You must have had your P2 adjusted then to hold a higher boost, correct? Or was it doing this the entire time?

Yeah they can adjust it to run whatever boost you want...Ive even heard of a flash that the boost increases as rpms rise But yeah 21-22 psi is perfect IMO...Well until I get their water injection then I'll have them reflash it for whatever boost they think it can handle.

Also one last question, did you have your car dyno'd before/after with all your mods? If so, what were your #'s...just curious...

Thanks for responding to all my questions. I had a Buschur Stage 2 with hks 264 cams on my 2005 MR before I got rid of it for the GSR for the 0%, so I am highly considering WORKS for the next route to try someone new out.

haha, no problem man...I dont have any dyno #'s sorry. I live near Modesto, so there isnt anyone near me

As for going with WORKS, I dont know if you have talked to them yet or not, but I know I will never go anywhere else. Thier customer service and parts are top notch. When they say they stand by their parts, believe me they really do, if you have any issues they make you a top priority and dont put you on the back burner. Good luck with whatever you choose, but its always nice having a tuning shop that is local (or somewhat local...2 hr drive each way for me) but its worth it

Thanks again for all the information. I figure WORKS is the way to go this time, I like the customer service I have received so far in relation to some of my other dealings.

I figure I will give them a try and hopefully I will be just as happy as everyone else is on here with the service and quality and performance.

Thanks again.

I have beat our Z06 1/4 mile by a couple cars, I beat my buddys Mach 1 on drag radials, my buddys STi that runs 12's etc...If I had to guess, which I know your not looking for but I would say my car is probably capable or running low 12's judging by the cars that I beat. Once WORKS comes out with the water injection and I can raise the boost I can easily see high 11's

Anyways sorry I dont have a timeslip, but when the weather gets better and tracks open I'll try to get one.
Get to the track and find out.BTW What does ur buddies STI run. High 12s i guess.
Low 12s on 91 oct is not the norm for an Evo with 340ish HP. 340 whp yes but 290 whp =mid- high 12s.

I agree, its not the norm...But I know its not high 12's for sure. When I ran my buddys Stang, he runs 13.1-13.3 off the juice and seriously I was like is he trying...I think I put 7-8 cars on him by mid 4th. My buddys Mach ran a 13.2 @107 (exhaust and DR's) and from a 2nd gear roll, I put 3-4 cars on him easily, he was like wtf...He couldnt believe I pulled him that easily from a roll. Before cams we were pretty even with him edging me out.

As I mentioned before, out Z06 is a pretty good race for my car, 1/4 mile I can beat it by a few cars and from a roll from 2nd gear I hang with it through 4th gear then it pulls, but if you know Z06's you know they only get faster as speeds increase

Again, i dont think its normal, but my Evo seems to be a bit quicker than other ones I have encountered. Or im just a better driver..who knows..I'll get a slip as soon as I can though, Id like to know for myself..

Haha...if it even matters I used to play around with my gtech and I managed a 13.3 at 105 bone stock, and it was always pretty consistent. I managed a 14.0 at 101 in our S2K which is about what they run, so who knows BTW my gtech is broken or else I'd do it now.

Well WORKS says 29HP/29ft. lbs. with their cams, so that's pretty dang good in my book!

I think the 21-22 PSI is helping you get another 20-25HP also which is a BIG help.

might have a strong Evo. With my p2 I think i did 105 mph on the GTECH but u have to minus 3 mile per hour because trapspeeds at the track are measured differently. With a slippin clutch i was only ably to get a mid 13 at best on my GTECH.

Yeah I guess we'll find out soon...

Yeah 29hp and TQ on the cams is pretty nice, I know the day I got them I couldnt believe the difference, its was like a new car. Again, I am totally satisfied with WORKS.

I made 289 WHP and 285 Ftlbs with just my turbo back exhaust and reflash. since then i have added the cams, a fuel pump, and works o2 housing. I have not had the chance to get it dynoed since the new mods.
