1062 WHP - back tuning on the Dyno Flash Evo 8
Al,
It just sounds unreal.. it sounds like a walk in the park for you. 1062whp!! Unbelieveable man. Congrats to you for the tuning and also congrats to your sponsors for the support as well.
You guys are seting a lot of records.

Congrats on the numbers
Have you tried pressurizing the top port on the wastegates with intake manifold pressure and then venting the lower port to atmosphere? Works for a couple friends that are blowing open wastegates on the smaller GT42s.

It is great that people like Al, David, Paul, AMS etc..have been pushing the envelope. The trickle down effect of all the money that they spend makes it much easier for the more average guy to bolt on a combination of parts that are proven to make power. We are all benefiting from their willingness to dump insane amounts of money into a 4g63 powered bread box. Thanks for the hard work and relative openess from most of you for posting honest info.

Al, please proof read your post. It isn't worded correctly, I don't think. Are you saying that on a 1060 whp EVO our 3.5" exhaust flows as well as an open exhaust? If so that's pretty impressive but makes sense. I tested the 3.5" vs our 3" on my RS at 700 whp and gained absolutely nothing.
VERY nice hp curve Al! Sometimes, I think, that too much emphasis is put on a PEAK number and not nearly enough on HOW the curve looks. For maximum performance, the curve is more important than any SINGLE number. That's why Hondas can make a big peak number, but lose to a lesser horsepower car. I'll take a better curve anyday, over a better peak number but lower curve. Keep up the good work.

Hours were spent on the dyno to dial it in 100%
It is only through Buschur's innovation in making literally bullet proof engines that the idea of fine tuning a 1,000 whp Evo is even thnkable - in the past when I started to make big power I would have to just head to the track quickly before it blew up. Now with Buschur engines 1,000 whp is no problem.
I ask that anyone looking at my dyno sheet take a careful look at the shape of the curve and the way the car pulls clean and smooth to red line
Al
Thats the 1st thing i noticed AL.. Mine is the same way, while i didnt make 1000+, when i made 843 my curve was broad and smooth.. Buschur Motors FTMFW!!!
I was back on the dyno again tonight for some more pulls - another video to come
The car would not make any more power with the exhuast on the car
Since all the events I plan to run in the next few months require an exhaust I am up against it for the time being
Time to take to the track and see how it runs

Curve looks great AL should be a blast getting her down the track. Makes it allot easier to drive thats for sure. We are working on a few tricks to get my spool up which i think we can gain 1000rpms more in spool. The one thing i do love is my turbo just keeps above 1000 hp past 10,000rpms no problems. Which means nice mph. If needs be ill use a 75 shot to get her going
I cant wait to see how both of us do
