Regarding installation of this Pontiac G8 Turbo Kit:

We are the parts supplier, not mechanic. We can try our best to help with generic questions, but it is best to consult a professional turbocharger installer with specific questions.

There are no installation instructions included. The install is simple and most customers install it themselves in a weekend. If you cannot figure it out or feel uncomfortable with the installation, please have a professional assist.

Most of these parts are direct bolt-ons. Some are not.

The piping needs to be fitted up. Because of the bends and couplers included, it should be simple.

The T3 turbo flange needs to be welded to an adapter pipe or directly to the stock manifold.

To run this on a street car, the turbocharger down pipe will need to be connected to your existing exhaust. Expect to fabricate an adapter pipe or have an exhaust shop connect them.

Add 24 Horsepower to Your Dodge Challenger with AEM’s Newest Brute Force Air Intake

January 13th, 2010 Redline Motive No comments

AEM-21-8223DC

Many consider the mid to late 1960’s the beginning of the muscle car era. In 1964, the Ford Motor Company released its Ford Mustang. The Mustang is still coined the originator of the “Pony Car” class of American automobiles. The Mustang however would not be the only offering in this popular class as General Motors quickly reacted by debuting their Chevrolet Camaro for the 1967 model year. In response to the Mustang and Camaro, the Chrysler Corporation followed suit by introducing the Dodge Challenger. With muscle cars available from each of the Big Three, the rest is history.

In 2008, Chrysler presented a remake of their vintage Dodge Challenger with a retro model. The 2008 Dodge Challenger features modern technology wrapped by old-school looks. The revised Challenger was so well received that Dodge continued to offer the vehicle for the 2009 model year. Muscle car enthusiasts weren’t the only ones to take notice of the retro Dodge, AEM’s air intake system engineers were also eager to get their hands on the new Challenger.

After investing much research and development into the new Challenger, AEM proudly introduces a Brute Force Air Intake System for the 2009 Dodge Challenger with the 5.7 and 6.1-liter V8 engines (Part Number 21-8223DC). The 21-8223DC is a full cold-air intake system that incorporates a two-piece design to bring in cool air from a 3.5×7-inch DRYFLOW air filter (Part Number 21-2147DK).

The modern 5.7 and 6.1-liter V8 engines offered by Dodge in their 2009 Challengers are outfitted with the latest technology to generate big power. AEM also implements the latest in air intake system technology and engineering with the 21-8223DC Brute Force intake system. As a result, the 2009 Dodge Challenger with 6.1-liter engine benefits from a massive maximum gain of 24 horsepower with the Brute Force air intake system installed. This jump in power output brings the Challenger’s peak power up from 302 horsepower to 325 horsepower!

The 21-8223DC Brute Force air intake system comes with a large oil-free DRYFLOW performance air filter (21-2147DK). The 21-2147DK has a flange inside diameter of 3.5-inches (89mm) and a height of 7-inches (178mm), allowing the delivery of a plentiful amount of airflow to the 5.7 and 6.1-liter V8 engines of the Dodge Challenger. The DRYFLOW air filter media creates a filter that is extremely durable, easily cleaned and delivers excellent filtration.

Up the HP Ante on Your 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0L with AEM’s Cold Air Intake

January 9th, 2010 Redline Motive No comments

AEM-21-687C

The Hyundai Genesis Coupe was released as a direct competitor to sports cars such as the Infiniti G37 and Nissan 370Z. With styling cues derived from both challengers, the Hyundai comes out of the gates strong in the appearance segment. The Genesis Coupe also features high-quality components such as Brembo performance brakes, a limited-slip differential and a Mitsubishi TD04H turbocharger. It is in the power department however that the Genesis Coupe lacks amongst its counterparts. Weighing in at a hefty 3,294 Lbs., the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine only musters up 210 horsepower. In class of vehicles that generate right around 300 horsepower, the Genesis falls a few ponies short

Where the Genesis Coupe excels however is in its price tag and in its tuner-friendly design. The 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe with the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine has a starting MSRP of just $22k. The comparatively inexpensive price tag combined with support from the aftermarket community brings the Genesis Coupe to the forefront for performance enthusiasts.

