Took the car down to www.ISPRacing.com in Maryland to let Brad Brooks work his magic on the car/AEM…
Results speak for themselves (and I believe its a record):
600whp/392wtq on 23.5psi and Sunoco 94 Pump Gas

721whp/486wtq on 33psi falling to 31psi and VP Q16

Rundown of the setup:
Shep-Built 6bolt Ross 9:1/Crowers (engine is 4 years old and has seen its fair share of abuse)
Shearer Long Tube Vband header
REGULAR 35r, Tial Comp Housing, Tial .82 T3 V-Band Housing
Full 3" exhaust with about 20 gay bends in it because my turd is FWD and the exhaust goes over the axle.
Shearer 4" Garrett Intercooler, 2.5" lower, 3" upper pipe
Stock NT 60mm TB
15yr old designed HKS 272’s
Stock cam gears
Forrester “street” ported head with o-rings from Shep
Forrester boat anchor intake
A1 Head Studs
AEM EMS with 24tooth trigger disc. www.triggerdisc.com
No idea where all the power comes from on such little boost, but something works.
During the first few pulls of the day on pump gas, we gained 40whp (540whp to 580whp or so) by adding Victors/Brads 24-tooth triggerdisc and re-syncing timing. Car also had about 15 minutes of cool down. Something worked there too.
We could have made more on pump gas, but we couldn’t raise the boost past 24psi on pump gas. We finally figured it out once the race gas map was added, but I was happy with 600whp. 33psi falling to 31psi is all the turbo would make up top.
There’s quite a bit “left to do” on this setup if I wanted more power. As it stands now, with the turbo this flowed out, I don’t know if anything will be worth the money. I would like to upgrade valve springs so I can rev it higher than 9k, but the 272’s still seem to be working up top.
Anyways, here’s the video:
