How Kane Tunes an FI Renesis - Turbo, Ported, Ceramic Seals
Well since they didn't have an RPM Pickup they couldn't do a torque graph....ghey.
However, unlike most 8's my HP curve was the normal 45 degree slope up to about 5000RPMS or so (90 mph), and then jumps up almost vertical and goes back to the normal 8 slope until 8000 or so.
Thanks for reminding me...too bad I have to wait a year.

Probably need to tune my intake more - it is likely restriction to flow - as my APV's are opening at 5500 RPMS.
I just didn't want to sit there and spend more money to tune it up. Especially since my cobb display is dead.

Yes, that was what I saw with that engine even with the puny 18g turbo. It really wanted to breathe more at lower rpms. That's why I suggested experimenting with when you pop open the secondaries.
how can you tune without knowing what plugs you are running and why?
Big toolbag certainly knows the basics
.
But he probably has a lot more on his mind now than this stuff.

The OE plugs are good for almost any possible application and any of the replacement choices do little or nothing to the tune (until they wear out).
Well Thanks!
That seems to be the set up being ran--i wish i knew more about the "why".
No more thread jack----tune away dude
Heck by the time you get back--sigh---- we may have laser sparkplugs anyway.

I'm not going to lie - I set them up that way because Ray told me to...
I don't have enough time to be smart on everything - the trick is to know what your good at and to know people who are good at other stuff that you can ask.
Speaking of which, I still need Ray / someone to finish educating / setting up my car audio for next year.
2011 is the year of Kane's Interior.

HEHE - yeah I know Nuke - I am talking about a full interior gutting and all that.
It will be cool to get educated on what options are out there. As for wiring..... have at it! I ****** hate wiring.

I am unfamiliar with the latest gear but I am VERY skilled with the set-up, tuning, and psycho-acoustics, especially considering that you have frequency deficiencies in your hearing due to your work. We can set up a "Kane response" and an "Everyone else" response for your sound system tuning. 
Sounds like your interior is gonna need grab bars to hang on to. Hey, tape a $20 spot on the dash and challenge people to grab it if they can, as you spool past the boost threshold... LOL
I just had a kick *** dinner with my wife, now I'll see how Nukes car is doing and then if I am felling frogy finish my tuning thread.
If not then I'll do it later, I'M ON VACATION!
