I finally got everything finished up and got her tuned. I had Ray from Turbotek tune her up for me and he was def. a class act guy. He actually got her running smoother than she ever has for me. He was even able to get my idle dialed in 100% so it idles clean without any hiccups.
We did decide to back off just slightly on the boost (23psi) and made the timing quite a bit less aggressive which seemed to actually help on smoothness while making it seem like the car was even pulling harder. IIRC he said that the previous timing was set at 17* or something around there… which was a little more aggressive than I really wanted. I would prefer to keep it reliable and sacrifice a little power to make sure I won’t be rebuilding the engine anytime soon. He also dialed in my AFR’s and got everything running 10000000x better.
According to the program he uses, she put down approx. 375awhp and 378ft/lbs torque… which I am pretty happy with. I know I could have gotten more by pushing the boost and the timing, but I’ll keep the lower numbers to have the added reliability.
Big thumbs up to Ray!!!
I did however have a mild heart attack on one of the pulls though…lol. At full boost we all of a sudden heard a loud pop and the car shut off. I was about to panic and he helped the situation by looking at the data on his laptop and seeing that we had a sudden drop in boost / vacuum. Opened the hood and sure enough the main throttle body inlet hose had popped off. When I did the FMIC I could not for the life of me find a 2.75" - 2" silicone coupler so I used a 3" - 2" and a small piece of silicone hose as a ‘spacer’ for a temporary solution. So I knew that would be my weak point. We pulled the ‘spacer’ out and tightened the clamp down and she was good the rest of the time. But man, when that loud ass pop went off and everything shut off, my heart sank… lol.
Edit: And now, with everything tuned up and running perfectly, I will be leaving it for quite a while so I can actually enjoy it. No more modding for quite a bit (other than finishing / figuring out the gauge setup). Plus I’ll hopefully have a new bike to spend money on, as well as some body mods I want to start working on (new tattoos)
