how much have you invested in it?

 

Only about 1k.... over 5 months.

Mike W. told me that he has baselined several stock Evo X's on his Dynapack, and they all come in around 240HP on average.

Now my first run without a tune came in at 257HP. Which shows that my mods may have already been doing their thing as bolt-ons to get the car breathing better.

• UICP
• Turbo Inlet Pipe
• Panel Filter
• MF Catback

So with bolt-ons and no tune the car was almost 260HP and still running pig-rich according to the AFR readout.

Mike W. smoothed out, and leaned out the AFR and optimized the tables for my bolt-ons, which then got the car up to 300+HP consistently on every pull.

Sooooo financially speaking..

All of those bolt-ons got me about 15HP for $800
That tune got me about 40HP and TQ, safe AFR and boost levels, and maybe even better MPG (if I can keep my foot out of it) for about half that $$

 

awesome numbers, i cant wait to get tunex by e-spec. i have almost the same mods but with catless dp/tp, intakr and mbc. Im looking to get almost the same number as yours considering that my se is my dd

 

Nice powerband.

 

I beg to differ. I only have a K&N drop in filter and an RRE tune and I got 316whp and 336lbtq on my GSR!! 50+ whp and 72+ lbtq. Gotta love RRE

 

Tune 30+ SST equipped mitsus with access to the proper tables and you will have a different perspective.

 

So are you saying that Mike at RRE doesn't know how to tune SST's ? Gimme a break !! You tuned 30+ SST's and Mike probably tuned the remaining 90+ SST's here in SoCal.

 

No I'm not saying that at all. Mike and I go back over 15+ years knowing each other and are friends.

My statement was not chest thumping.

 

Put a dp and a hi flow cat and you'll easily make 340-ish whp.

Thats about the same output I had with the stock cat on. As soon as I removed that restriction it was party time.

 

So you are running cat-less around LA? Be careful dude.

Do you happen to know if a DP is a no-no?

 

wadup Wes

I'm in 2010 MR-T now.

 

Thats where you are wrong sir.... Ive tuned far more SST Than Mike has......

but i can smell a RRE nut hugger from a mile away so no one will convince you otherwise

 

Fyi: anyone

Mike @ RRE is a great man. I mean no Offense or am in any way insinuating he does not know what he is doing.

He has helped me @ the track several times when i had hardware malfunctions.

K thanks bai

 

Oh shiiii... what up Vic!

 

Nice man. Im thinkin of getting tuned at rre
