Very very nice bro!
I am happy for you.
Good job, good numbers, glad the hard inlet worked out for you.
I'm loving my pass through STi seat baby!

I totally agree with you (see first post) and it does seem high, this shop however seems to tune a lot of so cal subarus and the only conclusion i can draw is the car was happy at that boost level and with 91 craptaine.

looks like you were able to run a bit more timing up top and it really helped your top end.

power is good now- but I gotta dial in the suspension before I track it.

I'm hoping for similiar numbers. Nice setup and tune.

Are you running maxed IDC's on the stock injectors? Any idea how things would go with bigger than stock? The only differences in my setup vs yours will be 850cc's, FMIC, E85 instead of meth.

at the time, I was commuting 600+ miles a week, so larger injectors were too painful (& unnecessary). FMIC eats spool time, and isn't necessary with vf39. I didn't go e85 because its pretty hard to get here, and I heard a lot of horror stories about large variability in the octane from batch to batch. I don't know what IDC I run, but I'm guessing the meth helps a bit. With ethanol you will definitely need greater flow (lower energy content, etc...)

Wackbards,

Hows your clutch holding up (if its still stock)? I have an appointment on the 31st of this month to get my car protuned and have a similar setup. I just need my clutch to last until the 1st of next year lol. As of now it has ~19k of mild driving on it.

Wow... i'd love to be at that power level with my stock turbo.

I have more mods then you!!!
