    From my experience, instead of spending that much on the throttle body, just put high flow sport cats from Paragon, you gone get more sound horsepower & torque

    @THEDriverMod_ 3 роки тому +5

    I would also be worried about running more lean if it can't be tuned for the increased air flow, just food for thought. Hopefully that's not the case

      C8 has wideband O2 and will adjust.

  • @michaelwhittaker5624
    @michaelwhittaker5624 3 роки тому +3

    With a wider throttle body it seems like a wider attachment to he intake would be better/necessary for the increased airflow.

    I have the URP Catch Can on my C8, easy to install and it does help prevent oil from ingesting into the intake and the intake valves / ports. I installed the Catch Can first thing after buying the car, they are located in Florida. You should of cleaned out the oil in the intake before reinstall. I posted it on my UA-cam channel.

    • @autohitman
      @autohitman 3 роки тому +1

      Usually not many con’s with a good catch can…. Other than keeping an eye on it….. Pros are keeping the oil out of the engine, intake, etc…. I’m a MAJOR fan of catch can’s but I do suggest you always do good research!!!

      Watch 5:00 into video and you will have your answer. **meant to be helpful not a di**… lol.. just clarifying as that helped me understand… .. I know it’s a MAJOR pain to get through the rear trunk as there are like a bunch of screw’s holding in the carpet, then like 20 more….. Obviously, trunk would be the ideal as when you do this mod you should get the high performance blue air filter 🙂

    I can't get over how everyone is so caught up in sound. If there is no reasonable difference in HP n TQ it is like some teenager putting a huge noisy muffler on a little Honda that does 0-60 in about 15 seconds. Form should follow function in cars performance is the function and sound is the form. If all you care about is sound just punch a couple of holes in your mufflers with a hammer and nail. What the dyno says is what counts, because that is what translates into what happens when you press the pedal.
