Eric,
I'm on an Expedition list and one member (thomas_E_Vlach at ccm.fm.intel.com)
added a Borla Cat-Back system JET chip, and K&N filter. Following is some
of his post, including dyno results.
Mike Jones
>>T. Vlatch excerpt: The result show no SIGNIFICANT improvement over
previously reported
STOCK readings in either max HP or max TORQUE. However, there are
REASONABLE improvements in both HP and TORQUE in the mid-RPM range.
All runs performed in 2nd gear (we confirmed the 2nd gear start on
this vehicle).
RESULTS: There is no statistically significant difference introduced by
adding or removing the K&N Air Filter. Deltas between any run where the
K&N was in place vs. any run where it was not are nominal at best. This
even after I drilled those HOLES! I'll bet the only way to get any
HP bang from the K&N is to replace the entire intake system - but then
you wouldn't need the K&N to help you get the added HP, so it's only
value (at least on the X) is that it is the LAST cleaner cartridge
you'll ever need to buy. My opinion.
Of the 9 runs done (5 w/ BORLA, JET, & K&N, 1 w/ BORLA & JET, 1 w/
BORLA & K&N, and 2 w/ just the BORLA) here are the max values from
the best runs taken in each category:
BORLA Max TORQUE occurred @ 3250 RPM = 264.10
Max HP occurred @ 3750 RPM = 179.30
BORLA/JET Max TORQUE occurred @ 3000 RPM = 290.80
Max HP occurred @ 3750 RPM = 182.10
BORLA/JET/K&N Max TORQUE occurred @ 3000 RPM = 288.60
Max HP occurred @ 3750 RPM = 181.70
OK, a couple or three observations.
01. As I said before the K&N results are so close to any non-K&N
results that the K&N can be ignored.
02. The JET Chip however added a reasonable increase in both the HP
and TORQUE band in the mid-RPM range, 2250-3750. 30 addition ft lbs
of TORQUE and over 17 additional HP.
03. So the chip not only increased the TORQUE and HP but also
broadened the band, so now I'm getting more TORQUE and HP sooner,
and more longer. All in all not a bad deal, in my opinion.
04. Not having any actual STOCK readings for my vehicle, and not
having any detailed STOCK RPM range stats from other X owners I
cannot say, for certain, that the increases cited here are more or
less than if compared to STOCK. Keep in mind that my BASELINE is
STOCK + BORLA.
In closing I'll say that I am not as thrilled as I'd hoped I was
going to be with the results I got, but at least I did get some. The
JET Chip is noticeable when installed. I noticed it right off when
I had to climb the hill to Tahoe. Downshifting from overdrive to
3rd takes place much sooner, and it's a lot more smooth. And I can feel
the added HP when passing, and when just crusing around town.
Also, though I cannot say that the BORLA bought me HP or TORQUE or MPG,
I can say that it sounds really cool!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
DETAILED STATS BY RPM
I would ignore the stats in the 2000 and 2250 RPM range. These stats
came from significant spikes in the results that occurred as the DYNO
recorded the vehicle's initial JUMP off the line. Perhaps they are
significant and real. I'd like to think so. But they appear to be
dubious to me.
