long story short, im driving from WI to OH to bucshur to get tuned on the 16th.

when doing so I going to do a fresh oil change, new fresh plugs.

my question is, what should I gap them at? ( im running bp7es )

I plan on ONLY getting tune for pump 93 at about 20-22psi

mods on in sig

thanks a lot guys

 

YOu have an RNR GT35R? Ick. Well, even though it's only 20-22psi, which is extremely low for a GT35R, I think you'll want to get colder plugs than stock. You should be making close to 200whp over stock, so BPR8ES would be the minimum you want to run. BPR7ES would be stock replacements with bolt-ons and 20-22psi, not for a GT35R.

I don't see an ignition amplifier listed, so I'm going to say to start with .026 for the gap at first, but you may need to change it during the tune depending on what happens.

780cc injectors are not enough for a GT35R. 264 cams are not good for a GT35R. 20-22psi is not good for a GT35R and makes no sense on alky. This does not look like a good situation all around. Hopefully, BR can get your car in order.

 

, but how are you getting tuned there? By Al or David? As far as I know Al is not going to the be there until the end of May

 

His sig says AEM EMS - David does the AEM EMS tuning.

 

to be honest. theres nothing really left from the RNR kit, ams did all the installation. the only thing from the RNR kit that im using is a rebuild turbo and rewelded manifold everything else is from AMS since the RNR crap didnt work, nor fit. im going down to BR to get my pump gas tuned ( 93 oct, low boost ) since im not running meth YET. ( I will be in june ) car was orginally tuned FOR meth ( 26 Ibs ), but im not going to right now for a couple different reasons. AMS is the one that suggested the 264's ( im going 272's soon ) as they built the whole car. so thats why I never second quessed anything, they are the evo masters, as is BR. ( im sure you will agree with me there, hopefully )

I just want to get a DECENT tune for the time being, THATS IT. im OFF THE CHARTS rich WOT an cruising ( lower than 10.0 ) an im getting about 13mpg cruising on the hwy.

I would goto AMS but there booked till the end of june, an I cant wait that long!!!

so warrtalon, should I get tuned for meth ( high boost ) an tuned for 93 ( lower boost ) while im there?

 

Ok, that's much better news. I am really not sure why AMS would suggest 264s on a GT35R setup, but if they did, there had to be some good reason.

Yes, I defnitely think you should get tuned for meth while at BR. I don't think you even need a tune for 93 without meth except for reasons of having a fallback when the meth kit isn't working or you're out of meth. I run alky 24/7 and never turn it off except during SCCA autocrosses, during which I use straight race gas.

I still don't think 780s are enough. That's enough for a 20G-LT, but not a GT35R.

 

like I said there the ones that built an tuned the car. so thats why I never questioned or asked them. the cams were installed a little over 2 years ago so maybe the 272's werent out yet? but they will be going with a 2.3 stroker. but do you really think im going to max out the 780's?

but the reason I didnt want to run meth yet was because of funds. ( how much are you going through per tank of gas? ) I was only going to run meth when im going to the track ( high boost ), then run pump ( low boost ) on the street ( to save gas )

this is what my plan was going to be

goto br on the 16th to get a pump low boost tune ( 93 oct, 20-22 psi ) JUST to be tuned for pump an to save on gas since my MPG sucks

then goto AMS at the end of june ( made an appointment ) to get tuned for meth ( seperate map )

reason I am doing that is because of funds till everything is inline again.

so what do you HONESTLY think I should do warrtalon?

how long do you think dave would take per map 1 map being low boost 93 oct 20-22 psi an other being high boost meth 26+ psi

so please help me out here please!

 

I already told you what I honestly think.

But now, after that story, I honestly think you have no business with a car that heavily modified if you have to worry about how much the meth costs. It's only $3/gal, and you would only use 1 gallon every 2-3 weeks if you drive daily. I don't know how you can afford multiple, separate custom AEM EMS tunes if you can't afford 1 gallon of meth every few weeks.

Also, the point of meth is to use it daily. If you only plan to use it at the track, then rip it out and sell it, because then you just would use race gas at the track and make a lot more power with your custom race tune. The point of meth is to use it daily without the cost of race fuel. Not getting tuned for meth and only getting tuned for 20-22psi won't save you on gas. That's all dependent on your foot. If you want to use up less gas, then boost less, but don't force yourself to get no use out of your GT35R by only running 20-22psi. That defeats the purpose of having a GT35R.

Yes, 272s were out 2 years ago. Did you have the car then? Your sig says this is the car's 3rd owner, and since you're a newb making your first posts while having a fairly weird combo of mods, I figured you bought it that way and didn't know what to do. Is that false?

 

kinda false, kinda true. Ive been with the car since day one( first evo in WI ). Ive been there every step of the way with the car ( going to AMS, ) first owner sold it to another buddy of ours first cause I couldnt afford it at the time ( family medical bills ) first owner then bought a denali, then the 2nd buddy sold it to me cause hes getting married. I was the one that called AMS EVERYTIME, Im the one that knows more about cars than the other 2 friends. the first owner was the one with all the money ( grandfather owned a telephone company in the area ) so the first owner did all the mods, second owner drove it for 1.5 months before selling it to me. so in a WAY it has been mine ( installing some small mods, calling AMS, planning it out etc then him paying for it ) thats why I bought such a heavily modded car, because I KNEW the background of it, an knew everything on it.

now that we got that squared away.

the reason about funds, is the fact that I just started a new job/career an I just purchased a house. understand now?

now for just getting tuned for pump now is the fact so I get get better MPG an not running pig F'n rich crusing / WOT. I dont care at the point if im not at the full efficiency of the turbo, because I KNOW this!!! thats why we got meth so we COULD be!!!!!!

I will get 2 maps made at BR then, one for pump low boost, an one pump, meth high boost

again, theres just something that you cant seem to grasp ( not trying to be an *** here ) im just trying to get you to understand my predicament an dilemma.

sorry!

but since you say its only 3$ gal, an id use only 1 gal every few weeks, then ill do that! ( sorry I didnt know I would use that little, an around here its about 6 bux, either way thats irrelevant )

 

Holy ****ing Lies in this post. First off he has no clue that the first owner was till I told him. 2nd I don’t know him from a hole in the ground. 3rd I didn’t get married. I had the car for over 6months not what he said. Man this guy is a compulsive liar to the maxxxxxx. He should get an award. Every forum its a different story with this kid. And come to find out he’s a scammer too. I really wish I had stuck around after I sold the car to him. To see **** like this right away not 3-4 months down the road.

I was the one who was with the car from day one not him. he took my story and used to reflect him. lol what a class act.

 

wow that guy has deep mental problems. why even go on and bullshiiit. he 's so scary i bet he would kill some dude and take over his identity if given the chance

 

I know right.

 

hey domokun , are u going back to an evo?

 

I will be getting a 2007 STi limited in 2 years Right now I just want the gas mileage since I have had 2 wrx's 1 sti and 1 evo in the past year, but total ive had 15 cars and im only 24. Buy and sell is the name of the game my friends.
