Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

    Should add to the sticky, to NOT add the p12 to an f22a6 intake manifold. I know it already says (f22a1 only), but obviously no one sees that part. I did this, and the turn out was...

    -Butterflies not touched, plugged into the vacuum as normal. With the p12, it keeps the butterflies closed at all times. Therefore, you have an 8 ported intake system, and you're only using 4 at all times. The gain in the low end wasn't bad, but the 8 ports not opening up in the top-end, you LOSE on your top end.

    -Butterflies opened, unplugged the vacuum for the IAB system, which keeps the butterflies OPEN at all times, meaning 8 ports constantly open. You will LOSE your low-end. Your top end will NOT be the best, since the p12 isn't set to give your car the extra fuel in the top end (when the butterflies are supposed to open), meaning...you will NOT feel the extra power after 4700rpms.

    I tried everything possible with this p12 on the f22a6 engine, and the only thing you can gain, is low end, but in result of that, you lose your top end. Or, lose your low end, and don't get a gain (a little loss), in top end. I got the ecu for 35 bucks, so it wasn't much of a loss, and it was more like an experiment. I didn't do this hoping for power. People told me "no, no sense in doing it", but for 35 bucks it was worth the experiment. Ended up selling it to a guy at a meet for 55. He seen the gain, because he has a f22a1.

      That's why the P12 isn't part of the original post. It is NOT part of the $500 35hp gain.

        Yea, everyone hears about the p12, and automatically forgets about the pt6.

          The P12 is for the F22A1 ONLY. Once you use the F22A6 or H23 intake manifold, the PT6 is the way to go.

            help horsepower numbers help

            i have a f22a6 motor that is fresh it has 27000 miles on it i put on new seals and everything is fresh on the motor i was curious of about how much horsepower my car will produce with all my mods. i havent put any of this stuff on yet i have everything but the intake manifold and the throttle body... here is the list of mods

            aem cold air intake
            ngk plugs and wires
            dc header
            high flow cat
            apexi ws2 exhaust
            h23 intake manifold
            h22 throttle body bored to the limit

            i dont know where i can dyno my car in jersey so i was looking for a rough horsepower estimate. thanks guys

              Where in Jersey are you? I know of a few places.

              The motor makes 140hp in stock form. Assuming yours is rebuilt, it should be around there. Time, materials, and workmanship can change that slightly.
              With the mods... maybe another 20 at the crank? Not a whole lot... especially if you're still running a stock ECU and it's richening it up.


              Also, that question would have been better in its own thread (or not asked at all, since nobody can really give you an answer better than your own best guess...) This thread has nothing to do with your F22A6 and its mods.
              This thread is about adding power to an F22A1...

                Wake up, pay attention, use your head, please.

                  You'll need a custom tune. A P06 is the cheapest, but the modification and tuning isn't cheap.

                  That's the last I'm going to say about this in this thread, seeing as it has nothing to do with it.

                  In fact, I should probably just delete everything in this thread other than the first post...

                      i've had all 3 motors in my lx. 2 of the stock a1's , 1 a4 , and now have the a6. all backed up by a1 stock 5 speeds. i def had noticable gains in low rpm and high with the a6. its just something about the 4 grand and higher pull that it does. if u can try to find a complete a6 at ur local junk yard it will save the hassel and reep the benifis. i picked up my a6 for 450 with header and down pipe. you'll have to change the o2 sensor location, but thats just a couple wires, so yep $500 or less, 20-30 hp.

                        I'm locking this.

                        Yes, I know it's a great writeup. I know what I'm talking about. Surprise. You're welcome. I don't need every noob and their mother whoring their post count up by saying so.

                        I also don't need people PMing me for clarification. Read a little. Believe it or not, I've never actually done any of these things to my own car. I've researched, and helped others do it to theirs. I have provided you with FAR more than I started with myself. Please, I beg you, show a FRACTION of the initiative that my lazy ass has, and do a little learning for yourself!
