Even if he is not a daily driver with that boost it won't last long...my opinion. It could last for another 10 years but it could blow it in a minute race...hope not

Thanks guys for the kind words, Tom's tune is solid and that's whats required to hold the stock block together at this power level. I obviously monitor everything while I am driving, during WOT if something doesn't feel right I get out of it. I should really get a log with my dump open vs closed.

I am really excited for cams, I think with this turbo and a better profile up top its really gonna open up the top end power. 65mm throttle body and Curt Brown ported intake manifold going on next.

We can get some more pulls in today.

Those guys failed to read where i said your 93 octane was very good quality.

no knock, car is dialed in solid.

funny thing is, i could lower boost and make it detonate like hell and post a graph and those guys would
think its a safe tune just because its displaying less boost.

moral of the story here is, if you can't see the datalog & rom, or dont know the fuel quality, you shouldn't be talking about what's safe and what's not.

This isn't a good turbo for autox or short course stuff like that in my opinion. EF2 would be though.

I will get something new with this car soon even in the warmer temps its still staying over 430WHP. it also has a 3" ETS FMIC now on it also.

do you think that,without knock and with proper afr and tune, 28/29psi on stock block keeping the torque under control is a solid car?

Agreed. Honestly, I only auto-x too get my fix in between hpde. I'm mostly thinking what it would be like pulling my car out of "off ramp" at Buttonwillow or turn 11 at LS.

unless you are stroked, no way you should even consider an EF4 in something like autox. you would probably do your first run and then just leave the event.
