage 1 injectors and SRT4's tend to run a lil on the rich side stock.

I am currently out in the driveway taking my cold air intake of my ACR. I've learned my lesson from hydrolock after coming back from Carlisle last year. I wouldn't worry as much if there was a splash shield made just for it like my Mopar Cold Air Intake on my SRT4.

They do run rich, but trust me.. my car crept into the 13's afr at 19 PSI . the afr dont richen up after the psi drops to red line either.. They stay lean and its not good.. trust me..

get a wideband soon.. those things are very important..

Nice work dude... car is coming along nicely. I gotta get up the the LG area for a little cruise action!

lilnicko11 · Post by **lilnicko11** » Mon May 24, 2010 11:48 pm

Ok then i'll stick with my 17-18 spike and 15 hold.

Anthony: Thanks man. Trying to balance school, bills, debt, girlfriend, and car. It's a challenge. And yeah LG is fun even though its fairly small. Nice new sig by the way.
