I did some research on the Kit Carlson EMS. So far it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif). But I have one question: approx how much performance boost on a "totaly" (except a custom cold air intake) stock 2.0 D-jet I am look'n at? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
I know is it kind of meaningless to install the kit on a stock engine, but as the budget concern (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif), the kit is is the only affortable engine upgrade for me right now. I'm planing to save some$$$ for one of Jake's massive IVs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) Any suggestion will be appriciated:) |

However, if you also switch the exhaust to a Tangerine Super Header you will pick up gobs of mid-range torque and a bunch of top end as well. Actually you will get all that with the d-jet and my exhaust. The only advantage of the KC EMS on a stock engine is easy tunability/optimization; something you don't have with the d-jet. If you have to have the stock type H/Es then there are no power upgrades short of headwork and a cam. |
