have you heard of Tuning Technology?

most IX's there go there with full TBE, MBC, drop in filter, and fuel pump and come out boosting 23psi with around 330whp/320wtq on 91 oct pump. just need the fuel pump to do 22-23psi safely.

Tuning Tech is located in southern california.

I got my 9 tuned there, wonderful service btw!

Question, at what temp were those numbers made?

I barely squeeked to 300whp with about 280lb/ft with but at 107deg temps. boost is 1.5bar with no knock counts. Mods are rsr ex mag 3", megan cat res pipe, perrin dp, k&n drop-in, mbc, walbro.

Thats basically the exact numbers I made @23 psi here in Tucson on the Mustang dyno with a dynoflash tune. I generally run 21-22 for daily driving though. Its just too hot here in the summer to risk it with ish gas.

and @ what kinda HP #'s untuned with this setup/track times....
Just for a reference, these are people from Tucson with Evo 9s:

Evo9grl Evo 9 300whp/308tq 12.5@112 at SIR 12.2@Firebird
Guerrillahs Evo 9 around 300whp also 12.5@111 at SIR 12.1@113 @ Firebird
Rob's Evo 9 308 Hp and 327 TQ MD just ran a 12.20@115.6 last night at SIR
Bills Evo 9 310whp plus not ran at the track yet

All these cars had similar mods, some of them had extra LICP and UICP, other had 02 housings etc but more less they are within 10whp on Iaperformance mustang dyno and they all ran 12.2 or better.

That gives you an idea of what numbers you can expect. After seing dozens of SRT-4 at SIR and Firebird and after racing many of them at the track I can affirm and confirm that your Evo 9 would get better times than your older SRT-4 did.

^^ I think I met you once at the track and I congratulated you on that pass. Did you removed the wing on your SRT-4? You are a white dude right ? There are no many SRT-4s that I have seen in blue color and trapping 120 at SIR, it got to be you.
I believe you were running on street tires the day you ran the 12.7@120. Did you had bullet holes stickers on your car?

Please confirm. Thanks!
