Hey Guys,

I'm going Wednesday to Topspeed in Atlanta to get my VIII tuned (re-flash).
I've added 3" TBE, a cone style filter, SAVC-R, Racemax 272 cams, ARP Headstuds, Walbro 255. I think that's everything.
I plan on doing a boost leak test, oil change, and new plugs this weekend to make sure everything is in good shape. I was wondering if you guys could maybe throw up some ideas of things to go over and check before driving 5 hrs to get tuned. I don't want to waste their time and my money down there doing stuff that I should have done at home. Thanks for the help guys!

 

Racemax cams?? What in the hayul is that? Hope they perform like the other proven cams on the market (HKS, GSC, Comp, etc).

Do the things you already have planned before you go down there, and you should be fine. Fix whatever leaks you find - it's likely you'll find some small ones.

 

Maybe get a boost controller before you go.

 

LOL got one man,.............that's what the SAVC-R is.

 

Sup foo. Was wondering when you are going to get stuff done to that thing.

Never heard of Racemax Cams....where did you get them or through what company.

You better know who this is !!!

 

Ah...just googled it. put up a dyno sheet so we all can see your gains

Racemax 272 cams are from XS-Engineering. They are OK cams. I like JUN better .

 

Sounds like you got it covered, unless you want more parts

 

You forgot to buy a larger turbo!

 

I always want more parts and I did forget to buy a larger turbo as well, the problem there is that someone forgot to give me all that money. LOL I got the cams from XS, not a bad price on them either. We'll see how they do. If they don't work out, it's not like i can't pull them and order some new ones

Q, glad to see your not dead man. When you coming back down this way for a visit? I hope that VDM Evo of yours is still running good. LOL

 

Make sure you remove the plastic panel underneath the engine bay in case you blow off a hose, they need to strap your car down to a point that's covered, etc.

I see no LICP on that list. Helps with spool up!
