I think the 38mm is even louder/more piercing

What supporting mods do you have, where did you get tuned and what did power did it make?

Nice video, btw

Way to make me reconsider an EWG. That thing is sick! What kind of wheels are those? They are sick as well!

Gills, how much boost are you tuned for on your pump map?
Also, I don't know how well the ebcs is working for you, but an ebc, like the avc-r, makes a HUGE difference.

Have you thought of going with either a front mount or doing alky injection on your top mount?
I ended up going with a front mount because I was just too worried about heat soak and leaving power on the table with a TMIC.

I ended up going with a front mount because I was just too worried about heat soak and leaving power on the table with a TMIC.
the 356whp map is running about 1.45 bar which is approximately 21 psi at 11.2 AFR.

As far as meth, i'm going to pass on that for now. The only thing i'm considering is getting a FMIC down the road. Clark had my car up in the 370whp range on pump gas but he backed off because he didn't want me running that daily with the TMIC although the spearco is a great unit and was easily able to flow it. Just tuning on the dyno doesn't give you nearly the airflow there would be moving at 60+mph and that affects things quite a bit IMO.

I did however thermotec wrap my turbine housing, invidia downpipe, swaintech coated UR uppipe, exhaust manifolds, and turbo heatshield with all other stock heatshields in place and it made a tremendous difference. It's going to take a lot more for me to heatsoak now. My IC is about as cool as it can realisitically be for a TM. Cool to the touch on 70 degree days so far after driving for a good amount of time.

I have UTEC controlling boost in line with the EBCS and it works perfectly. The new UTEC speed density firmware is temperature sensitive so boost self adjusts during temperature changes. I have a map selector switch inside the car with 4 different maps that i can change on the fly.

The map (#1), which i had it on during the runs in the video, was actually my "more conservative 330whp map" as you can see my boost is rock steady at 1.3 bar (about 19psi) on the boost gauge during the second video run.
#2 is my 356whp map and #3 is the 100 octane circa 400whp (according to clark turner. I'm going to verify this next week). #4 is god forbid i need to put 87 octane in.


I'm glad you guys enjoyed it. Spread the link to people who are thinking about going to an EWG. I didn't have much to listen too when i decided. Just word of mouth. I love it though,

burnin, i remember when you had your 20g setup! you and i were exchanging PMs at the time. You've definitely progressed to another level with your setup though, man! Sick ride indeed.

Take it to a road coarse if you haven't yet!

Thanks, and i love the way it's sounding now too
