Greg....your boost is petty conservative even for an 05 turbo. You can easily get more out of it. What kind of timing are you seeing at peak torque?

No idea Paul. That turbo runs out of power at 25 psi. We were just under 22 psi according to the chart he printed out. The power that 3 psi will generate at that level of boost is not worth running the car on the ragged edge. I'm very happy with the tune.

I would be curious to see the log of the pull. It just does not sound right. I put down 320 on a dyanpac dyno with very few mods on a stock 8 turbo. You should easily be able to get closer to 350 with cams and all you have done.

1 - A Dynapac is not a Mustang Dyno
2 - There is no log, we tuned on the dyno
3 - Re-read my mod list, no cams.
mod list: '05 turbo, ebay o2, 3" t-back with no cat, hard pipes, 660cc injectors, and a boost controller
4 - Did I leave anything on the table? Not enough to worry about. Every Evo 8 with similar mods puts down 300awhp (on a MD). That's what I was expecting, that's what Keith told me to expect, and that's what I got.
5 - Surely you know comparing dyno numbers from different dynos, on different cars, with different mods, under different atmospheric conditions is pointless, right?

Yes Greg....I know comparing dynos is crazy.

Sorry for trying to work toward getting you more power.....I won't do any more. Sheesh !

300+hp on a Mustang Dyno with minimal mods on an Evo 8 is VERY good. I think mine with basically the same mods but with cams and fmic put down less than that on Buschurs Mustang dyno.
I think mine probably has more left on the table
Btw, I got a new front bumper cover, lip, undertray put on along with a scratch on my back bumper fixed and the paint chips behind back door fixed. Looks good as new
I got a Beatrush undertray instead of the stock one. That thing is even nicer than I expected.

I agree that 300 is awesome with such minimal mods. Nuf said.

Eli....Post some pics of that hot rod of yours. I want to see those forgelines on it.

We all know buschur's dyno always reads low. That's how they roll.

I see Eli all the time now that I am in A town and he is driving his car. Sounds good and the wheels look great. For some reason I always see you turning onto Mt Carmel Tobasco from Old 74. And I am always in the Fucus or the Wifey's Mazda3.

Anybody else see the black X running around with bronze wheels near the Montgomery area? Looks lowered with a nice offset on some wide wheels. I always see him on Kemper down towards Montgomery, but he is always going the opposite direction. Anyway the car looks great.

That's funny. I saw you the other day in the Z06 on Beechmont somewhere near Home Depot..but we were in my wifes Edge It looked great. I think thats the first time I'd seen it. I still contemplate getting a Z06 every now and then
Yeah I'm always on Old 74 and Mt Carmel Tobasco in my car...because I usually only drive it to the gym (Urban Active in Eastgate)...and I live just off Mt Carmel Tobasco.
I'll get some pics up here in a little bit. For some reason it never looks as aggressive or good in the pics though.

I scalp tickets at every Reds game, and tonight I saw more evos than I've seen in 9 months. There were 4 downtown, plus mine. A blue VIII, a black IX, an Apex Silver MR w/ cf lip, and another Silver One I saw from further away.

dang.