Since the introduction of the Genesis Coupe, AEM has been working on several performance components for the 2.0-liter turbo engine. To increase the airflow to the turbocharged engine, AEM has proudly released a Cold Air Intake System for the 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe with the 2.0-liter engine (Part Number 21-687C).

The 21-687C cold air intake system connects directly to the Genesis’ TD04H turbo compressor inlet. From the turbocharger, the intake inlet tube is directed to the passenger side wheel well. In order to make a clear path to the passenger side wheel well, AEM engineers had to redesign the vehicle’s windshield washer tank. To this end, the AEM cold air intake for the Genesis (21-687C) includes a high-quality windshield washer tank to replace the factory unit. With the AEM washer tank in place, the mandrel-bent aluminum inlet tube is routed to the passenger wheel well and is capped by a DRYFLOW performance air filter (Part Number 21-2047DK). The 21-2047DK DRYFLOW performance air filter features an inlet diameter of 3.5-inches (89mm) and a height of 7-inches (178mm). The oil-free DRYFLOW technology is extremely durable and easy to clean.

With its efficient design, the 21-687C air intake system is able to produce a maximum gain of seven horsepower at 6,500 RPM on the 2.0-liter engine. By allowing the turbocharger to take in more airflow, peak power is also improved with the addition of the AEM cold air intake. This cold air intake system is simple to install using basic tools.

New Honda Civic AccessPORT Maps Eliminate Rev-Hang

January 9th, 2010 Redline Motive No comments

hondaaccessport

COBB Tuning has released an update that completely eliminates the rev-hang issues that the Honda Civic Si exhibits. Rev-hang presents itself during gearshift events. When the clutch is depressed and the throttle is closed, drivers can see that the engine rpm stays constant for a period of time, not dropping even though the driver has completely lifted off the throttle pedal. This is how Honda tuned the 2006-2009 Civic Si and is considered normal behavior from the factory.

This AccessPORT update completely eliminates this rev-hang phenomenon. Engine RPM drops immediately when the clutch is depressed and throttle is closed. The vehicle responds much more like it has a cable controlled throttle plate.

If you are running a customized map, you can convert your map to eliminate rev-hang using the Honda Map Conversion Tool. Instructions and conversion tool download links can be found on the Honda Map Conversion Tool Page. Follow the instructions listed on the page.

Other AccessPORT development efforts are progressing well. We are continuing to work hard to bring the best tuning solution available for Honda tuning enthusiasts.

COBB Nissan GTR Exhaust Y Pipe

December 21st, 2009 Redline Motive No comments

nissan-gtr-cobb-y-pipe

COBB Tuning has announced the 3.5inch Stainless Steel Y-Pipe for the Nissan GT-R. The stock y-pipe with factory catalytic converters is a fairly restrictive element in the GT-R’s exhaust system. The COBB 3.5inch SS Y-Pipe offers two options that reduce this restriction and allow the GT-R to make more power with less effort; one with catalytic converters and one without.

The catted version of the COBB 3.5inch SS Y-Pipe uses custom-spun high-flow metal substrate catalytic converters that improve flow while protecting the environment by reducing emissions. The off-road racing y-pipe deletes the catalytic converters entirely, further improving flow and allowing even more power.

Both the catted and catless versions of the COBB 3.5inch SS Y-Pipe are fully constructed of 304 stainless steel and TIG welded. The stainless steel flex sections are internally-lined for added lifespan and smoother exhaust flow. Dual 3inch downpipes feed into a 3.5inch main pipe. Designed as a direct factory replacement part.

The following dyno chart compares a stock untuned Nissan GT-R, a stock Nissan GT-R with an AccessPORT Stage 1 tune, and a Nissan GT-R with the catless Y-Pipe and AccessPORT tune. At peak power, 28 HP and 46 ft/lb is gained with the catless y-pipe over Stage 1. Gains of up to 50HP can be found in the midrange.

