Holy crap those SC sound clip/videos were annoying.

Jeff's does look like/sound like a badass RC car.

need to drop the car off with artech for a weekend then it will be better... or worese. the guy does good work but a straight mid pipe and fm 2.25 is out of his control but for a track car power > sound.

I think of my SC as a catback exhaust, it makes some noise but in the end I am not that fast! I like the whine but wouldnt bat an eye if someone swapped me for an "okay" turbo setup.

your charger must suck, mine is good and fast.

It does suck. It is a Sebring m45 with BIPES and AFPR. On the otherhand Ive riden in a FFS setup with add-ons and a DIY turbo setup. I would still choose a turbo over a SC setup. That is unless I was soley into building a SSM car.

So basically it sounds like a stock Miata except when your hard on the gas, or did I miss something?

Thanks for posting that video RayvnX, I like the way your car sounds

Do you have a dyno sheet that shows those 250whp?

I picked up the car a little over a month ago. Previous owner says it was dyno tuned to 250rwhp. I'm a little skeptical so whenever I get this overheating issue fixed I'll find a dyno day to get a chart for everyone here.

10 psi on a SC = 250rwhp? I doubt it

Right, hence the skepticism. Others here have said it should be in the 200 rwhp range.

10psi on 99 w/ tdr kit is ~200rwhp.

standalone with proper tune will be 210-220.

UI Vandal 06-18-2010 01:28 PM

Maybe he meant 250 crank? Although that seems to be a bit low: 250 x 0.8 = 200whp. No excessively low, but it all depends on tune (see Jeffs post).
