Yea I think the tune was good, But I do feel the s1 cams are holding back alot of power and potential for the ef3 turbo. I kno It would still be hard to pass 500hp on that turbo though on 93oct without really pushin the limits of the turbo. I'm def gettin the grimmspeed 3 port bc though. It might be a tad low tune but those cams are only good from 300 to 450 hp and that's pushing them so I peaked at 421hp and 400lb so I kno I made the power but 400lb was high so came down to 358lb. My car is fun to drive and power comes on pretty early in the rpms. Now I jus want more power lol and wanna def crack 500whp. So ef4, piston rods bearing main studs, omnibar 4bar speed density, gsc2 cams, map beehive valve springs here I come lol that's def the safe way to do it right? Am I missing anything?

 

I don't know why you just don't upgrade cams, 3 port and upgrade the spring on the wg to hold the boost with a good tune, that would be enough. Call Tscompusa he will get you that power safely. I mean I made 544 on pump with the 1 up turbo trust me your turbo will make it.

 

sounds about like what im getting into minus the cams, im gettin a 100mm crank to go 2.3L and valves

 

Agree on TScompusa.

 

Hmmm it couldn't hurt maybe ill shoot them an email or call!

 

I am sure Tom will take care of you. He is good people.

 

Do you have a dynosheet of the current combo?

 

The guy I bought my car from made 550 on his ef3 all day. With a stock lower end. I went with the ef4 cause I plan on 600-700 whp

 

who mine?

 

Your turbo isnt holding u back. Your cams and fuel are period. But still your tuner is really keeping it conservative. Cuz ive seen alot of guys with those gsc 1s hit 450 all day. But if i were u if id get keflord 272s. S2s are good but kelford 272s are great. IMO.

 

That turbo is easily capable of 500WHP E85 safely, 93 octane would pushing the limits about as far as i would dare. If your strictly into drag racing/street driving it would make sense to upgrade to the EF4.

Your definitely on the right track though with your new short list of mods.
