Is anyone here using the descendant intake manifold, or their cable throtle body. if so what mods have you guys done for it to work right?

 

learn to search....

If you had searched instead of being lazy... you would have found the weapon R intake manifold...

 

i am on boost i dont need long runner, ive searched for that one already. i just wanted to know other peoples posetive opinions.

 

Wow.

That was an ASinine thing to say.

If you would have read past the title, you would have seen he wanted clarification on an intake manifold. Not where to find someone who makes an intake manifold.

That just makes you look lazy, lmao.

Anyways.

OP let me see if I can remember the screen name of the guy from puerto rico who did something like that I believe.

 

And as the rules state, don't just tell someone to search... help them search. Give some keywords or threads that YOU found while searching.

Basically, don't be a dick.

Maybe he can lead you in the right direction. I know he did a TB swap on a tc, with something a lot bigger. He's also built some quick TCs.

Edit: Just saw this too, lol.

Yes the blitz kit is quite ok but only for better throtle response it will not make you achive 100% open throtle. normaly our throtles only open up to 81% which is not bad, but as for me i have the s/c and the tune closes your throtle up to 40%+/- when stepped on around 4k thats why when you install a boost gauge your boost will drop. the only way to get passed this is to either install a cable throtle or get a new ecu and tune it myself. thanks for the help

 

I guess i'm trying to figure out what you said ^^

So in reality, the TB only opens up about 81% when at WOT??????

If so, the only way to get passed this is with a Cable'd TB????

or an ECU swap (standalone/piggyback?)???

I have a hydra btw.

Please explain, lol.

My curiousity has gotten the best of me.

 

i figured this out when i was tuning the car, i have an fic btw. in 1st and 2cnd gear you will see full boost in your gauge but when in 3rd and so on your boost will drop at 4k rpm this is a safety that trd did to protect the motor, its part of the trd tune. the s/c can actually produce alot more power if it wasnt for this feture. i dont know about the earlier years but mine is an 08 and it does this. if you want to see how your car is running, hook up and actron auto scanner and you can see all the paramaters of the motor.

 

I'll be installing my Descendant IM very soon. Keep an eye out for the thread starting soon with dyno numbers. Still prolly a few weeks away. Stock throttle body though.

 

it will be interesting to see how the 3D fuel map would look after the tune

 

Yeah my scangaugeII shows that throttle on our cars maxes out at 80%. I have an 07. I Checked my buddies 06 and his shows the same.

 

hydra log shows 102% at WOT lol

 

IS YOUR FRIENDS SUPERCHARGED? OR YOURS? AND DOES YOUR TPS DROP AT LIKE 4K RPM?

 

my friend aj (aka dyltone) is using a custom intake manifold with a cable throttle body. he has a dta s60 pro standalone for engine management, and had to have some custom work done to run a throttle cable frome the petal to the TB.






he's driving it daily and has no problems with the cable throttle setup. here's a vid from the dyno.

 

THAT WAS A GOOD PULL. DID EVERYTHING HAD TO BE CUSTOM

 

havent heard of that setup in awhile.. its badass

 

Please... the CAPS... turn them off.

 

lol

 

You laugh, but it is one of the forum rules.
