17 psi 619.6 rwhp

There were a couple of minor issues we encountered! Anything above 13-14psi, we started having boost spike. The problem is, the wastegate spring is to soft, for the amount of boost, we're trying to make. I'm going to order 12lb springs next week and have her tuned again. I'll post pics of the tune later today.

BTW, I had a dream last night, that I ran an E55 AMG from Dallas to Houston. We started from a 3rd gear roll, gave him a 3 honk notice and we were off. He pulled about a half a car from the initial start, but quickly put about 3-4 cars on him, by the top of fourth. Mind you, this was at 10psi. Remember, it was just a dream I dont condone street racing, but highway racing is different


Are you on stock cams still?

Awesome piece of work you've got there, turismo; I'd like to see the etc., etc., etc.

Good Luck with the 800 horses and boost spike. I trust that keeping the actuator zipped up will do the trick; as sometimes it could be a number of factors, including the EMS.

It is great to see a good number of people getting real serious about their VQ35DE. We make a great contribution to the industry, you know, as we help to finance the R&D to discover what's good and whats bad........for the mighty VQs

Keep us up dated....
