I went to meet up with Brian on Monday when he finished up samiBoarder's FD... It's not really all that easy to chill for street tuning sessions like it is with dyno tuning sessions

That FC really threw down the power! It actually made more power than a GTR Skyline did on the shop's dyno!

Yep it did ok. It's got an issue, though. Either the compressor is too small or there's a plumbing problem with the intake piping be it turbo discharge, intercooler outlet, or both.

made 414 whp but was loosing boost at the end. will be changing the intercooler piping to 3 inch.

after the tune the car started slipping tires and clutch big time.

brian what do you think about doing a little pre turbo water injection and cranking the boost?
