Hot chip
Slam i'm in Kalifornia (Arnold), SF bay area. The 4.6 powered D1 (95) has a RPI -4 cam thats 260 degree vs 285 stock. It still pulls up to 5,800 rpm, a very flexible engine. Full steering lock in 3 rd gear no problem. The chip by RPI is called "Tornado". They keep fueling up to redline vs the factory chip shuts down long before. Factory chips way lean, results like the 3.9 with cracked blocks and constant water loss.This isn't a so so it's a little better chip, it's a "wow" chip.
[email protected]. 9-30-03 smog test with chip installed,
4 of 100 ppm HC idle, 5 of 180 ppm HC 2,500, .01% idle Co, 0.000% 2,500 Co.
The dealer under 7/100,000 mile warranty damaged the cats, they wanted 1,300, i replaced them with Car Sound high flow cats. There was a just a
detectable difference between "gutted" cats and Car Sounds, factory cats were restrictive. Borla SS exhausts great, i sound like a 289 Muatang with glasspacks bad part they drone between 2,100-2,400 rpm right in the highway zone. Must add a Volt stainless steel resonator at the rear. This D1 is a on going project. Electronic controlled pre-oiler is another install story.
