VR speed tuned HKS 7460GTII 94oct 416/383
the car had been previously tuned but was never tuned to its full potential because the clutch had been slipping during the pulls. also, it had a problem with false knock from the day i bought it, and putting in the QM twin only made matters worse.
what impressed me the most is that Tom @ VR-speed spent 15 revisions fine tuning the knock sensor alone. knowing that i road race the car for various lapping days and time attacks, he made sure i got a 100% safe and reliable tune, so he didn't push it for max numbers. needless to say though, the car rips hard consistently with no knock sums across the board. it spools incredibly fast (300lb/ft by 3,300rpm in 3rd ), hits hard and pulls all the way to the top. keep in mind too, this is at 2,200ft above sealevel and i'm sure that robs a bit of power as well. the outside temp during the runs was around 60 degrees and there was actually a run that made close to 430, not bad for a turbo that spools as fast as the 9 turbo (if not faster) and has noticeably better response
Mods:
Evo 9 RS
GTII 7460R
Cosworth M2s
Injen UICP, LICP, intake +Amsoil cone

94oct - although i've heard many say our Canadian "94" isn't even as good as the US 93oct
