The only differences I am sure about was the upgraded IC, IC pipes, tubular manifold and XEDE/XEDEflash combo (Henry had the XFlash). Both ran on pump gas.
Perhaps those with a better memory could jump in...

The XEDE also offers a power advantage over a reflash due to its ability to tune in 1/10th of a degree increments instead of 1 degree increments. For a car that only runs single digit amounts of advance under boost most of the time, being able to sneak a bit more advance in there helps power significantly. It also means that I don't have to detune the snot out of it when bumping against the knock threshold.
"Upgraded" IC pipes, from what I've seen from tests at our shop, don't offer much, if any, repeatable gains during controlled testing. Neither does upgraded injectors just as long as the stockers can still provide enough fuel.

Shiv

I had to make a few changes to the posts in this thread guys.
All facts remain the same. But the names of the innocent have been altered to protect their identities.

Well my name's Henry and I'm a torque-a-holic too but not ready to kiss my whole warranty goodbye yet. Only got about 5.5k miles on the odometer. Already used the warranty 3 times and the problems had nothing to do w/ any modifications to the car, YMMV.

Nice thread, for the guys running 272/272 cams and/or Shiv, what cam timming if any are you using?
It looks like it was pretty cool day, if you turn on the SAE correction how badly does it ding these numbers?
That STI low end torque is really nice, for driving around town I'll bet it feel great. It's like the entire TQ/HP curve is just shifted down about 600-800 RPM compared to the EVO. I guess a smaller turbo on the EVO would have a similiar effect, but would you want too?
