The little turbo that could evo IX SSL mild bolt ons 93oct 155K miles on the clock!
With cold temps now comes nice power. Alex requested me to post this up, i don't have any pics of his car, hopefully he can put some in here to liven the thread up. I know people get sick of looking at graphs only.
He wanted something very safe, and i wasn't sure why, but i did my thing.
Not until after I was done tuning it he told me it had 155K miles on it. Of course I was surprised as always. I think the highest mileage ive tuned to date was around 250K miles. These little suckers hold together quite well!
Mods are:
MAP O2 eliminator w/ wastegate dump
Test pipe and catback
Intake pipe
ETS short route intercooler piping
Grimmspeed 3 port BCS
SD intake
PTE 880cc injectors
Walbro 255
Tephra v7 SD /w ecuboost

Huge props to Tom for his outstanding work! 
I knew he had an incredible reputation, but I was only expecting around 360 hp at most. He delivered everything I asked for. I wanted a safe, reliable tune for my aging stock motor that still kicked some ***. Temps were in the low 60's for the majority of these pulls. My only complaint is that now I need a new boost gauge because mine is maxed out 
Here's the latest pic I've taken of the car. I'll add more later.

any kind of GSC cam will work. FMIC ETS already commented in your thread
Head studs standard ARP studs will work just fine. If on stock turbo you wont ever need the studs though. I have some guys around 600whp on stock block with stock studs and HG so i dont think its necessary, but if detonation were to ever occur it would save the head from lifting. So its a good idea to do.
congrats
