IAT solution

ClubGP Store: SLP Air Temperature Module

is this safe to use on a stock L67? and i heard it will help get rid of that loud ass gurgle the intake makes when its cold? is this true and will i really see 5-7 horse power?

 

[stlmo_gtp]

I've heard that these are safe to use but as for the gurgle noise i am not sure that it will get rid of that

Save your money

agreed save your money, and the gurgling sound has to do with the IAC not IAT.

switching to a north star throttle body will rid the intake sucking, i just upgraded from a stage 2 l36 and its very quiet at cold start

 

[gotboost3]

alright cool where you get the STG2 from?

 

[gotboost3]

is there any other solutions to making that noise go away? is it possible to bore out a part of the IAC passage or something like that?

The upgraded sensor that reptile sells got rid of that nasty noise for me I believe the cost was $30 well worth it if you ask me .Chico.

 

[gotboost3]

so it got rid of that gurgle/pop noise when accelerating with the engine cold?

Impossible. Like, GTP SE, said, yur talking about two different things. The IAT sensor wont do **** about the IAC noise.:th_laugh-lol2:

where can you get that north star tb?

 

[TDCRacing]

You don't want one. Got a ZZP 78MM TB for sale though

Lots of solutions, actually. These are all tried and true. Trust me.

1.) Turn the radio up louder
2.) Earplugs
3.) Move to Florida
4.) Never start your car when it's below 40*

If none of these work, or sound feasible; then go ahead and start your car - and then start yelling "LALALALALALALALALA" as loud as you can for about 3-5 minutes - covering your ears while doing this will quiet the gurgling sound, too.

No need to thank me.

^^^^ROFL...On another note, don't listen to TDCRacing...there isn't anything wrong with N* TB setups especially if you can grab one on the cheap...now the LS1's I would not recommend (I have one)...too many compromises with that setup, but then again unless you find one in the classifieds you won't find one.

 

[01supercharged]

like an actual throttle body off an LS1?

 

[TDCRacing]

Like I said, I have never used one personally. But you are the first person that I have heard of about 9 total that said they actually liked there N* setup. I hear no complaints except for the mushy pedal feel.


I don't wanna hear no one crying when they buy one and don't like it though. So take my time and effort trying to warn you for what you want.


Just trying to help. I guess the pedal feel does not bother some people.


Let me ask you this. There was a difference in pedal feel right?

 

[TDCRacing]

This is what I found when I typed in Northstar in the search...1st post at the top all in the same post. Did not bother looking anymore.

But don't listen to me

i actually got rid of a northstar setup i had just out of pure spite for the pedal feel. it was too loose feeling for me. i drove around with it on for a week or so while i ported my stock TB and switches back when i was finished.

Northstar = FAIL compared to the LS1...I rode in a car with the N* and actually got to drive it and the pedal feel BLOWS compared to the LS1...it felt all mushy:th_winking:

Go find a LS1...and be happy with b/c they are WAY better.
