Eric as most of you know, has a really nice SPT'd 2008 Spec B with low miles

When he bought it, he brought it to me for a stage 1 tune, with a quick glance at the car the idle was way off, and on the stock map there was an extraordinary amount of knock correction and all fuel trims were completely out of wack for a stock car. I immediately told E to start looking for leaks and to watch the car. After a week or so of weird activity, the car let go. E rebuilt it (himself) with aftermarket pistons and now the car completely kicks ass :spin:. Slight bump in compression, vf52 and with the sti 6 speed ratios it is a total monster.

Mods:

VF52
XO2 FMIC
SPT intake/exhaust
Invidia DP
Forge unos

Here's a 19psi pass with extremely conservative timing and afr made for stock tmic'd cars, now we will dial in the FMIC next week.

Pretty sure it's an Invidia exhaust now :)
Can't wait to see what his final numbers come out to be.

No more plastic endtanks for Eric... :lol:

He'll be at 300 to the wheels when you are done, right?

Yeah, his total timing and overall boost is LOW.

I want to get him over to a grimmspeed solenoid to hold more boost up top, with new mods it appears to taper more.

Yeah, the parts keep moving around. ;) currently is Invidia catback, and perrin single cat DP. also this week, the walbro is going in and the header will hopefully be here. :D I think the graph looks respectable for not being dialed in.
