Thanks for the offer Unfortunately, I don't have an OpenPort2 yet. I had meant to order one a few months ago, but never got around to it.

I agree, it seemed to be a great turnout. I just love how Wakeman shuts its main street down for the event. It sure was hot out there.

I bet there are tons of fast cars tomorrow but hopefully the weather stays dry and cars stay in tact. So many cars have large turbos these days. I wonder what the big number on the dyno was.

Please do post your pics...I didn't take any pics since my camera suck. There was an interesting blue rwd 1g with a monster turbo and another smaller turbo tucked down below.

I am back in Brunswick (about 45 minutes East) but my hometown friends and I plan on driving out around 8:30am. We will be together with a black 1g, red conquest, and my graphite 9. See you there!

Ill get the pics up as soon as I can. I forgot my cable to load them to my laptop so it will have to wait until I get home Sunday.

The turn out was great. We got there at 10 so I got a decent spot by the road. By the time we left at 1:30 there wasnt a place to park 1/4 mile each way from the shop.

Ill be racing the bracket class. Come say hi! White evo with bronze 5zigens and my RLPerformance sticker on the back windows. Michigan license plate with GAM3OVR.

I am still working on the tune, but so far the car is running extremely well. I can certainly feel the difference. Once I get the AFR set where I like it, I will tune it for some more power. As it is now, I am running 29psi of boost. It is hitting full boost by 3800 rpm. Spinning the tires is easy now.

A/F's

Hey, what A/F's are you guys running here? I just wired up my innovate wideband and am using accessport stage 2 with AMS intake, and am hitting around 11.5 during a 3rd gear pull. I'm not getting any knock but just wondering what you guys are shooting for on 93 octane. I was stationed in Utah and could only get 91 octane with my old Evo VIII and anything leaner than 11.1 I was getting knock. I know altitude (4700ft) and crapy gas was the reason. Just getting used to 93 octane and low altitude. Thanks...

11.5 is PERFECT for a safe 93 octane tune. You can go a smidgen leaner, but it isn't recommended.

Wow... cool. Not bad for an off the shelf map. I always heard the accessport maps were kinda rich so I was expecting 10.9-11.2ish... I do have AMS upper IC piping thats not on the cobb map, maybe that made me a little leaner?

The upper pipe should have no effect on the AFR. Things like big front mounts, intakes going to the turbo, cams, turbos, exhausts, and boost all affect the AFR.
