ITLL_GO What modds did you have in the car to make that power? My guess is your is stock and just got tuned right? I read somewhere that a 2011 just tuned would make around that power but I could be wrong.

EDIT: Just called airboy and he said it would be around $350 for a tune.
I have not made a meet yet, but I would recommend Airboy for a tune with out a doubt. He is very thorough and will make sure you get the best possible tune. I hope to come to a meet one of these days but I am either working or no one is around!

Yea for sure I'm off the next 7 days so when ever works for me. So that means you made that much power stock without a tune? or is that after a re tune?

i'm fairly sure thats just a baseline. no tune.

I have a 93 octane cobb access port tune from jon @ cobb that he's customized for my car. he's also made me a 91 . all adjusted for my k&n filter maf air flow as well as our altitude. he can't try and lean things out untill i install a wide band.
if i had a wide band o2 he said he could probbaly get me some more power. basicly an "E" tune i do the log's and he does some fine tuning.

I will eventually go to airboy but i wont untill i have the exhaust, wide band and boost controler in my hands to be installed. install it all at once then get the tune. I'm still slightly worried about my tranny and if infact it's messed up or not.. funny thing is with out the AP installed i've had no issues with the trans.. it also goes in to first all the time.. no codes or messages for the week so far.. still might take it in to the dealership for a quick check over.

The numbers I posted are with the tune 260 hp and 277 tq. The base line numbers were 236 hp and 254 tq
I would have meet up put I am going to the river shiver a weekend event for 4 wheelin, then I am back to work for 2 weeks again so I may be free at the beginning of march! so maybe a wings and beer night? They seem to work the best for me! Plus if it nice out I will bring my camera and maybe do a couple of quick photos!

In Calgary, you can also get wheels and tires from Spec R Tires. They actively support motorsports in Alberta so I would personally spend my money with them.

I already have a whole sale price on R comp tires.. i'm just looking for some used all seasons for DD use. not looking to spend more than 100 bucks for 4 tires. as i'll have to get them shaved and have them mounted and balanced.

I have a wickid set of winters with studs, Summers for early season auto x, will have a set of R comps for road course use.. no need to spend 500$ on kijiji crap used tires when they're only worth 100 or less. . the more i can save on tires the more money goes under the hood.

Keep in mind there is no road course in Calgary anymore, Race City is gone. The closest is Stratotech in Edmonton/Fort Saskatchewan. Kind of a bummer really.
