I'll see if I can get a larger version of the chart up on Monday guys, the biggest anomaly here is boost beyond what was already mentioned. The peaks and valleys mentioned all relate to boost, although peak was 30 it fluctuated by several psi, I have a feeling that many opinions will change once you see the boost curve with a little more clarity. Why thats happening is still up in the air, it's the FP 25psi actuator with a forge mbc that is at it's maximum setting. I'm confident there is a lot of horsepower available with a few minor changes, but Steve has been without his car for a while now, why not the let the guy enjoy 500whp for a little bit ;-)

503 AWHP 473 LB-FT @ 30psi Starving of Air
I was told some changes I should look into are boost controller, Rev3 intake, tubular manifold, o2 elim downpipe, Speed density and a different intercooler set up. The car is choking on the MAF I need more airflow

I'm not a big fan of the forge MBC's and it could be a problem possibly.
Your IC is more then capable of cooling the air charge on a black as well, I wouldn't bother changing it.
Whats in the MAP stage I head?

I see that! that's why I'm tryin to figure out what needs to be changed. I'm not doubting the tuning. I 100% sure they know what they are doing.
MAP tuned it too

Cams were degreed an istalled straight up, no tweaks. I agree the MBC is a problem, as mentioned it is at it's max setting. The IC is fine, for some reason my tuner thought it was an Injen or something smaller. The stage 1 head is a valve job, resurface and assembly, no porting.

In my experience, likely suspects are the Injen intake (not even an S, it looks more like half a swastika), injen lower pipe, BOV that is no longer happy with life. After that I would say cams. Chris, when you say degreed and straight up, do you mean the cams are on installed centerlines yet the cam gears are at 0/0?

I believe (clearly I don't do this myself, I can check with my techs Monday) they are degreed to the specs on the cam card with no advance. As this is a 2.4 the cam gears aren't even close to 0/0 as you know. Appreciate the insights though, the filter is pretty old and yet another suspect ;-)

That intake isnt helping though and I can guarantee that. It defies reason and CFD
