Okay so the car got tuned today. I dont have numbers because the car had so many issues, so we couldnt make it to steves dyno. On my way up to fort worth friday night, the car was hella sluggish, couldnt boost past 12lbs. Get to Kevins at 930 this morning to start trouble shooting. Ended up draining the entire fuel tank to find I had bad fuel. Refilled, solved alot of problems. This was a couple hours after we trouble shot other things, such as changing out boost controllers and such since the ecu was not reading boost. Car still wasnt running the way it should have been, found out my hfc was totally shot. Stay away from Perrin, as this was not the first time Evo Dynamics has seen these cats to fail. We turned it into a test pipe, solved that problem. Then we found a boost leak. Then the tuning began and now the car feels hella powerful and is a whole new beast. Total of 9 hours of working on the car today.
Over all I appreciate Kevin and Rich's patience as my car was not being very friendly. Next up will be an E85 tune. Oh and I got to ride in a 9 sec evo today, and I have no words to explain the rush lol.

Thanks man. I cant wait to do E85. The car pulls like a beast now, so I can only imagine the power output after the next tune.

Damm man I cant wait till I start modding mine something always comes up everytime i get a little bit of extra change in my pocket. I think Im either gonna go through Mellon or Kevin more towards Kevin wright now since I wanna get my manifold ported but who knows. I think Im gonna go with 93 & E85.

Question? What injector choices our out there for the Evo brand and reliability wise. And when I do upgrade should I upgrade ICP? I want to stay stock turbo and Intercooler for now kinda tight on money. LOL!!

Don't upgrade uicp if u are gonna use a stock flanged bov. For a stock turbo and e85 get the fuel injector clinic 1050cc injectors. I would recommend u get a stock 9 turbo at least or a 10.5 hotside for ur stocker because the 9.8's are garbage and don't hold boost for ****
