was the t67 evo from around here?
He lives in Canada, about 2 hours away.
sure, if you call 13k in an ams longblock kit custom grind 272’s, venom 770’s and a egay 60-1 turbo:banghead::spank:
That 240 is an interesting mix. It has an ebay turbo setup and an undersized chinese intercooler, but supposedly has a nice engine in it. It doesn’t reach 16 psi until redline and has some electrical issues that need sorted out, but it definitely has potential. I look forward to seeing much more power from that car in the future after a bit of work.:tup:
We did a little work on an 09 WRX today and the customer had us dyno it before and after the work so I have a bunch of graphs for you.
This graph has the stages the car went through today. It came in as a stock car with an AccessPORT running the Cobb stage 1 93 octane map. I ran it like that twice. On pull made a touch more hp and the other made a touch more torque, but it was consistent and safe. Then we took it off the dyno, installed the exhaust parts, put it back on the dyno, loaded the Cobb stage 2 93 octane map, drove it a little to get the dynamic advance multiplier to 1.0, and did 2 pulls. One was higher than the other so I used the high pull. Then I custom tuned the car.
Here’s the Cobb map vs. my tune by themselves:
Here’s just his before/after for the day:
And here’s Mike’s poor 08 STI which we use for comparison’s a lot. 09 WRX stage 2 with my tune vs. the 08 STI stock:
Mike’s FP Green STI:
And here’s what happens when your turbo is on the way out. These two STIs had basically the same parts on them except Steve’s turbo was beat up. Notice the massive difference in spoolup aside from the big power difference.
Just picked my car up tonight (Mike’s 04 STI on the above graphs) and couldn’t be happier with the results, it was a bumpy road to get to this point, but it turned out excellent. BIG thumbs up to Mike and the guys at Innovative with the work that they did, Thanks a lot! Now I get to enjoy it.
I’m glad you’re enjoying it! 
Here’s another:
And this is why we love this turbo. Zero low end power loss. Big gains in the mid range and top end.
This is all despite this being a toned down tune until he goes from the 70 to 83 mm intake and gets some DW injectors.
ive been meaning to take my car up there. i jus picked up a tt 94 supra a few months ago and curious to what its pushing
Sounds good. We have a dyno day Friday or the dyno is available for pulls by appointment Monday-Saturday.
Dyno day today. Charts here:

Sorry about not posting some recent charts. I’ve been really sick for almost 2 weeks now.
Here’s the first car I’ve tuned with Hondata’s new Flash Pro. VTEC crossover was a bit more pronounced on the graph than I’d like, but it happened to fall where it affected turbo spool.
This one ended up being diagnosing a boost creep problem for a customer built car, more than tuning, but we were able to narrow the issue down to a combination of a small wastegate and a restrictive dump pipe so the customer knows what he needs to fix.
1 hour nitrous and non nitrous quickie tune on a modded GSR engine.
Daily driver 91 octane tune for a mildly modded 2L WRX.
93 octane daily driver tune for a mildly modded 2006 2.5L WRX. Shown compared to an 08 STI for a point of reference.
There’s been a few sneaky forced induction mustangs in the last couple weeks and a few other snky snky’s but you’ll have to find out what they put down at the track.
Here’s an Evo X we just modded and tuned. I dyno’d it with just the hard hot IC pipe since we haven’t run a stock or almost stock Evo X on our dyno yet. They all seemed to show up with at least intake/exhaust mods already bolted on before this one. ~200 whp seems to be what Evo X’s and new STis make on our dyno.
Just installing the cat back, test pipe, AEM air intake, and hard intercooler piping made the boost go from 21 psi stock to 23 psi and the gains between the extra boost and the parts was nice all by itself.
Then the custom tune allowed me to improve spoolup around 500 RPM and increase power across the entire RPM range. This car is stock aside from the above parts. With a fuel pump and MBC plus a quick retune we can get more out of it. An upgraded downpipe would help too, but this was a nice gain for some basic parts.
32% horsepower increase at the wheels with basic parts and tuning. I like it.
And here’s two of the other cars I was tuning today. A third Evo turned out to have some leaks that weren’t easily fixed i.e. exhaust manifold to head gasket so it had to be put off to another day.
This Evo 8 came in customer modded and I just tuned it. There was a lot of room for improvement since the stock ECU mapping was at odds with his basic mods in a big way.
And here’s a customer built Civic I was working on tuning until the distributor totally freaked out. I got to see a car do something I’ve never seen before tonight. When the distributor broke, the sleeve on the rotor spun 180 degrees, causing the distributor to fire off time, making the engine spin BACKWARDS while at an idle. I did a triple take and then shut the car off. Before that happened it was making some good power for pump gas:
Here’s the rotor from the Honda distributor that failed. You can see the keyway spun almost 180 degrees from the key/notch in the plastic rotor, causing the engine to fire WAY off time.
We were revving the engine to ~9300 RPM. Between that and the rate of acceleration of the plastic rotor as it was driven by the cam via that collar, it decided to take the rest of the night off. We’ll hopefully get a new one in there tomorrow.
nice, is that a local civic?
It’s local. It’s up to 500 whp now. Here’s a video of me attempting a drag pass with it on the dyno today:
And a dyno pull:
Here’s where we finished up for now on the tuning yesterday:
He used to have a nice intercooler for the car, but it was destroyed in a flywheel explosion so this is all on a cheap asian core. It wasn’t gaining as much power per psi of boost as the setup would otherwise so he’ll be swapping this for a good one in the future and we’ll retune it.
