Gruppe-s: only shopping for parts
Vishnu: good things
Srm: eh..

Thanks

Andy is outstanding...he will work on your car until it's done right...no worries about him cutting corners. Give him a call tomorrow or swing by their shop.

go to Speed Element or GST, they're by far the best places in norcal for tuning. Excellent customer service and great results. go to www.norcalevo.net and check out the power mods sub forum to see their results!

Thanks for the positive feed back everyone. While I can't promise and specific numbers out of a car due to variance inherent from the factory, I do promise that your car will make the most power it possibly can safely.

My criteria for safety is...

Conservative afr
Consistency between pulls
100% octane rating and zero to minimal knock count on EVOscan.

Even with this criteria as a priority, am I still able to extract near 300 whp on a common bpu EVO on a lot of cars.

It all depends on if your car is capable of it.
