2015+ 5.0 minor bolt-on results..... anybody local ?

[Troll]

I know I can search the www for this info. but just wondering if anybody local has installed some minor stuff (cold air, mail-order tune, axle-backs) on their S550 and if you got a baseline dyno and after. American Muscle is claiming 34RWHP and 47RWTQ with just a JLT intake and Bama tune.

I was just placing this virtual order for my virtual 2016.

Nice how you broke the torque curve at the intersection. You a draftsman?

You think I actually made that? Google images baby.........let the virtual world do all the work for you!!

You couldn't pay me to run a Bama tune. Take it to Tim to get tuned. If you need to do it mail order go with AED or even Lund.

All of this.^

OK... no Bama tunes here.

I second Lund and their Ngauge is awesome. The things I have seen them do with it is amazing. They tune Beefcakes car and it's the fastest true 2015 in the nation at the moment

[Mark Aubele]

Not sure if this is dragging this off topic, but has anyone seen any verifiable gains with a CAI on the 11-16s? Still running stock airbox can't seem to get a definitive answer. They pick up on the dyno with the hood open but has anyone picked up MPH?

[PaxtonShelby]

I've never heard anything good about CAI's. Seems like the tune is where the gains come from. The factory air box isn't too bad from what I've read.

[Mark Aubele]

Yeah, staying NA probably for next year just trying to find some more hp. Going with Boss+TB or Cobra Jet setup.

Yeahloh95 on here has the cj set up on a 12. Makes solid power. I believe he was thinking about a boss intake but went the cj route.

Thanks Pure Stock.

Yeahloh, did you run the car with the stock manifold then the CJ? More concerned with the mph gain rather than ET for what I do with the car.

[Pure Stock]

Thanks Pure Stock.

10-15 whp over the stock intake with a trade off in some midrange. Extending the operating range roughly 1,000 rpm may make it worth it as far as not needing to shift. I have a graph overlayed with a stock intake manifold vs. A complete cj setup. Not a dead nuts comparison though. It is a GT stock manifold vs a Boss with cj. The GT is ahead of the cj until about 5,600 rpm. After that it's cj.

From the one vid you posted it looked as though excluding the launch the engine gets down to around 4,000 rpm.

Yes, and I short shifted a couple times, but the highest I ever shift the car is 6800. At the last hillclimb I was going through the finish at 7600 in 4th (3.31s) on the limiter for a while, wasn't sure if it would pull 5th with a last second shift. I think the car would go faster with a Boss or CJ as much time as I could spend from 5000-7600 or so. CJ is some serious coin over the Boss, most dyno tests I see don't show a significant difference between the two.

I'll be doing Lund tune over the winter on my 15. I had his tune on my 11, and it was quite noticeable. No dyno time, only butt meter.

Loss of power on this test with intake and TB.

Big gains from 5500-7000 with cams.

Why the hate on Bama tunes?

I've seen the review from a few years ago that they weren't happy, but they seem to have gotten their s*** together.

Is there something in the data logs one should look for that is "bad"?
