Finally got the car tuned!

First off, this thing rips. Blitzes my 265s in 1st.

The car made 476/414 on 26psi, tapering to 24. This is with the tuner and I in the vehicle (350lbs).

We kept the boost down and didn't get crazy with it at all. Extremely conservative all the way around. It'll make over 500 on pump if we turned it up. Going to hit a DJ soon, but for now, this thing is extremely responsive, and feels every bit of what the logs were telling us, and spools fast as hell on the street.

KP Tuning did the tune, and he is the man for helping me out over the course of this build.

Alas:

The car has no issues with the PCV removal? I wanted to remove mine and use STM fittings on the valvecover, run them to a sealed catch can that also has a fitting running to the intake so it pulls vacuum. Maybe I'll just run a vented catch can though.

Nope, never had any issues from removing it. I run 2 -10an lines from the vc, one -6an line from the front breather hole, all to a vented catch can with no line to the intake.

Collects moisture as it should and the car still pulls proper vacuum.

Never understood why people go into this crazy catch can science, this way works fine for me and many others.

Yea, I might give it a go with just a vented can and if that does not work I will take the filter off and figure out a way to get it to pull vacuum from the intake. I will just be using the STM fittings since I do not want to drill into the valve cover.
Thanks.
Ohh and don't sell the car

I have a feeling it's going to be a little bit before 'the right person' comes around, so I'll have it for a little while to enjoy the new power at least. My buddy has had his 2.4/25g car off the road for a while and is putting it back on the road this week, so I'm sure I'll be doing some cruising in the mean time!

I only want $18.5K for the car, so someone in the market would be an idiot to pass that up.

I should ask $22k, but I would rather sell the car than sit on it for 6 months, get sick of bs, and then end up taking $18.5k. A hassle free sale means a lot to me, so I'd rather just jump straight to the least I'd take .

Plus, someone could make bank parting this thing out. It even has Ohlins!

DYNOJET NUMBERS

Had a day at the dyno today, and it was a blast!

The car actually exceeded the VD numbers. I was shocked at how well the car did on 93. This runs awesome on the street.

26psi - 482/442
27psi - 494/445
29psi - 499/448

Almost unnoticeable. Extremely responsive for how much power it's making.

Car went to a good home today. It's been a wild past few years with this car, but I can't thank everyone around me enough who helped me get the car where it is today.

It was indeed. It hasn't really sunk in yet that the car is gone. It's a shame I never made it down to cruise.
