Hey everyone,

Ive recently gone through a lot of trouble and money trying to get my car tuned right. Ive been to RIPP Mods 3 times over the last 2 months and have spent over $1200. I'm not happy with the numbers im producing and im here looking for some help

Here are my modifications:
EVO IX
3" Turboback
Injen Intake & Piping
Hallman MBC
280/280 Custom Web Cams from RIPP Mods
o2 Housing
Megan EL Manifold
AMS Downpipe
AMS Race FMIC
780cc Injectors (precision I think)
Fuel Pressure Regulator
ACT Clutch & Flywheel
RIPP Methanol Injection


The 1st time I went to RIPP Mods I had 272/272 HKS Camshafts in and no Methanol.. no FMIC. I put down 330WHP.. RIPP Mods told me there was a problem with my Cams and to come back with the stock intake cam in.
I went back with the stock intake cam in and the AMS front mount. Put down 310WHP
Went back AGAIN got there custom cams and methanol.. put down 370WHP

On the dyno @ RIPP Mods I put down 369WHP. I feel that is way too low for what is done to my 9.

Anyone have any suggestions or recommendations.. similiar expierences?

I would go with Ivey.

Do you have a Walbro? I don't see it in your sig, I know IX pumps are better than VIII's, but with those mods I'd have a pump.

Why are you running the AMS Race FMIC with the stock turbo? That thing is too large for your setup.

End your searching and take it to www.iveytune.com. Takes an experienced tuner to know one.

You won't be disappointed. Everytime I go there I walk out smiling. I'm sure you'll do the same.

How much boost and what type of dyno? 370whp isnt bad for a stock turbo as long as it wasnt a dynojet.

370 with meth is horrible

IVEY ALL THE WAY ! ! ! ! ! !
I have had tunes from 2 other (reputable and well known local) shops already and Sean Ivey is the third... 3rd times the charm b/c he is an awesome tuner and is always around if you have any questions or just want some info on upgrades/ parts. I don't bash people on forums due to the fact that every shop will have it's good and bad experiences...I will never recommend those shops, but when someone is good I'm the first to brag and spread the news.
IVEY FOR THE BEST TUNE AND RESULTS ! ! !

by the way... my signature does not represent my last tune from Ivey b/c i am still due for a dyno run since he was in the midst of moving when he tuned my car... i should be much faster and running about 28-29psi
