Well guys i installed some new parts (vertical flow intercooler, evo TT exhaust, FIC 650's) and i went and got a retune and got a lot more than i thought! See when i changed the intercooler i found some more boost, about 2 more psi, and it was exactly 2 to be exact. i was making 9.8 before, this time i made 11.8 and it shows in the retune!
Couldnt be any happier right now, there is one thing i need to change about the setup and thats my IAT placement, with the hood closed the IAT's shot WAY up because of where the sensor is, so i got an obd1 iat weld in bung and im going to weld it in to the charge pipe at the throttle body. But other than that she pulls real hard

glad to get the play by play... we should have a meet n greet once Mr. granny shifting breaking trannies over here gets his sweet ass ride back together lol
Such a comedian Dre
Damn... amazing the difference with such a simple change.
very very nice ... Has a nice power curve too people are going to have a hard time keeping up haha... Be sure to let them know its a little a3
Haha and Dre we definately will have to! And thanks guys I'm loving the setup now it's pretty great, have a couple little quirks to work out but so far it's awesome. And I didn't post it on here but I raced a revhard turbo Ep3 (a3) on 10 psi before this tune, and even with him brake boosting and me not, I still walked him good. Probably by like 4 cars I not more, and that was at 300
Makin me rethink my IC setup : (
I know i have higher comp/free flowing head/different cams than you do... but that simple swap made that much of a difference for you... imagine if you had gone backwards to a much smaller IC like i plan to use. : X
Dammit. No one around here does mandrel pipe work and i dont have a welder yet (im concerned about gettin charge piping done if i use a full sized IC).
I'm like the wtq numbers! Must be a blast to drive on at wot
Nicely done.
