Whats up with Helix?

uhcoug2011 · 11-15-2007, 07:13 PM

Why don't we hear anything about them? Supposedly they're putting up some big numbers for a good price..any new information about when they will have a release?

BoostedBMW · 11-15-2007, 07:37 PM

You don't hear anything about them because the product hasn't been released yet. They are going to start local testing soon so you should start to hear more shortly. I'm very intersted in this tune also.

I'll have their intercooler installed soon. I'll post pics and impressions shortly.

u got it....cant wait to have it, although its going into the cooler weather. Hopefully it will improve flow a bit as it eliminates a stock flow bottleneck according to them.

The big question is, should I get rid of the mesh in front of the intercooler to show it off or leave the mesh there?

I would get rid of the mesh to show it off.....

Waiting eagerly to buy this tune the day it comes out....I am ready for a tune and want to get it ASAP as I can't get V2 anytime soon...

If Vishnu gets their ramped up V2 production at full steam, it may be feasible for you to get it before Helix finishes testing. However from the looks of things, the Helix tune looks good!

We'll see how easy it is to remove once I get the bumper....1 step at a time.

We're going to install the Attache onto another car tomorrow. We will post up more information soon.

Please hurry Alex!! Any numbers by any chance?? I am really interested in the Attache but if its not gonna be ready for a while I do not think I can wait =(

Alex@Helix · 11-15-2007, 11:45 PM

You mean dyno numbers?

Here is the dyno sheet for our Attache tuner. As you can see we gained 68whp and 69lbft.

We are targeting $795. If all goes well with this other car, it should be very soon. Both this and our FMIC are almost ready for release.

Is your FMIC a direct bolt on without any cutting necessary? Also what are the numbers with your tune and FMIC and exhaust, do you know by any chance??

RiXst3r · 11-16-2007, 12:19 AM

Mr. silver bullett mentioned that you were working on directly driving the solenoids like procede v2, so that the solenoid bypass is not needed. Were you able to do this? its pretty much the deciding factor for me between this and v2

BoostedBMW · 11-16-2007, 09:46 AM

^ I was wondering that also... I hope they were able to do it.

ArmyBimmerDude · 11-16-2007, 09:50 AM

Estimated pricing on the FMIC? I'm curious about whether cutting is needed to make it fit as well.
