Transformation of "Maximus"

Maxicooper · 03-30-2011, 05:22 PM

Love at the first sight !!!

and ......... take her home.

Start to transform ........ Performance splitters, grills and rear spoiler were added.

Maxicooper · 03-30-2011, 05:36 PM

Went to Mach V to pick up Cobb Accessport.

On initial setup, got the "Unrecognized ROM" reading. Cobb said it would take 5 business days, but they incorporated the new ROM and sent me the next day.

All warning light lit up during the installation procedure. It is normal, but looks scary though.

They cleared up after the installation was completed.

It's done ...... and fun!!!

Big thanks to Cobb and Mach V.

Initial test drive this afternoon, the car was so much fun to drive. Power is everywhere!!! Driving in DS mode is insane fast. I love it !!!
Planning to do some dyno runs in couple of weeks.

I am new to the forum and it seams to always be that the splitters and lower spoilers on the front are for "Mtech" cars. Can you tell me the brand and or where you got the front splitter? I assume that is the stock non mtech bumper?

Nice car, I have black also!

Keep in mind that we use SAE correction here at Mach V. It's more common on these forums to use "STD" correction, which results in higher numbers. My RWD car only made 264 whp stock, SAE corrected.

With 45k miles on the car, I might need new plugs, filter and etc.
Those night have caused a dip at 3k - 4.5k rpm on the graph. But didn't feel any loss when driving. I sent Cobb a copy of the graph to see what they think.

I will try to go to drag strip for a couple of runs to see how the car will the number in the real world.

SpmnE9zero · 04-13-2011, 07:35 AM

Car looks great, and nice numbers as well.

votoc · 04-13-2011, 12:28 PM

Do I see you driving on Rt 1 after work? I'll see a black 335 headed south with yellow fogs and I'm going north in a montego 335

Thank you.
The number might look lower than others, but the car was so much alive and really fun to drive.

It wasn't me I believe. By the time, I was stuck on 495.

Quite a transformation! Keep it going!

Maxicooper · 04-13-2011, 07:58 PM

Datalog from the dynorun.

boom · 04-13-2011, 08:29 PM

That timing does not look good. Get a fmic or switch to the 91 octane map.
