Re: Getting Ready for the 3rd tune

Ok well im putting off selling it so I can enjoy it for at least a little while + this site really went down the ******* so when I'm ready ill probably just eBay everything at one time. I thought about it a little more and I dont care Ill stay in debt a little more owell. haha Ill probably just keep it for at least a couple more months. I just freaked out at the thought of a huge debt like what im going to have lol.

Re: Getting Ready for the 3rd tune




It's not the site, it's just that everyone is broke after the summer spending spree on all the mods folks have done.

Re: Getting Ready for the 3rd tune

No seriously, it is the site I've lurked since mid 04 and its activity is way lower now... The socal section used to be so active it was insane, new threads every few minutes almost. Now there is barely 1 or 2 posts per day in there. There aren't as many decent meets anymore, its just went way downhill... I'm sticking around though because this is where I learned everything I know and I like to give back to the community.

Re: Getting Ready for the 3rd tune

Ill see if I can get a trailer lined up. Otherwise Ill just follow you in my car, and we can either run to get parts if we need, or I can just give you a ride home until we figure it out.

Re: Results are in on page 10 @ 17 PSI

From a roll im pretty sure I could already take a stock evo or sti. Its scarry fast... seriously!

We did try for 19 lbs of boost and it started leaning out really quick even after bumping the injector duty way up it diddn't help

Re: Results are in on page 10 @ 17 PSI

Dude, I thought mine was fast at 9 psi and whatever HP I'm making. I can't even imagine 17. This very good to know about the stock pump though. 17 psi and the stocker keeps up without issue. I would think that a daily driven 7-9 psi setup should be just fine with the stocker then.

I also think that running at 17 psi on the stock pump might cause it to wear out faster than it would running at stock fuel levels or more. But at least you found it out where it can hang till!

Re: Results are in on page 10 @ 17 PSI

Ya I wouldn’t expect it to last that long running at 100% but it shows that there is no need for a return fuel system or pump unless you want more then 300 hp. I just added a boost reference to the stock FPR in the tank and everything works perfectly. The best part is that everything is completely hidden.

I sent you the vid. He diddn't save the 280hp run cause it was running out of fuel and wouldn't be reliable.
