Great numbers for 21psi. I had a 2.3 (self built) with a gt3076r, and on DDL i was in the 460 on pump 93 at 33 peak 30 taper psi. LOVED IT!!!

Also, if TooMuchBoost gets successfully tuned through email, I may consider doing it too. I originally thought that wasn't a good idea for more extreme setups, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

the output cable on the end of the lc-1 wb02 cable is serial...your laptop is likely usb, hence the need for the serail to usb adapter cable. sorry for the confusion

I love tuning "extreme" setups...it doesn't matter whether it's local or remote, the process is exactly the same.

oh yeah, forgot about the LC-1.

Can you PM me pricing for a tune on 91 and E85 with ECU controlled boost and map switching? Thanks.

Congrats on the build. Although your HP numbers aren't what you want them to be yet, have you noticed a difference in your torque?

Congrats on the build and thank you for running our engine!

The tuner you are using appears to not be up on the latest stock ECU modifications. The knock can be dialed out. I'd be interested to see the actual tune though as our shortblocks are generally very quiet and I find it hard to believe you have false knock. I could be wrong...

The stock ECU is capable of big power and I wouldn't have said that just few months ago.

The AEM EMS in the right hands is excellent, not sure who you are planning on having that tuned if you go that route.

I agree with most of these guys and think if you get the stock ECU tuned by the right person you will be happy.