COBB 3.5inch SS Y-Pipe Features:
• Large gains in HP & TQ
• 304 stainless throughout
• TIG welded
• Direct replacement for OEM
• Custom spun metal subtrate cats or catless options
• Similar power gains between catted and catless options with stock turbos

Option: Without Cats
Part Number: 5C1211
Retail: $795

Option: With Cats
Part Number: 5C1212
Retail: $1,095

AEM’s ETI Cold Air Intake Adds 9 HP to 2008, 2009 and 2010 Scion tC 2.4L

December 10th, 2009 Redline Motive No comments

41-1401c-ETI

The stylish Scion tC has been attracting the attention of drivers since its introduction in 2005. Any driver looking for a compact car with good fuel mileage and stylish interior that is packed with an abundance of features should look into the Scion tC. The newer models from 2008 to 2010 have brought some needed improvements in the exterior and interior design. The addition of the iPod interface was also a nice touch. Although the Scion tC is a great buy for your money, the 2.4 liter four-cylinder engine is not very powerful.

To increase the power and performance in your 2008, 2009 or 2010 Scion tC, AEM Induction Systems has released a cold air intake system (41-1401C) that will fit the tight engine compartment of your vehicle. The 41-1401C is not a typical cold air intake. It was designed with AEM’s Electronically Tuned Intake (ETI) technology.

This cold air intake incorporates AEM’s ETI module which electronically adjusts the tC’s MAF sensor to properly read air density. The result is an intake system that works with factory electronics and provides large horsepower and torque gains. The 41-1401C completely replaces the Scion tC’s restrictive factory intake system with a gunmetal gray aluminum cold air intake. This cold air intake connects at the engine throttle body and places the air filter at the driver side wheel well. This ensures the delivery of cooler outside air to the engine.

The 41-1401C uses a DryFlow air filter, part 21-200DK. AEM’s oil-free DRYFLOW air filter is extremely durable and easy to clean.

Designed, tuned and dyno-tested to fit the 2008, 2009 and 2010 Scion tC, tests show the 41-1401C has an increase of 9 horsepower at 6400 rpm. Installation is relatively simple and is accomplished using basic tools. All AEM air intakes come with a limited lifetime warranty.

Baja 1000 is Good Test for Camburg Engineering KINETIK/General Tires Trophy Truck

December 6th, 2009 Redline Motive No comments

camburg-racing1

The Baja 1000 is arguably one of the most brutally demanding and unforgiving off-road races on the planet. It’s run each fall on Mexico’s, Baja California Peninsula. The first official race began in Tijuana, Baja California, on October 31, 1967, and was named the NORRA Mexican 1000 Rally. Every year since then, the event has grown more competitive, not only on the course, but first in the in the garage, where the difference between winning and even finishing, often depends on a single component choice.

With little time to spare, Jason Campbell and the Camburg Engineering crew were able to finish their new Trophy Truck and take it out on a maiden voyage only days before the race. They logged 50 miles at night to make sure all systems were operational and to get a quick feel for the truck. All things considered, the entire crew was very pleased with how that test run went.

Jason Campbell along with Jonathon Snelling, were the first team to drive. Unfortunately, Campbell experienced some unexpected physical difficulties and was only able to pilot the number 75 Trophy Truck to race mile 80, the team of Jerry Zaiden (driver) and John Duncan took over from there. The other alternate driver was Steve Myers from Myers Racing. Steve is very familiar with the San Felipe area and was the only Camburg team member to pre-run that section. This proved to be pivotal for the teams overall results.

The final team of Zaiden and Austin Farner completed the race. Jerry crossed the finish line 16th place in the Trophy Truck class, in 26 hours and 30 minutes. Factoring in an estimated seven or eight total hours of down time, and not having to put a single tool on the new truck the entire race, Team Camburg was extremely happy with their results.

“It’s an awesome feeling to finally drive a truck that you’ve envisioned years ago and put into action, let alone to finish a Baja 1000 out of the box,” said Campbell at the finish line.

