Thats a WHP graph. That shop is actually not that far my house, and Ive actually talked to them about dyno rental before. Its known as an accurate dyno with the Honda - Acura turbo guys that K- Tuned mostly do.

Any updates Trent on how the car drives in general? Im interested to see how this pans before I get Matt to MS2 mine.

I actually have the car out today. Took is easy on the way into work this morning. Drives awesome, smooth as silk. I did get into the boost a tad 2nd & 3rd. Pulls like crazy & sounds awesome! A totally different beast to its last setup. St Thomas Dragway opens April 7th ;')

I don't know?

I hope Matt doesn't mind here's the e-mail I received from him...

Another strong point about MT Motorsports (excellent communication!)

Well...

377fwhp. If we had used a dynojet dyno it would be 415-420fwhp.

We had boost control problems all day. Couldn't get anymore than 15psi on the street, Got it up to 18-19psi on the dyno by just disconnecting everything. On the way back from the dyno it went over 20psi. We are going to leave it at 18psi. You have a few issues, the wastegate is missing a plug in one of the ports, there is a fuel delivery /fuel pressure problem at higher boost and most importantly, you have way too much exhaust back pressure.

So, what I would do is drive the car. It is so nice to drive, very smooth. It makes way more power than the tires can deal with.

If you want to make enough power to break the pistons you need:

Fuel Pressure gauge
Fuel pump problem rectified
Wastegate plugs

And most importantly a complete 3" exhaust, or a dump pipe.

Come get it. Drive it. Smile.

The power is awsome... buts its how smooth it is thats the most interesting of all to me. Matt said the same thing about how smooth it is. The fact that the car is tuned so well that it has gobs of HP without huge boost, drives silky smooth, is pretty much a perfect recipe imo.
