Default ecs has my vote !!!!

Well i have been debating on moding my 05' vert for about a year or two. I picked it up last friday after having ECS instal a blower and meth kit with #12 of boost. It put down 662rwhp and 567rwtq with already a full exhaust (header cats and bb bullets). Man does this thing move.
1. Realistically what is my base/crank hp I have heard rwhp x 1.15 and I have heard rwhp x 1.2 ????

2.Also at in 5th at 3500rpm the active handling light comes on and the car will not go any faster with out turning traction control off??

Glad your enjoying it!!


1, for a manual trans it's x 1.15, 1.2 for auto's.

2, Do you have aftermarket rims/tires on the car? (Sorry I dont remember) That can cause the traction control issue's.

That would do it. I have the same tires and have the same problem. I read that Nitto is now selling Invos in 325/30/19 which would be the correct size and fix this problem.
