I think 13-14 is the lowest it will go. So that will be my normal low boost setting haha. It pulls sooo hard. Sorry im rambling... dat adrenaline doe haha


Sounds like you're making decent power. What does it make on a dyno?

If you're giving out rides...count me in as well :)

Yeah so my sea level tune was completely off as I drove the 7 up in elevation here. I had to stop and add fuel to cruising cells just to make it home. time to start over and retune. It already feels soooo much slower. :( definitely disapointing It would just destroy the tires in first and break loose in 2nd. Now not so much. I guess I should just stop messing around and go 15 psi

If you need someone to help and hold a computer or something let me know. I wanted to see how the car rides...so I could easily help you with your tune.

We pull more vacuum here, so you are probably hitting lower load cells. you map should be good except for idle/low load cells.

Which Koyo is it? I'm assuming it's the stock replacement? I think a couple people are looking for one IIRC. If I was there and depending on price, I'd think about getting it because I want to start making them in VMIC configuration and make it with a condenser so you can still use AC and have it all ducted.

N-FLOW, that's the name I was trying to remember haha. So is this one not suitable for a VMIC swap/modification?

Oh I know you can modify the N-flow into a V mount, I'm just wondering why you didn't do it lol.

Sooo, I was doing some tuning finally and had a little snag... Looks like its time to build a real oil catch catch can/vent system instead of my ghetto rigged crank case vent. Oil! OIL EVERYWHERE! haha

Holy crap lol. I still need to ride in your car too to see how I like the turbo. Although I compared Bobby's to mine and took a pic. It's RIDICULOUS. I can't believe how much bigger the 8374 is than the 7670. I'd have to do an entirely new manifold and I'm afraid it wouldn't have as short of runners. I need to see yours in person too. I saw your car on base the other day when I went to hangar 123 but I didn't think to get ahold of you to see if I could see the setup.

I'm getting some ignition break up too. So I need to pick up some of those AEM Coils and build a catch can system. Anyone good with making hardlines? I want a hardline coming from the rear turbo oil train to the catch can.
