PlanoEvo's 2.3 EF3
Last year threw a rod and time for a new engine. I decided to go with a Map stage 2 2.3 with custom Wiseco HD 1400 at 10.5:1 . Almost a year later from the engine failure after many hours and beers I finally got back on the road. I have to say thanks to Map with providing me the best customer service I have seen in quite some time and overall great people to work with as well as an excellent build. Last but not least huge monster thanks go out to my awesome friends who without their help I wouldn't have been able to get this project done!

I'm no pro tuner by any standard but I'm learning. I was running a bit too rich down low and the dip between 4-5 was the boost falling a bit. Hope to have it near 32psi and definately more up top.

Great results Andrew! I know this car easily has 500+ in it, and I'm sure it'll be there by the NTEC fall dyno day! As always, it was awesome wrenching with you...and of course enjoying some
