Thanks! It is all about the right parts and the right tune. You also need to find an honest shop that does honest work. That is what we are all about. It's like a huge family.

You say that you logged with Evoscan, but AFAIK Evoscan only logs Timing and knock properly on the Evo X. How did you log load, IPW, IDC, and LTFT when the CAN locations in Evoscan are wrong? I know they are wrong because I compared them to logs from PCMScan and AP.

I'm a fan of the FP Red and I'm monitoring what and how it performs while I'm deployed. It's good to get on the computer in a dust storm to read that the EVO community is still alive and well. I'm waiting to see how the "revised" FP Red performs. It seems like the FP Red laughs at 27PSI. And then with the 880cc injectors. Would changing to 1000cc injectors give you more ability and room to tune given that this is a daily driver?

FP Red turbos need boost to start. 25+ psi is where this turbo starts making some nice power.
This build is a daily driven car so we need to leave a little room on the table. The customer has a decent commute each day so he may stop at different gas stations from time to time etc....
I would like to state that 411whp on our dyno is much higher on a dynojet. At 26.5 psi, this car is making some serious power. These injectors left for about 80-90% duty cycle so yes, the 1000cc would give some more tuning room.
The main reason we stopped here is because the customer has a stroker kit on the way. This tune is safe and reliable and plenty of power for the next month or so until we pull the motor, build it and then shoot for 30+ psi

great numbers! also a big thumbs up to you and your shop for what seems to be a great, reliable, and trust worthy shop. couple of quick questions if you dont mind.
1. are the only fuel mods needed to run this kind of setup- injectors,FP and fuel rail?
2. with the cams, can you rev higher safely? maybe with some springs and different head studs?
3. kind of an off topic thing, but is it just his exhaust setup or the video cause his car doesnt seem to be that loud. the 9's seem way louder than the X's. sorry i just love a loud exhaust
thanks and a big
to you!

to you!1. Our evo X is making 403whp with only an injector upgrade (800cc) just fine. A fuel pump upgrade is wise and I do recommend it but it is not needed at this power level. Same goes with the fuel rail.
2. No, you can NOT rev higher with just these cams alone. Upgraded valve springs and retainers are needed to "safely" rev the car higher. The cosworth mx1 cams were designed to work with the stock valve-train and stock rev-limit.
3. Some exhausts for sure sound different. We also need to invest in a camera upgrade since it is far from the best! This car is running an ultimate racing o2 eliminator downpipe, hks test pipe, and hks dual exhaust. It is far from the loudest. If you want loud, check out our evo x with buschur exhaust. I believe it is amongst the loudest evo x exhaust we have came across yet. Evo X's are also much deeper than evo 8/9s IMO.
