BC 0131 Stage 2 Cam Testing=Good Gains!
He is running 27/28 psi when we tuned him on our dyno. That is in 4th gear with an acceptable load value we use on our dyno to simulate a street tuned pull. I am sure he will spike slightly more like 29/30ish psi on a cold winter night in 4th gear on the street.
The 26psi jimmy is seeing is most likely 1st/2nd/3rd after a rolling start from 1st gear.
Jimmy is excited his car has got the power and sound he has been looking for

I'm goign according to what my tuner charlie told me he said you made this power 1 pound less then last dyno which was 27psi....we did one pull that was a guesstimate of 32 say because my gauge didnt go up to that. Car wasnt safe due to some knock obviously. No need to lie my car runs on the street and wouldn't mind running anyone who thinks different 
Murlo we get your point no 10hp isnt crazy but I as the owner feel my car is night and day up top! Car pulls so much harder and yes it was worth the install because cams are always needed in the equation No miracle gas here just some good fine tunning! I take it your saying your car is not tuned well? That run I did was like on the very last pull car is hot as hell by then new fmic on order.....stock turbo is good for the street once u add meth or e85..I know people with fp reds that arent even happy saying stock turbo pulled better I dunno maybe they lying

Power is all perception, one person's fast car is another person's Daily Driver.
My car is fast and many people think I am crazy (friends) that I think my car is boring, but when you drive 60 miles a day boosting a bunch, you get bored and want more, its like a drug, lol.
I was happy with my car, still am, pulls amazing, but it is time for me to make some big power, sick of losing to the new z06's and zr1's around here

I dunno my gauge says 26....to redline in 4th. When I asked charlie he said 26 doesnt matter anyway car feels great and a/f is 11.6 no knock. I can make a video of my gauge if anyone likes lol No one is fighting here just explaining ourselves...we just some honest people getting our point out. When I dynod it was in the 40 degree area so it was pretty cold.

zr1 prolly but z06's I think I should have after tax time, maybe even zr1's! My FPred is probably going up for sale (wink wink)
I will let you know and be sure to ask you if I decide to sell. I think the Red is a great turbo (that's why I bought it) but i might be going bigger, waiting on a response from a vendor or two.
Ps. It's got the new compressor cover too, no more surging ftw!
Edit: Sorry if this got off topic, I know I am talking to the owner of the car but DG feel free to let me know if you need any removed, sorry again guys. Just remembered it wasn't Jimmy's thread technically.

Thanks Luke! I think It's time for cams
Hah, thanks...I can hold my own at 5'7 175....
Without being interrupted I can get this job done without head studs in 2 hours. Head studs adds an hour and can take even longer if you don't have special tools. It takes me 4 hours on a normal day with the phone ringing, etc etc...

I can get you good deals also let me know which turbo and price and maybe it will be better. Yea you need to run alot of boost for the red and meth or e85...I am looking for a turbo I can run good numbers on pump gas...35r fits that. Atp has a 35r that I am thinking about also it's a bolton piece.

Besides, I would love to see how these cams perform on a stock appearing turbo such as the red before jumping to a 35r or equivalent turbo.I can get you good deals also let me know which turbo and price and maybe it will be better.
