Wow. That's over 400 easy on a dynojet. What are your mods?

I would avoid Slowboy. Their customer service is horrible! I have a friend dealing with them right now about his Sti. Very rude on the phone and don't want to take responsibility for their product. I'm not going to go into detail here, but from my friend's experience, I wouldn't buy anything from them. You decide yourself though.

The customers I know from RNR are very happy with their kits. I have a Buschur 3076 and am very happy with the performance but the fit wasn't the best. It would not fit with my HKS downpipe and took some custom fabrication to get any dp to work.

My car with the 3065 should hit 500whp without problem on our dyno. My car is tuned only at 29psi on the stock head, stock block, stock intake manifold, stock ignition and stock throttle body. By stock I mean nothing was removed from the car and upgraded or ported out. The only thing changed inside the motor was the cams and ARP headstuds were added at the time of the cam install.

My car is actually really conservative as far as tuning goes. It is running a 11.3 a/f.

I wanted David to tune this at a safe relaible level and thats what he did. It made 342 on straight 94 octane with 22-23psi and 462hp on C16 and 29psi. This was done on our Mustang AWD dyno which everyone knows reads really low. The dyno print out reads 31.1psi but the AEM log showed nothing higher than 29psi.

My FULL weight car on 18" VOLKS and BFG KDW's ran a 11.04 @ 128 with a 1.74 60'. My mods are BR stages 1-4 with HKS 272 cams, Exedy Twin HD clutch and a AEM EMS.

I'm very happy with my 3065. I would recommend this over the 3076 honestly. You will get alot more turbo for the money.

Here is the dyno sheet from my car on race gas.




If you have any questions please feel free to let me know.

Our kit was designed to work with our downpipe. Others will fit with some slight modification but I believe there are a few that do not require modification for this install.

jrod....are you planning on switching your cams out to the revolvers? I am sure that will extract some more power out of your car. (I know you are already aware of this)

If / when something happens to the head then yes I will. It will definately pickup some power and torque.

Hey Jrod based on previous test shouldn't you pick up 40 horses using the revolvers? I would think you be all over this 40 hp for under grand.

Jumping from the HKS 272's to the revolvers would pickup 30-40hp along with alot of torque. If I am going to put in the Revolvers I would do a full stage 3 head at the same time just to optimize the addition of the new cams. I know the torque and power would jump up substantially but for right now I am content on where the car is. Its a BLAST to drive the way it is.
