Is this a cold-start?

My car with DP (Stock)fires up to 1100-1200rpm for a good 20-30seconds then settles to 770rpm slowly. With the flash it stays at 880-900 the whole time. Going to post a video when I get home.

Well, I was wrong. Cold start sounds just like my post. Idle is at 700-800 or so and never changes sound. I'm now thinking this was due to the tune. It's just one of those things you never really look at much.

Shipping ER FMIC back as the issue with fitment has now been resolved. I'm stuck with the polished CP as that didn't have an issue so no return.

Thanks for sharing all the invaluable info OP! Any thoughts or plans on ever adding a ERIC catted DP (best of both worlds)?

With a cab, the DP was just too loud and all the fumes just rolled right into the cab. Smell was rough, not to mention what it does to the planet. It was one of those things that I'm glad I tried because now I know the difference first hand. The sound of an open DP is intoxicating, but again too loud for my purposes. Spending $1k to have a sport catted DP makes no sense to me, but for some it may. |

I have the Ambient Thermal Management FMIC and it fits great. I didn't have to take any structure out to fit it in. Getting it in with the ER charge pipes is a bit more difficult than with the stock flexible plastic/rubber ones, but I managed to get it all in with a bit of maneuvering and a tiny wipe of silicone grease.
Also I installed the GFB DV+ kit which helped with the lag issue you also had with a larger FMIC. The larger heat exchange area of the Bigger FMIC gives more charge cooling and better intake temps, and resists heat soak at higher boost, but with the older DV it did add a bit more lag. With the DV+ in fast acting setup it helps keep more air in the FMIC when the DV opens. It also closes faster, so it's ready earlier for the next boost build. So it goes a long way to bring the lag back down. I also originally got the ER Catless DP, but it was too loud for me and also parking in my building garage the exhaust smell was a bit too much. So I had my local tig welding guru split the DP along one of its seems and install a 200 cell high flow cat brick that I got out of a new 3" Cat from magnaflow. High flow Maganaflow cat cost me $90 and welding was $65. All in all a great result. The welds are so clean you can't even tell it was worked on. And the DP works brilliantly, great high flow, less noise and no smell! |
