First Time at the Track [qm vid]
i dont believe ur at 400whp with those mods.. i am at 327whpish and if i miss 2nd AND 3rd i run a 12.8@110... im assuming u bought ur car the way it is now, jus since ur in cali i know that someone can look over ur car and tell wat you have... and 400whp is definatley not wat u have
Hey I noticed that your from norcal are you on EE? just a few ?'s if you don't mind just wondering who tuned the car and where did you dyno the 400whp from your mod list with your mods with an evo 8 on one of our mustang dyno's here in the Bay, would usually be putting down anywhere from 280-300whp. There are a few 400whp evo's here in the area that have been doing 11.5's at 120mph and these cars are on e85 boosting 28+ so I was just curious sorry to put a damper on the situation but the numbers don't compute.

I understand you guys are skeptical but I'm just repeating what I was told.
And I'm not going to GST...don't feel like getting overcharged and underworked. My next upgrade session is going to be an FP Green and a tune from Works.
Your 60' is pretty good. When you got reflashed did they raise your 2 step? That'll let you leave a little harder. Then you only need to work on the next 1260'. I know a bunch of guys that went faster than 13.6 on a bone stock car. But to answer your original question, yes the first time at the track will be nerve-wracking. I'm in the same situation as you. I can drive great any day of the week, but when you put me on a track all of the sudden I shift worse than a teenager on the first day of driver's ed.

So what you're trying to say is that it makes perfect sense that I ran that time missing 2nd gear..correct? Because that's the only way I can interpret your post without assuming you are a little slow.
Yea sorry to say this but the hp on there website is estimated crank horsepower like I mentioned before I think your car is gonna be in the 270- 290whp range. My very first tune about 4 years ago was from Vishnu and it dyno'ed 265 with an off the shelf map and a boost pill running 12.8's at 105 and this is on an Evo 9 usually back then it took only a tbe exahust/intake evo 9 combo to best a tbe/intake/cam gear/cams combo from an evo 8. 12.1 is not possible with your power level and specially on a street tire. For example I dyno'ed at 330whp at GST on 100oct to run a 12.2 @ 111mph. Like i mentioned a true 400whp Evo in the Bay Area will be running around mid 11's and be around the 120mph trap speed range.
Overcharged and underworked? LMAO wow, you are sooooo headed in the wrong direction. Do me a huge favor and call me. Ill take you for a ride in my car at a true 400whp tuned by GST and I assure you that you will NEVER touch that from works with a green. It CANT happen and IF it could works couldnt do it. PM on the way.
pm'd you back. i'd love to hear what you have to say about GST vs. Works. I went along for the ride when my brother got his STI tuned at GST and i can't say i was all that impressed with the service.
Nice to meet you and hopefully some of the info I provided for you gets you moving in the right direction. Let me know if you need any help with anything and come check out our local sight, tons of great info and people there that are always willing to help.
