Big thanks to everyone, especially Lucas for installing my fuel pump and mbc outside in 30 degree weather.

 

My wife always calls this my car **** so what can I say.

 

My BBBlack IX pulled through nicely with 654hp/547tq. My boost controller is struggling a bit with consistency, a new boost controller is in the works.




AND a smoked oil pump in the process! Good news is I noticed something wrong and pulled over right away. There apparently was no damage to the rest of the engine; crank is undamaged. A new pump and set of rod bearings will get me back up.

For everyone knocking on the 500hp door, seriously consider upgrading your oiling system. AMS oil pan and Kiggly regulator are both going on my car. The 2.4 without oil squirters will suck the pan dry in short order!

Thank You Lucas for the freeway rescue and the super quick turnaround on getting my car back together.

John-

 

I wanted to have a few days of driving before chiming in regarding a number of drivability issues my car had previously.

It had stumbling, poor cold weather drivability and a few gremlins about partial throttle and general harshness.

Most of which Speed Density was supposed to resolve. And now, with the recent updates and re-tune from the magicians at ER I am happy to announce that the problems have been resolved!

Cold weather driving isnt an issue, overall operation is very, very smooth and all the drivability "claims" about SD that made me want it in the first place have all come true! Thank you very much guys!

Side question: We forgot to adjust the idle up a little bit, can you snap a pic of the adjustment screw (BISS?) that needs to be fiddled with? It was so obvious in HondaLand... But not in EvoDominationLand.

 

You are very welcome and I am glad that we got it all straightened out finally. The BISS is the phillips screw in the TB on the firewall side. It will need a stubby screwdriver to get to it under the strut tower bar. I will look for a pic and make the necessary "paint" adjustments. I am on vacation so I am not currently surrounded by Evos

Bit late here. The tune really made a difference. Thanks, Still backfires a bit at low throttle when at 3k as it up shifts to 2k.
Also anyone know how to get a hold of the last person who dyno'ed? He had a Gray 08 GSR.

 

He is a new owner having purchased the car in the last week before the dyno day so I am not sure he is even on EVOm yet. I will see if I cant get some contact info for you.
