Ted B. Tuned - 2.0L GT35R 93oct/E85 - 530/599whp
The owner of this car is local forum member "mega_z". I agreed to tune the car for him, first with 93 octane, then (later) with E85.
2.0L
Built block - 9:0 SCR
Stock head
GT35R
Tomei 270 cams and upgraded springs
PPI ported factory intake manifold and TB
Buschur cast T3 exhaust manifold
Buschur Race 3.5" IC
Buschur (?) 3" TBE
FIC 1450
Buschur double pumper
Adjustable cam gears
The initial base tune had the car somewhere around 450whp with 93 octane and ~24psi. After a few shakedown runs, I had him make a cam timing adjustment. We then incremented the boost pressure to ~28 psi with 93 octane and ended up with a safe baseline result of 495whp:
495whp Baseline
With a new clutch, good weather and a trip back to the test course to tweak our base tune, we ended up with around 545whp on 93 octane at 28 psi.
Following that, we filled the car with E85, I made injector scaling and latency adjustments, and following some base tuning, we upped the turbo to 33psi and went to work.
I worked things up to around 600whp when the owner decided that was more than he was actually expecting, and decided to call it a day.

There are a couple of turbos on pump gas that can make 600whp on 93 octane like the hta3582, hta3586, pt6262, pt6765 are all suitable to do it with the right supporting mods

You'd probably need some hardware help to count on that (to do it safely anyway). E85 makes some fairly impressive numbers attainable with simple setups like this one with careful tuning.

I see he is running a cast manifold. You think is worth upgrading to a tubular manifold? Nice numbers!!!
