TTP Tuned Pumpgas 93 61mm 528whp Single Scroll ETS Kit!
Our buddy Yousef arranged for his cousin's Evo X to be sent to our facility for Kelford Cams 214-B as well as springs and retainers for his recently put together Evo X GSR. Unhappy with the work he received elsewhere and the month long ordeal getting the car built he contacted us to get the car looked over. Yousef is from a family of racers whom all drive high performance automobiles and his goal was to meet or exceed the performance offered by some of his other family of Supras, Mercedes AMG's and the like.
Upon receiving back his car from another shop, he was dissappointed with the performance of the vehicle per dollar spent. Furthermore there were some serious issues with the mechanical aspects of the car including brake line leaks, clutch pedal droppage, bolts falling out of the downpipe and exhaust manifold, the works. Needless to say any high performance vehicle without brakes is a serious issues that puts lives at stake.
Along with replacing missing bolts from the turbo kit, and fixing other areas of prior workmanship, Yousef had us install the Kelford 214B high lift cams for the Evo X. Along with higher lift cams comes the need for springs and retainers. He chose the Kelford matching beehive springs for this install. In short time we had them installed, performed the boost leak test he requested and moved onto the exhaust.
The exhaust was very loud and the customer had been pulled over a number of times for it so we opted to fabricate an additional resonator to cancel out some more of the sound. The results were a much more refined exhaust note, less likely to draw unwanted attention.
Lastly we actually had a few extra moments before an appointment that day so we did baseline the car as the customer complained that it was very slow. Before we stuck our foot in our mouth, we thought it be best to find out where we stand so we can address any issues up front. What we found was shocking. The baseline on the car was 348whp without touching a thing. An overview of the mapping indicated stock MIVEC mapping , 10.3 actual AFR measured on the wideband, misfiring on top, as well as what appeared to be a timing map used for an Evo 8-9 longer rod ratio motor.
In the end once the cams were in, the testing was done and the car was tuned properly, the power jumped to 528whp at 24-25psi with the only thing holding the car back being the walbro fuel pump was out of flow.
We plan on using a twin pump system in the future and turning up the wick. ETS turbo kit performed great.

Great Review! What the customer say after driving the car? I bet it feels like a new animal! Can't argue with an extra 200whp. These cars amaze me more and more... Can't wait for the results with the twin pump setup. What size injectors?

Nice Job, graph looks great but why was the pull aborted at the stock rev-limit (7,600rpm)?
Was the car out of fuel exactly at that point?
It was clearly on It's way to making more power. ( Would of liked to see 9,000rpm! )
I am sure the customer had a big smile like this: !

Yes the car continues to make power at upper rpms. The fuel flow would be insufficient taking the car further without a 2nd pump. The customer had a trip planned out of state and did not have the time to get the 2nd pump in. We did however complete all of what was asked of us in a day, not a month.

The last shop to work on the car put braided brake lines zip tied to the coilovers and it cracked the lines as soon as they started to travel. The brakes and clutch cylinders share the same reservoir. To this date the customer is unable to get all the air out of the brake lines after flushing them five times. Be careful who you let work on your car people.
