Before tune...



@ 8-9psi

 

you need tuning.

 

After tuning.



@8psi.

Still needs some touches, I was too tired to get it done in one day... it's running a lot smoother.

 

VERY VERY Nice!! way to clean up the graph!

 

HAHA i love the "you need tuning" post between the charts haha

 

I'm still having 2 minor issues with the damn tune. It bogs (a/f is steady so its not cutting fuel?) when the car is slowed down in gear below 2k and it tends to lean out during the slow down between 3-2.7k (fuel is cutting?)

Other than that, shieeeet :]

 

WoW nice i wish i could show you guys my sheet i have it on video but i have the same set up, tuned by RAY, stock cat, exhust, and i have 249 hp and 237 torque @6-7 psi. I have to say ray is really good at this ... it ran ok but now it runs like stock... love it. bart maybe if you are close to MD might want to try RAY.

 

Yeah i wish i had a scanner or my digicam on me, my dyno graph looks similar to yours i even have some of the same dipps through the band. My 2 runs where done @ 9.5lbs and 11.5lbs of boost.

 

I beat my friends ej20 (wrx) turbo so I'm pretty satisfied with my tune. Beat by 3 cars...

 

did the wrx have any mods or was it stock?

 

Now crank up the boost a couple more PSI and you'll be waxing those '06 STi's and M6's (from a roll anyway... )

-MD

 

It had an ecutek ems, an exhaust and a really sick bov.

 

Can you link me to your injectors? I'm looking into upgrading..

 

I have injectors that all come from RX8's. I have 490cc's from an AT 8 and 4 more 380cc injectors.

 

bart how many miles on the engine?

 

24k.

I'm trying to sell it because it serves me NO purpose since I'm in college and home like once every 2-3 months..

 

dyno no show

 

What's wrong with the dyno..? The car is running at almost stock boost. The car is fast.

 

I can see it now. Much nicer curves now. Did your peak numbers come down for safety? Might I suggest water/meth injection. Makes me want to trade in my WRX and boost up an rx8. not enough though.
How come your revs don't go all the way up to 9K?

 

Hmm... I don't know why haha, didn't even notice it. Give me your WRX

 

man, i will seriously trade you any day. screw cargo room, i bought a minivan for that. now i'm tired of the rex's style. AWD is great and all, but it doesn't even snow here. oh well, i love my turbo.

 

I just ran my friend that bought an 04 WRX with GReddy turbo and FMIC and blah blah. not even close to me. His exhaust is back to stock since the dealership had to make it "street legal." But I almost felt bad for how nasty it was. Then we saw our friend in his s2k with invidia ti-cat back and injen CAI. That was just sad.
i still want an 8. soo sexilicious. all it needs is boost and some more modding love to get about perfect. None of the 8s i've come across even stay in the mirror, too bad.

 

Well I have been driving an 06 STI since late July. I am right now running the Cobb Access port stage 1, so I am making about 325 hp and 340 lb/ft torque. All I gotta say is damn. I tried and spent so much on the 8, and this STI would have no trouble eating my 8 for lunch any day of the week. I'm gonna pick up the 8 again I think at the end of this week or next. Seriously though, the 8 was a blast, but for such little effort this STI is so much quicker. Also, when I get a full TBE I can load the stage 2 map and make 380 tq and 355 hp. People with just the TBE, stg 2 map and a protune at a reputable tuner are making 341 whp and 361 wtq. That's sum pretty sick power for a stock turbo. Maddog, I bet ur 8 at 12psi can move pretty dang well and could mess with quite a bit from a roll, but this STI is a whole other animal.

 

Actually, I eat '06 STi's with Cobb tuning all the time. They are quicker off the line (damn all wheel drive) but I'm ahead by a car at the end of the 1/4 mile. From a roll its not even funny. I dust them every time.

 

What are ur qtr mile times at the strips? I'm sure the awd's tend to slow down at the end due to parastic loss. Could be driver related issues as well cus even from the factory, well here's the times.
