I just picked up the car this morning and it is very explosive in acceleration. I am a happy man.
Adam did a great tune, the car just purrs and the cold start and stalling issues and light throttle jerkiness have been completely eliminated.
I cant recommend Adam any more highly as a tuner, he is very talented but so relaxed and cool.
Rear wheel traction is now very limited. A softer rear tyre compound is required to put this amount of power down.
Adam suggested Mickey Thompson Streets which are good to put down 400rwkw with rear wheel drive car on the street.
The only concern Adam had was that I premixed the fuel in exact mixtures rather than just pour the Toluene in the fuel tank and estimate.
I believe he has experience/ knowledge of Toluene before as he wasnt at all phased by my backyard rocket fuel.
He did encourage the use of E85 though.
I just had the injectors and fuel pump installed and am not keen on spending further to upgrade again to run E85.
When E85 is more widely available and convenient I may consider upgrading the fuel system and the ECU incorporating the option of a Flex fuel sensor to automatically adjust the tune to suit the ethanol content of the fuel in the tank.
This will be only for convenience rather than any improvement in performance, as it stands the turbo is near at its max airflow.
The only upgrade I will consider is the Forced Performance billet HTA3076R which has produced 600whp on E85 at 38psi. This turbo actually spools faster than the GT3076r and makes GT35R power. I would hate to lose the response of the current setup.
However the cost and down time cant be justified and it will purely be an academic exercise to satisfy my curiosity and satisfy my need to fiddle with things, as the car cant put down the present torque level efficiently.
