DTM is the shiznit!

I want to thank Nick and the crew from DTM for hooking me up with a great tune for my 05 EVO VIII. I went in not expecting much, but the crew performed their magic and the car put down 327 hp and an impressive 331 ft-lbs of tq on a mustang dyno on a very safe and boost hampered tune. The car would have put down better numbers, however the boost controller that I have did not perform as advertised. The tune made a night and day difference on overall performance. I'm a DTM customer for life!

Take it easy on me because this is my first posting and my wife just kicked me in my surgically repaired knee. Mods are listed below:

GSC EVO VIII S1 cams
? boost controller (Nick knows what I am talking about)
JDM MR blow off valve
Injen intake with upper intercooler pipe
ETS 3" intercooler
Walbro fuel pump
3" down pipe
Ultimate racing test pipe
3" catback
Aquamist HFS-1
Nisei lower intercooler pipe

Another well tuned Evo from DTM, just goes to show what a great tuner and great shop team can do! I got my 05 Evo "mildly" tuned while I was there for Dyno Day a few weeks ago. Let me tell you this shop, team, and facility are top notch! I put down 308awhp with out meth on the stock turbo and the mods listed in my signature. Nick was able to get a knock free tune at about 22.5-23 psi even though my stock DV was still in place! Thanks again guys! To the OP, you have made a great choice with DTM as your shop, I promise you won't be disappointed! Good numbers and enjoy the ride!

Josh

Congrats! Nice numbers for the mods.

What's the brand of your boost controller, downpipe and catback?

Was the Aquamist turned on?

And shiznit? Can we get some shizzle or other cool words worked into the thread somehow?
