Thanks man, I figured I’d post on here about the Evo since the thread got shut down, buschur tuned it out to 390hp on his Dyno , it had slight knock in 4th but he was guessing it was due to cheap gas I put in on the turnpike and needing some new plugs and wires so I got them , puttin them in now and gonna log it later tonight with shawn see what we get, thanks for the advice on going to buschur he was actually a really cool guy and helped me out a ton

Good deal man , glad you had a good experience. Yeah that junk out on the ohio turnpike sucks for sure what is it Valero or some shit. 390 on his dyno will go 11’s around 119-120 mph in the 1/4

What boost did you end up running on pump?

Straight 93 pump gas

He said the car tuned out very well, he thought it was close to the most he’s ever made off of a stock ecu, claims he could have made into the 400s with a better intercooler but he said he was very happy and comfortable with the tune so I feel somewhat confident with the car now

Eh 2 psi isn’t that big of a loss I’d rather have it running consistent right now and I did a bunch of pulls in various gears and it runs great so I’m happy as is

The del sol is currently at joes shop getting tuned. So far I think he said it made 416whp on 16lbs or so, the wastegate spring was to weak to go higher so I ordered a 14psi spring , dropped it off this morning so hopefully hear some bigger numbers tonight

new numbers today were 450whp but the wastegate shit the bed so i need a new one

del sol tuned out to 440whp at 23psi, its not what i hoped for but joe thinks its because the stock cams are pretty much tapped out, at first i was a little disapointed in the numbers, until i took it on the parkway and i remember how fast a small car with 440whp is, i love it, car is wicked and cant wait to get some cams and a race gas tune

I’d imagine 440 is quite wicked in that car. We should run from a dig once my car is up and running again.

What were your times at 385? I am well aware of on the ass whooping that would occur on a roll… Traction might help me out here out of a dig
