SRI time difference?

6spdChick · 10-09-2006, 11:37 PM

OK so I wasn't going to mod my engine but as I go to the track and my times continue to suck I think I'm going to start modding... So tomorrow I'm putting on my Injen SRI on. My question is whats the expected time difference I can see with this?

i just put mine on 5 hours ago, my first impression is WOW. not much hp gain but holy loud vtec......

but to answer your question, i have no idea if it will make your times any better(didnt really answer your question sorry haha)

put in the Short shifter, if you dont already have it....my first time at the track the only mod i had done to my Si was an Injen SRI and my best time was 15.4. the next time i went i had my SS installed and i ran a 15.1...maybe my technique improved, or maybe it was the SS. ill never know.

Haven't been on the track and I have the Injen CAI with short shifter. I have seen a nice difference in daily driving.

6spdChick · 10-10-2006, 10:45 AM

Whats a recomended SS

Si 4 Life · 10-10-2006, 10:46 AM

SS = Short Shifter

6spdChick · 10-10-2006, 10:53 AM

lol I know what a SS is I'm asking what SS someone recommends

Si 4 Life · 10-10-2006, 10:56 AM

Sorry. Go with Comptech. Reduces the throw by 22% and make the shifting feel a little more solid.

JeShUa · 10-10-2006, 11:17 AM

Arent there problems with the comptech one? like people having a flipped up 3rd or 2nd? idk?

Si 4 Life · 10-10-2006, 11:27 AM

No, that is not the short shifter issue. That is a manufacturer issue.

LunchBoxed · 10-10-2006, 11:51 AM

I've heard that if u do have a manufacturer issue with 2nd or 3rd gear, the SS may complicate the already existent issue...not positive though???

[IVI] · 10-10-2006, 11:58 AM

Comptech and TWM both make good short shifters. You won't go wrong with either one. I personally have the TWM and love it.

Honestly....none. An intake is a show/sound mod not much of a power gainer by itself. Sorry.....

+1. Get the shifter bushings while you're at it. Makes the throws REALLY just...well, awesome. Nice, slick, and mechanical!

good point. Those dyno's showing that power has been added is just advertising. And who ever said more power makes you faster? Idiots huh?

hahaha

Toxis · 10-10-2006, 02:43 PM

I have the comptech ss ($62 off eBay) and love it. Took a whole 7-10 minutes to put it on though... lol

You will not see a time difference from 3 or so whp i'm sorry. Other enviornmental factors/driving factors yes but an intake shaving off tenths of a second on a naturally aspirated car...no. More practice is the key to better times IMO, unless you plan to spend a good amount on mods.
