Weren't you having problems with boost dropping off? That's the reason for the torque drop.. Maybe it was due to a restriction on the inlet side of the turbo due to the inlet being wrong.

Default Re: XX Tuning

I can't wait to get tuned by chris. I am just waiting to get all my parts together and get something set up and then when I decide what I am going to do beyond stage 2 that I already have I am going to set something up.

Everything I hear about Chris is amazing and everyone I know that has been tuned by him and the cars I have driven by him are great. hes reliable and performance driven and thats more important to me then squeezing out every last pony.

I am thinking gt52 or 30r I know big diff haha just cant decide. My current pro tune from my last one (no names) is good but not as good or smooth as some of the ones I have been in from chris.

I mean I made 325/340 on a stage 2 (tb,tune,walbro,aps65mm) thats about it but still I would like to see what else I could get out of it with the new stuff...

enough from me.

Congrads man! btw I loved XX too they did my clear bra and I pucked up my APS 65mm from them

Wanted to post this in here as well:

Ok guys, let tell you exactly how it is. Please, if you want to share the info, that is fine but make sure you tell the facts and not the rumors.

Facts: Yes, XX Tuning is under deposit by a new owner, the key word being "Deposit".. The sale has not been finalized, and is still under some heavy negotiation. If the sale actually happens, then there will be a post stating where I will be in the future, I will become a paying sponsor on the site and will be able to move forward with my new venture. Unfortunately, I cannot pay to be a sponsor due to a serious conflict of interest with the new owner, and I cannot post any info because the admin of IWSTI will not allow me to, which is understandable but frustrating. Those are the facts.

Facts about EFI Logics and where I will be (I hope this is allowed): Regardless if the sale goes through, I will be moving forward with my new venture under my own business name. My home base will be XX Tuning, and I will primarily tuning out of this facility for the better part of three days a week. I will be doing all my race car analysis and calibrating out of XX as well.

I have so much to say and do it's not even funny. Out of respect of the paying sponsors of this site, I will with hold saying anything until I become one. For those of you who are interested in getting tuned by me, please feel free to just call XX and setup an appointment until things change.

Thanks guys, and feel free to share this post across other boards that I do not participate in.

Take Care,

Chris
