I don't feel that the power FC or the custom intake is hindering his current HP/TQ readings.

What I think the cause of his low HP reading here is his TUNE.
Either his tuner put him on a very conservative tune or just doesn't know what he was doing.
If you still want your current mods to stay then find a known reputable Power FC tuner.
But if you feel that your uneasy with your set-up. Then go the route these guys are advising.

Read current/past tuning threads ( SEARCH ) . Get a hold of a tuner you feel that will help you on your problem and just go from there.

Good Luck !

I don't think they have really produced any fast evos.
Or to say, I haven't heard of any or seen times, etc.
They have tuned a few others though.

Seems like they may have general tuning knowledge, but not much knowledge specific to the Evo.

that looks a lot like a ractive intake too though. I think that if i were u i would also just sell the Power FC and get a fuel pump and a flash. I know it sucks going backwards and all, but i think it will be for the better.

Ok, so heres something me and my friends cant figure out.
I just got a perrin fuel rail, PTE 780cc injectors and a walbro 255lph fuel pump.
I got it tuned on an AWD dyno. the same one as before. but now the boost is at 18 psi, they said for safety reasons. It should be putting ok numbers, but using the same dyno, it is 10 less than stock in whp and 30 less in tq. Does anyone have any help?

Yes, we tried to help you but you wouldn't listen. Why in the WORLD would you install all those crazy fuel mods only to run less than stock boost?

You really need to start over, get rid of all that junk, and put on some basic mods. Then, you will be fast like the rest of us.

thanks for the help.
that actually might be worth a try
With your stage one that gets 300whp, what is the boost?

Let me know if you need specific help along the way. I hate to see people waste money and not be happy. My focus is to help people go fast for the least money possible...
