NEW STUFF FROM SUMMIT

[99huggerorange]

As I was flipping through my new summit catalog today, I found some new parts that might be of interest to some of you.....check this out:

KNN-57-3022 1998-2000 Camaro/Firebird K&N FILTERCHARGER.....listed for LS1 engines but should fit the V6 just as well
307.95 from summit.

CEI-102017 1991-1999 GM(sorry 2000+guys)
Throttle response controller, basically just tricks the CPU into thinking your at full throttle when your 70% on the throttle.....take some hesitation out of mashing it!
89.95 from summit


1999 Chevrolet Camaro
Hugger Orange w/ Black racing stripes
3.8L
K&N Air Filter
SLP Cold Air
Whisper Airbox Lid
High Flo Cat
Edelbrock Cat-Back Exhaust
Hurst Billet Plus Shifter w Short Stick
Jet Stage II chip
Hypertech 160 thermostat

Umm sorry to burst your bubble but thats throttle response controller is also known as Casper TPS enhancer which only applies for all v6s that have cable controlled throttle bodies. 93-98's ;)

Any opinions on the Throttle response controller?

99huggerorange, How do you like your Edelbrock Cat-Back? I'm looking for something mellow, but louder then stock. I've been thinking of Edelbrock or DynoMax.

The TPS Tech thingy won't help you at the track at all. It will give you more performance when accelerating at 70% throttle and above but no difference at 100%...

What will happen is instead of the PCM trying to compensate for a 14.7:1 fuel economic load using the o2's, it will see that its WOT and will shoot for a 13.1:1 (not sure exact #) load which will make more power but be less fuel economic.

So basically it will put the car into power enrichment mode sooner.

O.k. so this is still good right, b/c running the vehicle in the power enrichment mode is better performance wise? And if so than why won't it improve track times? Sorry keith, i'm just alittle confused? trying to understand this concept. thanks

i have the TPS thingy on my car and the only reason i have it is cause i have a wet kit on my car and it gives me better peace of mind cause at 70% throttle i'm really at 100% or something like that and you all know that it's bad to run lean when hitting the jucie..

basically he's saying that 100% throttle is still 100% throttle it would already be in enrichment mode then anyway so there is no performance increase. this thing makes it appear to the computer that it's at 100% throttle when it's really at 70% so puttin around town at 70% throttle will give you better performance then normal.

So it only adjusts fuel mixture and not timing?

Well if you think about it it will give a a SLIGHT advantage at the track. It will make the computer think your at WOT when your only at %70 and that time that it takes your foot to get from 70 to 100 throtllte is taken out. Seems kinda stretchin it but i think thats what summit is claiming.... i dont agree w/ it but thats what its saying [img]smile.gif[/img]
