Reactive SRI

[Protege_Z]

I just installed a reactive SRI, and couldnt be happier. Definitely the best $60 I could have spent. This is my review of this product

Sound
The sound of this product is the best aspect of this product. It delivers a smooth, rich (not ricey), almost formula sound under acceleration. At idea and constant speed it is just like stock, but under acceleration it is moderate to loud sound level.

Performance
There is a definite increase in performance. Low RPM torque is increased and WOT acceleration through 4500 and 6000 RPM, actual pushed me back in the seat a little, something I had yet to feel in my P5. The greatest advantage is in the throttle response and a flatter acceleration curve, meaning that there is less leg in power delivery. I am not going to clam any WHP, because it is probably very little. Sociological HP is between 6-9 HP depending on your mood.

Installation
Took about 35min. Not straight forward. I had to cut off of the intake elbow to get it to clear the brake cylinder, besides that fairly easy. I moved the coolant reservoir, but I do not like it so I need to move it again.

Looks
It looks nice. Pics below.

The previous owner never cleaned the engine bay so it is a little dirty, and there is oxidation everywhere, and suggestions.

Spray some simple green in th3e engine bay, then spray it off after letting it sit for a few minutes.

I say its running a little rich because I can smell it, also the exhaust tip is a little black, and i just cleaned it.

 

[Protege_Z]

Your right, Ractive, my bad

crazy stuff - i've never heard of an intake causing the car to run more rich. reset the ecu?

 

[FunkyBuddha]

Mine does that....I dunno...but my exhaust tip is always black. Everytime I polish it, I run the car hard for a bit, it's black again.

I have now gone 300 miles with the intake, and I am just a satisfied as when I installed it. Also I no longer smell the gas after resetting the ECU, I don't think its running rich any more.

Are there any air/fuel controllers that work with our cars?
