Lets make it so...
I was thinking oil temp and pressure gauges and somethings KillerB...
To go with the other stuff.
Already got a low boost tune :mrgreen:

I think I'd still rather use my own, just in case I break your car...

I've replaced my block with a brand new STI short block with killer B bits and 11mm oil pump, Tomei HG and ARP studs for the added reliability. Conservatively tuned to 253kw at the wheels on E85.

....then I got hit by a postie truck at the post office, so they're paying for a brand new front end and full car respray to colour match.


Hey Owen,

Sorry to hear about the unfortunate dust up with the postie truck there. There's nothing worse than seeing anyone's ride get involved in an accident.

Great result on the dyno there! Good to see that you are happy with the car! Hopefully the repairs don't take too long!

Hey is Revzone a hub dyno still or did they replace it?

Hey Brian,

It's a dynapack hub dyno, with accurate weight figures entered before power runs to minimise that "happiness" hub dynos tend to get.

Here's a pic of my graph for anybody interested. 18psi on sport #

Pretty colours!

Glad you're happy with the result. Get Justin to have a word to that postie driver! It really sucks to see something like that happen. :(

Brian I've already got a friend inside Innovation Group helping me speed up the process.

Brandon, I'm going to leave it relatively low boost until coilover development is finished. There will be a number of people (including me) trashing the car during that period. I'll most likely dial up the boost when it's ready for the time attack.