“We more than met our goal. With only 50 miles of test time on our brand new truck, just finishing this race was our original goal. We had zero issues and never wrenched on the truck, our only down time was getting stuck for about 8 hours behind other people in bottlenecks,” explains Zaiden. Zaiden’s other duties include marketing, being race director and president of Camburg Racing.

“The AEM filters held up great. We only changed out one filter after the dry lake and silt beds. We did this only because we did not have any test time with this engine/filter combo in the silt. After inspection of the filter, there were zero issues and no signs of clogging, so we would have been fine continuing on for the rest of the race with the original filter.”

“We plan on keeping everything the same for next year. The filter we ran worked flawlessly and gave us the advantage we needed over the competition,” concludes Zaiden.

AEM Cold Air Intake System Increases Horsepower of 2009 Honda Civic Si

December 1st, 2009 Redline Motive No comments

AEM-21-685C

The 2009 Honda Civic Si is a sporty compact car with remarkable style and comfort. Equipped with a high-output 2.0 liter engine, sport-tuned suspension, stability control and roomy interior, the ‘09 Civic Si is half racecar and half family car. If that isn’t enough to intrigue you, the impressive gas mileage, kickin’ sound system with steering wheel controls, race-style seating and large trunk make this car a very fun and practical daily driver.

One downfall with the 2009 Civic Si engine is the lack of power at lower RPM’s. AEM has addressed this issue with the release of their AEM Cold Air Intake System 21-685C. The 21-685C was specially designed to fit into the cramped engine compartment while delivering more horsepower. This is accomplished by using a custom aluminum intake tube that lowers restriction and an AEM air filter that is located away from the engine to provide cooler air to the engine.

AEM intake systems are dyno tuned and tested for specific applications. The 21-685C was dyno tested in March 2009, and showed an increase of 6.27 horsepower at 5100 rpm. This intake system comes with a gunmetal gray intake tube and an oversized AEM DRYFLOW air filter (21-203DK). The 21-203DK is a washable oil-free air filter designed for high air flow and great filtration.

AEM 21-685C cold air intakes come with detailed instructions to assist with the installation of the system. The Dyno Chart and vehicle applications for this intake are available on our website

Massive COBB AccessPORT Map Release for EVO X

December 1st, 2009 Redline Motive No comments

COBB Tuning is proud to announce a significant expansion of the COBB AccessPORT Map Database for the USDM Mitsubishi EVO X. Efforts for this expansion have been underway for some time and everyone at COBB Tuning is excited to see these maps made available for tuning enthusiasts. EVO X owners now have over 120 maps to choose from to meet the needs of their specific modifications!

The first major expansion is the availability of maps designed for use with Deatschwerks 800cc fuel injectors. Every previous Stage2 map is now also available with appropriate calibrations for DW800cc injectors across multiple pump fuel grades. That’s 36 additional maps for DW800cc injectors alone. These maps make great starting points for tuning big power with large turbo upgrades.

Since the addition of DW800cc injectors opened the door to higher fuel flow, COBB Tuning went ahead and created new E85 maps for every previous Stage2 map as well. 12 additional DW800cc + E85 maps are now available for download. The combination the DW800cc gasoline maps and E85 maps allows for easy transition between fuel types just by switching maps with the AccessPORT. Take advantage of the additional power available from E85 when it’s readily available, and switch back to a safe fossil fuel map when it’s not. Please note that the stock fuel pump is not adequate to deliver the required volume for E85 fuel.

Furthermore, all maps have been upreved to take advantage of the Torque Monitor Defeat feature in the new software. The ECU logic that checks to see if torque and airflow are within targets has been defeated on all maps. This will prevent DTC’s and limp modes from occurring when measured values are outside of table targets.

All 120+ maps are currently available for download in the COBB AccessPORT Map Database for the EVO X.

COBB Tuning is dedicated to providing the most comprehensive solutions for tuning enthusiasts. The COBB AccessPORT is the most powerful and easy to use hand held tuner in the world. Plug in and access the potential of your high performance import today!
