not to bash TT's tuning or anything, but when we first opened the map that TT built for the car, most of the powerband (Around the 19-22 psig range from 3000 to 5500) the timing was set at 3 degrees... at higher rpm it finally ramped up to 8 degrees... this seemed real low to me, and we immediately set it at 11 degrees... we've just been playing from there... the spark plug issue has kept us from tuning with more boost, and from advancing the timing anymore... on the race gas tune, we made about 6-7 pulls on the street and left it at that... i fully expect to get closer to 500 on this same setup, and then some more with the intake manifold and intercooler/piping...

So, in a while we'll be posting some more dyno sheets with increased power output... see what this new 4g63 will make (having personally made close to 500 on a 1g 4g63, turbo being the limiting factor)

The ems was tuned right and there was no noise in the motor. I've tuned cars in cali with -1 degrees at peak torque going to 4 degrees up top. Depends on the gas....
