I will be getting tuned in about a month. My car previously put down 430whp and 450trq with an FP Green on Buschur's Dyno. Here are the mods :
Buschur 65mm TB
Buschur ported Intake Manifold
Buschur ported Exhaust Manifold
EPM O2 Dump
1200cc Injectors
Buschur Coil on Plug
Buschur Intake
Buschur Race intercooler
FP Red Ported
Forge Wastegate Actuator
Buschur UICP
Tial Q
SMC Alcohol Injection
GSC 272 Cams
Buschur TBE
Forge MBC
Built Buschur 2.0 Block
AEM EMS

I feel like I am forgetting some stuff lol. Actually I was kind of disapointed when I saw what Trents Evo made on Buschur's dyno and it is a completely built Evo from Buschur. It made 470WHP and 447TRQ with Q16 and 38psi. That is some sick power on their dyno don't get me wrong but with a Green my Evo on their dyno made 430WHP and 450TRQ at 32psi on C16. I guess we will see in the spring.

Hey Guys,

I have been debating whether to go Green or Red. Here is my set-up.

Main engine mods

ETS 3.5
Full Injen Induction Pipes
Walbro 255
HKS 272
TBE 3.0
AEM Cam Gears

Notables:
Stock Injectors
Stock Valvetrain
Stock Block

This car is my DD for now and will not rebuild until after 30,000 more miles. I will only run 93octane. No interest for pump or racegas yet.

I will have a rebuilt 2.0 and valvetrain in about that time but I will stay with 93 unless I make my EVO a project/Race car.

What do you guys think? Thanks.

Hey Shacochis06, do you think I can get a ride sometime? I live about an hour away from Bel Air. Getting tired of waiting for my Red. It has been over 6 weeks since my 9 turbo got to FP. I just want to see how it feels to make the wait more bearable. Lol.

My Red finally came last week I ordered mine in Nov. Just waiting on a gasket then it will all be ready to run hopefully Friday. I havent driven my car since Oct because I melted my clutch to flywheel and decided to sell my turbo and do a tranny rebuild all at once but unfortunitly I had to wait on turbo way longer than expected so Im excited to drive it again especially with the Red!!!

Well I'm def not an expert but from what I know and I have learned you don't need to modify internals but you have to restrict the amount of boost you run. From what others have said 25-27psi max on stock motor and 30+ with head studs. Of course have the correct fuel mods (pump, injectors...)

I would say 880cc injectors or near that. 1000cc are prolly too big but I got them for a killer deal and at the time i wasn't sure what i was doing as far as turbo and motor. And far as numbers I would say 400ish? I made 350 on stock viii turbo & 50/50 meth.
