I need help!
Hey guys need help!!....ok I have had two evo's the first one got totaled and its mods were only the works rally p1 flash witch is done throught the mail so they actually never see the car they only tune the ecu. My best 1/4 mile run was 13.2 @ 104.9 witch was really impressive considering I didnt have anything else done to the car not even an intake or exhaust. My second evo witch I currently own ran a 13.6 @ 101.7mph bone stock. Once again not bad. I recently Went and installed an HKS catback RMR testpipe HKS 264 cams intake and exhaust Hallmans MBC Wallbro 255 fuel pump Greddy BOV and a K+N intake. They installed it and I dynoed at 312WHP and 314TQ Witch is soo nasty I loved it. I went to the tracks yesterday to test my new baby out! I was dissapointed! My car after 4 runs with all good launches and perfect driving im talking 1.8-1.86 60 foots with a stock clutch...the best I ran was a 12.9 @ 105.66!....there is something wrong if im not mistaken any evo with my mods should be opening up 110-112MPH at the end of the 1/4 mile!....please help me what could be the problem and any tuners around boston that want to see my car and tune it please help me!...I talked to the person that tuned my car wich is very popular and they said that sounds about right!...ummm i dont think so...I dont want to give any names of who tuned it because i respect every tuner and dont want them to lose business. Ok please help guys Thanxs

Lack of a bigger downpipe is choking your cams and turbo, and according to your list you have no fuel control? Those two things will do a lot to raise you trap speed with those mods. FWIW, I have a lightly tuned emanage, turbo-back, MBC, and an air filter and I ran 12.9@106. Somethings not right with your setup, but I don't think you'll see 110mph traps either.

not only might your trap speed be slow, but alot of the factor to is the outside temprature. maybe it was a little warm that day. try racing on a cooler day or towards the evening.

Quick question, but what are you using for ignition timing and fuel management? If you're still running off a flash designed for a lower powered car that would limit your performance.

i also don't think that dyno's are very accurate. i am not saying that your car didn't max out at 312 whp. just because on the track you will have different things slowing you down,
i.e. head wind, friction,abiant air pressure,temprature,uneven roads. so when you have all of these factors i believe that you are going to geat a more accurate reading.
think it over and let me know what you think
