I've put down faster times than Num...and I'm still on a stock turbo.


...and I'll still never understand why people try to get personal bests running pump gas, unless you wanna brag about pump gas tunes. To hell with Torco.

Get race gas, crank up the boost, and stretch out the timing and fuel as much as you can...seems to work for me.

Jasper- if we can get a tuner here next year speed density FTW. I know your previous tuner didn't believe in it and thought it was bs...... Hahaha

Not worried about the Kelfords snapping, I've got the new design. Just want to go bigger that's all.

As for pump gas or race gas, I just don't feel like draining the tank to run race gas. Just as well since we all know I'm afraid of the track and never go.

you daily drive your Evo, right? There's no "draining the tank." It's driving around til empty and then putting in the race gas.

Lol. Symantics.

If wanted to run race gas and chase PB I would buy a turbo that's better suited for high boost and not be concerned about spool and transient response.

Yeah Vic, should have had him do my evo earlier, instead of the long *** wait i had to deal with. He does my buddies GG 9 as well, so i'm not worried at all. Homie hookup.

I'm a little iffy on the SD right now. If Mellon comes up i'll just have him do my MAF setup like his. He put down 700hp even on a dyno a few months back. So i know for a fact i'm no where near "maxxed" like i was told, lol.

Haven't been keeping up w/evo stuff as much, never knew Kelford came out w/a new design. May have to look into those as well. Might be my 3rd set of cams, haha.

Honestly, I think the results wouldn't be worth all the time and money setting a trip for him to come up. The only people that would really benefit from him would be the bigger setup guys (Evan and Jasper). The rest of us stock turbo guys could get away with an email tune or a local tuner hacking away...

Stupid ****ing 90 octane.
