I finally got the power tune done today. The tuner thinks there can be more power to be made considering the following:

- It was 25 degrees today
- No adjustments were made to the cam gears
- Boost was only set to 1.25 bar
- No fan pointing to the side-mount intercooler

Nevertheless I’m very happy with the result. Pictures below:

Senor_2: Thanks man. The car feels smooth, and pulls pretty damn hard!

greddy_es: Thanks Adrian. I think the PE1919T is capable of more power maybe another 10rwkw with my current setup, some fine tuning, more boost (this turbo's sweet spot is supposed to be 1.3 - 1.4 bar) and a nice cool day. However I'm happy with the "reliable" 228KW it has made.

Keep me posted if you can still get brand new ones from Power Enterprise. However I remember reading a few years ago they stopped making them.

MR2QIK: Thanks pare! You were pretty much spot on with the power figure. I do plan on enjoying it for the time being. I can only imagine what your car is like to drive now!

j_8264: Thanks man. I hope you get your car back soon.

By the way I think your car would be a good platform for a GEN III transplant. Black, hard top and there aren't many G model SW20's going around.

My engine, took off the rocker cover, intake manifold and cam gear cover and cleaning them up, will hand it to ian in a couple of days to get the cambelt and whatever else done and get it ready to be put in. Exhaust is shiny now too, I've got pics of it all on facebook.
