First off I must say brendan is a cool guy and he knows his stuff, he doesnt talk to you like your stupid like some tuners do, he puts up with your stupid questions and shows you the answer, litterally. The best thing I liked about the experience is that upon arrival for my tune he was ready to go, I have had experiences in other shops that had me in the books then I end up spending 12 hours there, without anything happening until 6 hours in. Needless to say I could write all day long about how great this guy is and professional he is, I will be going to him from now on for all my tuning needs. My car is an absolute monster now and he explains everything he is doing while he is doing it. A+++ for the services he offers, I WILL be going seeing him again in the future!

You got it man very happy with the tune as you could see when my cd's flew to the back seat from the torque lol. Hopefully we can get rid of the FBKC once I figure out the exhuast rattling/ vibrating sound and fix it up so that I can stop getting robbed from power due to timing getting pulled. But for now its still fast as a mother f***er right now :D

314whp on airboy.
Customer was tuned at another facility - which did a great job. But he had added a larger diameter intake/inlet and the tune was thrown off causing alot of fine learning knock. I just ended up re-doing all of it. Downpipe bracket is MIA and it's rubbing here and there causing some false feedback which the customer is going to address.

276wtq which was very good all things considering. I ran the car at lower boost then I normally would. In fact, I didn't touch the mbc from its last tune. Peak number was 18psi. Keep in mind with these TD05 18g's unported it will hold 18.5 at redline (it very lightly creeps in 4th)
Due to the reason above and since the car utilized a stock sti tmic and was a daily driver I did not push it. At 19-20 the car should touch close to 300wtq.

I installed a boost guage that same day and sure enough it holds all the way to 6900 rpms and then tapers to 16psi at 7300rpm. Regardless it hauls ass.

Here is a boost log of 3rd gear. Spool is a little slow with the ebay header design/leak. Peak torque was around 4000rpms.
3500 to 7200 RPM
This is corrected MRP, so it's not capped at 18.43 it just ended that way. :)
