Baseline on the stocker - I can't give you definite numbers, however I was running basically the same tune from my last IX (307whp on Buschur) except that I changed some timing, some fuel, and was running the JDM Mivec map.
Spool - I can't give a really great answer on this just yet. I've only driven it from the tune to my house and into work, so it was all highway and I have been taking it easy. I will get a chance to test it out on the way home tonight, but definitely feels very close - no noticable lag. Meth also helps out with so much torque available down low that it's hard to tell what is turbo and what is meth.
Spark plugs - Stock and never even had them out to check - just threw in the DLI-2
LICP - It does neck down but is still bigger than the stock pipe, and no matter what you go with you still have the small section of pipe coming off the turbo, right?
Noogles - Like I said in the post, he has it tuned fairly conservatively at 10.8 A/f, not to mention I don't run straight meth, so there is probably more power to be had if I wanted to push it hard, but I don't on my DD. I will definitely look into a colder plug though.
Eric - Yeah I'll have to take you for a spin
As I said in the above paragraph, I am running the JDM Mivec map and he didn't make any adjustments to it so there may also be some top end power if he plays with that. I think the biggest factor is the lack of flow for the meth - that's where I will still see my biggest gains.
Cams and springs are next on my list, and will hopefully go in sometime this summer, but we'll see. I was going to do them first but got impatient waiting for GSC
and wanted some power now, knowing I would do the EvoGreen eventually anyway. After that I believe I'm done - no interest in a bigger turbo than this and I really don't know what else there is to add.
Again - sorry but I do not/will not have graphs until next week sometime.
Thanks guys

No I debated on whether to do the 1x1 and decided to wait until I do cams. Went back and forth on this one and discussed it with several people and my mechanic and decided to leave it stock until I do cams, or it lifts - whichever comes first LOL

Well your tune may get more aggressive with A/F than mine is and you could run straight meth, but yes that's what my tuner said as well...29psi is about max

Those numbers seem very weak, even compared to other Greens. Another guy just got tuned on 91 octane with it and made 380whp. Blockhed made 400whp with 21psi. With 93 octane and your mods you should be around 390whp AT LEAST. Hell, I made 378whp on 93 octane at 23psi on the stocker so your numbers seem very low to me. But, numbers are numbers.

Not to mention, again, meth was not flowing the correct amount. Not making excuses and I'm not embarrassed at all about my numbers, but there is definitely more to be had.



since I have been looking around for FP Green, max boost, race gas, push the sucka to the limit numbers
