    Jason / Steve - Great job on the mod! Looks amazing (both of the C8's). I recently had the intake installed on my car and Steve was instrumental in talking my guy through the nuances of the install. You guys are great! Keep the excellent content coming!

    Yeah, this is a serious performance mod that has results in more HP to prove it. MSS springs next and i call it finished. You most certainly can get the Stingrays handling performance up by using those springs, and that company aint no joke either.

    • @FrontSeatDriver
      @FrontSeatDriver  Год назад +1

      I wonder how much the springs run? I’m still debating whether I keep this or go Z06. My allocation hasn’t come up yet so I have time to decide. I’m still not sure I want to spend all that extra money

      @thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921 Год назад

      @@FrontSeatDriver Im telling you right now that you own enough performance in that Stingray to last a complete lifetime even if you are a avid track going dude. The Z06 is tuned from the factory to be that way, and the Stingray is tuned for comfort , BUT BOTH ARE Y CHASSIS CARS THAT ARE GTLM BASED. A LARGE part of the entire C8 series is related to THOSE SPRINGS because the MAG RIDE settings are not so far off ON EVERY C8 SERIES CAR, and thats what people simply dont understand about Y chassis cars . 170,000 is a heck of a lot of money in this world, and if you got medium size physician practice money then yeah.

    At around the 4:15 mark y'all mentioned the frustrations of "opening and closing" the HTC. Can the trunk lid be taken off? It's only four bolts (as far as I can tell). Just mark the alignment before removing. I suppose the soft close mechanism would present a complication but I do seem to remember another video where they opened both lids but at a compromised angle and extra padding in-between the two edges.

    • @FrontSeatDriver
      @FrontSeatDriver  Год назад +1

      That’s a good question. One we didn’t even think of. I don’t know if the soft close part would present any issues or not.
      Unfortunately the trunk locks when the top is open so I am not sure of a way to get both to open at the same time.

    Question, I installed the Eventuri in my 25 HTC last weekend (PIA....also took a hacksaw to it), and I'm not completely sure I've got the intake fully inserted in the throttle body boot. Did your boot bottom out right at the base of the MAF sensor plug on the intake? Mine is maybe a quarter inch shy of touching the MAF plug housing.

    Will this increase the 0-60 time? I’ve seen a few videos about this and everyone just says it looks/sounds good but nobody really goes in depth about their actual performance experience with it.

    • @FrontSeatDriver
      @FrontSeatDriver  Год назад +2

      I can’t tell you 100% yes but It does feel like it’s quicker. It adds 17 lb ft of torque but I am not sure what that would equate to in reducing 0-60 time.

      @@FrontSeatDriver thanks for the response! After you have it for a while you should consider making a full video detailing your experience with it, it would probably get tons of views because it would be the only in depth user review on RUclips. All the videos I’ve seen about this are pretty much just the install and initial impressions. I haven’t seen anyone discussing the impacts of their launch times, gas mileage, higher end acceleration etc.. That’s just my .02 cents though!
