Somethings wrong, I have a 94 Cobra indy 500 pace car which started backfiring about 3 weeks ago. My tuner said it was a loose exhaust valve that wasnt sitting properly.
He had to rip apart the whole motor so while he was in there i told him to upgrade everything. the following parts went in:
Sniper Chip
AFR 165's
BBK stainless headers
C&L intake
75mm throttle body
larger MAF (not sure what kind)
B303 cam
42 lb injectors
new fuel pump, regulator
MAC exhaust
She was only putting down about 180hp to the wheels on a mustang dyno before,
he called me and said she put down 230hp to the wheels after all those mods, i was expecting a MUCH higher increase in power and i have no idea what went wrong. I have not gone to see the car yet or drive it but i am definitely disappointed. He told me she would be putting down 300 to the wheels easy.
im very disheartened by all of this, i spent a ton of money on this project thinking it would be a one and done deal.
Do you guys think he tuned it wrong? all of the research ive done says those mods should have made her into a monster. His suggestion as to why it was so underperforming is because i told him it needed to pass emissions, which meant drawing air from the heads to the Cats to cool them. i still dont believe that it would lose 70hp to make the car emissions legal.
I need your suggestions.
