View Full Version : TVS 1900 owns your soul

Goodbye great credit score, hello massive debt. I took the plunge this month and bought a TVS 1900 kit through Precision Motorsports of Florida who also installed and tuned it for me. The price was extremely good, and the service was even better. Bob and Rich and the crew at PMFL treated me right and managed to squeeze 443HP/450TQ out of the stock 3.3 pulley. The stock injectors are at 98% with my current mods so a larger batch is coming soon. They even massaged the tranny tune a bit and it feels 100% better than before.
I got to tell yall, this thing is a beast! Apply pressure to the throttle and hope you can keep it pointed in the right direction. The amount of power at your control keeps a permanent smile on your face every second behind the wheel. Punch it from a 30 mph roll, it feels like someone is kicking you in the chest. I've only been driving it for a day and I can't get enough of it. Best part about it is when you're not hauling a$$, which is hard, it behaves like a stock G8 in daily traffic. It's definitely not the cheapest mod, but by far the most entertaining.
Hope to have some track times soon after I secure some slicks.

The guys at PMFL were already talking 3.0 pulley/injectors/BAP before I even left the shop today. I think I even heard the words 'new cam' in there somewhere, but when I checked my wallet there was nothing but dust in there. I think I should invest in new tires 1st anyway.

Hey when you get the bigger injectors also look into the 3.0 pulley you can get even more power for not much more money!!

I don't even have one yet and it owns my soul and bank account. Damn TVS 2300!

Enjoy it! Sounds like the headers really open it up, even with the stock pulley. I assume that you 'pulled out' at 5800 due to running out of injectors? You had more in there!

Congrats again James, I am glad you are happy. Man, my car gets slower and slower everyday!
Yeah, there is definatly more on the table. Nothing a simple pulley swap and some injectors won't take care of. 500 here we come!
:thumbsup:

You need to get to the track.
I think I'll try it once first on the stockers. I am going to order a helmet.
