Anyone with those numbers care to share their specs? How aggressive was your tune?

With boltons... you kind of hit a blockade at about 350whp until you start upgrading turbo's and cams.

Ivey tuned evo x

yea thats what i figured. Looks like I will aim for 350 w/ just bolt ons. Also I'd like to keep spool as low as possible, pref below or around 2800K.

And I'd also love to know how much boost youre running

Dyno jet 350 whp is much easier than a Dyno Dynamics or Mustang dyno.

Yup... I was referring to a mustang dyno with my previous comment.

All bolt ons, good tune.... around 350.

Upgrade the turbo, cams, injectors... can get over that hump and into the 400's depending on the setup

Using an expendable product like nitrous, meth, race fuel... and you will see higher numbers but its something you have to deal with refilling all the time or only being on at certain times. Not a straight upgrade that improves performance at all times.

I think mine would be right at 350whp on a dynojet.

FMIC, UICP (I also have an LICP), TBE at the least.

Hey SVT please post your before and after power gains when you install your FMIC; there has been a controversy regarding gains or lack thereof from a FMIC >OEM (https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...reflash-3.html). Your results should provide the data necessary to put an end to the issue of power gains from a larger FMIC from an X previously tuned.
I am going to have mine installed soon but will include hard pipes as well which will add 10-15whp from UICP alone. Yours by contrast already has same so power gains will be just from the FMIC; can't wait for the results!

Later, Ken

You should be able to get to your power goal with just bolt ons. Here is a thread on our modifications so far.

I hope that helps. If you have any questions let me know!

Thanks,

Michael

Michael, in the thread above that you posted, you provided various gains as a result of the install of ETS products, e.g., ETS FMIC but W/O a tune. When asked what the gains would be WITH a tune you said, "Yup! - We will have some tuned results up shortly ". Thereafter I noted that you went in other directions. My question is, did you get a chance to do what you said, namely measure the gains from the tune with the previously installed ETS products? If not, could you speculate what gains you would expect from a tune since you also speculated that the A/F was low; I assume tuning would raise the A/F resulting in more gains? Thanks for your response.

Later, Ken
