    We were supposed to tune Dontcallitawrxs car yesterday but we hit a snafu with the software, so I"ve got an AP2 on the way for him to use until we get the new tactrix cable and def file. Hopefully we will see similar results.

    Seems like a turbo and intercooler would get that thang right into 300. Not too shabby!

    What the duece is up with the crazy torque numbers???? I know its a 2.5 litre now, but your telling me an 08' wrx has more torque than an 06' STI??? The horsepower seems about right, my bugeye had 232whp/237tq at stage 2.. but that torque is just nuts!

    yeah...but al from dynoflash tuned that so it will probably blow up next week...


    23lbs of boost from the VF40? That has gotta be outside the efficiency of the turbo...

    :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

    Tomorrow dude, tomorrow it'll blow up. Dont forget his dyno readings are always higher. His 500whp/500wtq is really 400/400.

    23 on a VF40? Thats blowing nothing but hot air. That thing is out of range at around 18.

    My screen name gets too much attention. Sheesh.

    Anyway, true that it was definitely outside the range of that setup, but a slightly larger turbo probably would have done the trick. That setup probably still could have made 360tq easily....I would guess.

    And that was a pretty power hungry customer's car, apparently....so they're not trying to blow it up. They already did that with their shop's 08 sti. :rofl: I mean, I guess someone's gotta do it to see what these new cars are capable of. I heard them say in the video that the wrxs owner was ready for an FP Green already. I mean come on.

    Bro.

    Still, I maintain those numbers are fucking impressive.

    "Still, I maintain those numbers are fucking impressive". I agree, some potential in these cars which is refreshing. I will interested in seeing your numbers once you are tuned!
