ecu controlled boost + FP black + 93oct = magic
Below is a perfect example that shows just how powerful ecu controlled boost really can be..
This car has nothing special out of the ordinary.. it is a built 2L with oldschool HKS 272 cams and straight 93octane.
ALL PULLS DONE IN 3rd Gear.
Vehicle: 2003 Evo 8 GSR
Fuel: 93octane (no additives)
The mod list below:
Self Built 2.0L
mildly ported head
BR ported intake manifold
BR 65mm t-body
BR race upper and lower piping
BR 84mm intake pipe
BR BFIC intercooler
BR double pumper
BR stainless o2 housing
BR 3" tbe
ported Fp black with 25psi actuator
HKS 272
arp studs
ported stock exhaust manifold
hks ssqv bov
pte 1200cc
Grimmspeed 3 port ecu boost
Graph Below:
E85 is next, and possibly an update on the 93oct tune as well after OP test new timing map I sent. car currently has no knock, so i believe it may take another degree bumping it to approx 520ish.
Update: (heres the extra degree uptop. This graph represents the actual torque shelf i created for this vehicle.) - I wish he put it on a dynojet. id put $ that it makes 520 on a real dyno.. theres no way its flat lining like this with 33-34psi uptop.
Update2: (4th gear)

Let me tell you guys, this is my car and Tom is the real deal for sure!. I didnt think this much power would be possible on hks272 cams but here you go. I cant thank Tom enough for all of his hard work. My car seems to be a beatch to tune but Tom never gave up and definately made the power. I cant wait for e85 and better cams.

Grimspeed BCS is definitely worth the money but knowing how to set it up properly is definitely key 
Great numbers Tom! Definitely the best results I've seen from the older HKS grinds with the pump/black combo.
Let me know when you're ready to upgrade those cams Josh

Nice, I am also happy and I am in the same boat as you when it comes to tuning my car but Tom did not give up and its sweet now. My E-85 tune is next as well and later a new set of cams. It seems Tom is pulling magic out of his hat as you and me have got some good power for a crappy set of cams im running the Comp 272's currently.

The boost curve is wrong though, its actually 1psi less. i set the omni map up wrong.
Also, few people will be contacting you regarding throttle body shaft seals

without the proper parts combination the setup can only do so much.. the HKS cams are mild, but still get the job done. that and the boost curve is what makes this car what it is.
