Default Broadway Performance, NJ

I'm in talks with John of Broadway Performance. He wants to dyno tune our cars and may do so with a group discount. He purchases his parts from Euro Toys. He's confident he can extract 40 hp out of stock trim. With pulleys and ECU tune he says we can look forward to 70+ hp and trq. or even more. He suggested my car as a test mule and we all can go from there. He asked me how much power I was looking to develop. Conservative me said 450 hp and 480 trq at the crank.
He's calling me again so that we can expand on our original converstion addressing our needs, goals and, finances. He closed with assurance that he works hard and endless in helping us meet our goals and making us happy.

I'm interested. Keep me posted. I'd like to extract as much as I can out of my car with the stock exhaust as I ADORE the quiet sleeper nature of the STR. I'm in the NYC area.

Default Str

I'll keep ya posted as things develop with Broadway Performance.
I applaud you for sticking with the stock exhaust. It's good and necessary for power levels up to 475 h.p. The only change I made to the exhaust was take off the restrictive stock mufflers in favor of Magnaflows, an affordable stainless steel flow through muffler. They emit a beautiful mature deep rumble upon strart up that is slightly noticeable in the cabin. When you stomp on it their note is not overbearing (more supercharger whine to exhaust note) and quiet during cruise. In my opinion the best affordable choice for the STR. The engine breaths better and has a cripier throttle response too, I'm betting on 10 hp/trq gain?

I'm interested as well. At the right price I would certainly make the run down to Jersey for a tune & parts.

blackstr, This week I'm visiting Broadway Performance to see what this guys got. I'm not tuning yet, just want to see his facility and the dyno he claims is 5 miles away. He said he'll have his own dyno set up. I conveyed to him I have a bunch of STR owners who want to tune but are leery of shops that claim Jaguar experience but have no before and aft dyno sheets or testimonials to contact. He may agree to a group rate. Hopefully I'll know more this week. I'll report here any breaking info. Have an awesome memorial day weekend all!
