Switched from Red to Black...
Yesterday my car got tuned with my new FP-Black.
However i did expect a lot more than we achieved.
Even though the Injectors went from 85% with the Red to 100% Duty with
the Black now to keep the same AFR'S......the car doesn't feel stronger.
There must be something holding the power back.
The only things that are still stock are the Throttle Body and the Intake-Manifold.
We have not yet been to the dyno....but my popo-meter tells me that
with have a maximum gain of 20hp. .....running the same boost as with the red (30psi).
any ideas?
when is the stock BF maxed out?
best regards,
Luke

I've never owned the Red but I had the HTA Green and now the Black, pound for pound the power was simialar just a few rpm's up with the Black, but just giving it a couple more PSI should get you some nice gains over what you could see on the Red...
Edit: In my case however, I had a new shortblock and cylinder head repair done... which will of course effect the outcome of the swap from the HTA Green to the Black so perhaps my results are not typical

The 2.4 is better than the 2.3 + the 2.4 is cheaper to build. You can get a 4G64 block for like $300 and sell the stock 4G63 for $800-$1000. That will give you at least $500 towards a nice set of Wiseco 1400HD pistons. Now once you have the 4G64 block you can run a 6mm longer rod making it a LR2.4
