We actually finished including road tuning and some power pulls in 60hrs (10am Fri - 10pm Sun). Not bad concidering we worked this around our previously scheduled appointments. (Unplanned mod frenzies are fun )

Total install time was closer to 12hrs total (install, wiring, etc.) - remember, the car was bone stock when we cracked into it.

EMS, small battery, sensors


After the last few ATP kits we installed, we've been pretty liberal with the RTV on the oil return


Coming together


Fuel pump


That's a mean 4" inlet


3" Intake, no MAF of course


Precision turbo FMIC and RnR piping laid out


RnR 3" Turboback with extra-long resonator (sounds really nice)


All done


FMIC installed


Loading up the base cal. It's a boost comp map off of our A-spec car with a few mods for the new injectors and bigger turbo. Got the car running very quickly.


Strapped on the dyno and ready to run.


Needs more boost!!

Here is the best pull we could get out of the dyno before the interferance knocked it off-line. This is off road tuning only (1.5hrs) at 18psi. I was hoping to get the tuning finished, but we're stuck until we can get a proper RPM signal.

More updates to follow. Thanks for all the interest guys!

is that dyno on c16?

 

haha, not quite.

91 octane California ****.

 

HOLY COW! Have some car with your RTV!!
PS: Am I missing something? Only 342whp with a GT35R?

 

91 octane on 18psi. Once the car is tuned for 21psi it should make 400whp or close to it. On C-16 and 28-30psi it should make 500whp pretty easily. We have found the ignition systems to be pretty weak on the EVO's we have built here.

 

We had some problems with the oil drainback tube leaking also. I ended making a piece out of the stock drainback tube.

 

Here is the piece I made. Oil kept leaking around the bolt holes.

edit: helps to put the picture.

 

If you use the proper gasket and RTV it works perfect. We haven't had any leak at all once you do this. This is the same set up used on the ATP kit as well.

 

The more I look at this kit, the more attracted I become.

EDIT: Except for that coolant pipe...

 

What don't you like about the coolant pipe?

 

I'm sorry. There's probably not much better of a solution short of a custom radiator with a customized outlet location. I just don't like the tight fit.

 

Do you think it's too close or exposed to the exhaust manifold?

 

I think some An fittings and aeroquip hose would make a better drain soloution..

 

That is more a custom set up that would require mods to the radiator. We are also the only ones that include a SS radiator pipe and I have seen several kits that get close to that hose.
