All I wanted out of this was a cleaner tune, more consistent boost control, and no boost taper. Didn't want more than 510-520 whp so that is what I am being tuned to.

Found a boost leak this morning. As of 10 minutes ago, I was told he was at 495 with 2 more lbs of boost to go

Congrats, sounds like you may end up with around 550whp.

I agree the numbers don't seem so low and with 2psi more it should add at least 20whp.
The thing I find funny and this is not a flame, is how a lot of the APS guys are doing what they flamed the Greddy guys for doing......piecing together there own kit
.....fuel systems (although in Zivman's case he went to the Extreme APS fuel system), larger injectors, UTEC, FCON, etc.

Tuan said he got the car to 530 hp and 530+ tq at about 14 psi. He wanted to tune to one more lb of boost, but the clutch would start to slip. that is understandable considering it is rated at 525 tq at the flywheel. Tuned with an HKS Fcon Vpro and HKS EVC5
My motor is a very basic shortblock:
Arias 8.8:1 CR pistons
Eagle rods
ARP head and mains
stock heads
stock cams
This is the APS base kit with:
APS big fuel system
Crawford plenum
10 lb forge actuars
APS 3.5" test pipes
APS 2.5" exhaust
Koyo radiator
oil cooler

I have been running them for nearly the entire summer. For the most part, the exhaust sounds the same. At idle, you can hear the exhaust pulses a bit, but really there is no change in the exhaust note or volume

We are still working on what we will be doing. Looking at an Exedy D-core twin - due to availability
I had planned on getting an ATS twin, but have been hearing VERY mixed reviews about the ATS clutch setups. Some love them, others hate them.
