Congrats! That is a lot of power. I am happy to hear you can finally enjoy it especially after spending so much money. I thought the little annoyances was part of the game as well, but I found out there aren't when the right shop does the work. Sam is great! SGP sucks!

congrats on the power level.

my car is also currently sitting at GT Motorsports

i don't know much about timing, open loop, closed loop, duty cycle, etc., so my trust is with Sam to tune my car right, and based on all the comments thus far, I am confident my money is being well spent.

it is a lot of money. so true what everyone says, there is no such thing as cheap FI...

Thanks George for putting up those dyno sheets. Your right Sam does do an amazing job and the attention to detail and the pride he takes in doing it really show in the finished product. I"m very happy with the way she is driving now.

I thought the little annoyances was part of the game as well, but I found out there aren't when the right shop does the work. Sam is great!
I know what you mean bro, sounds like we both went through the same adventure if you can call it that

Congrats on the great #'s man... You know you are rocking a VERY solid, reliable, and drivable tune if you have Sam working on your car.

Yea, it was a blast on the Tail of the Dragon last weekend on low boost. Now we are adding a few more things and going for a slightly higher boost level. My girl is loving that feeling of being thrown back in the seat when full boost kicks in..

Probably better to wait until a few of us have worked the bugs out... These bugs cost a lot of money to get rid of...... Trust me.

The lower the timing the higher your EGT will be. Don't know what turbos u are running but u maybe out of the effeciency range of the turbo. Basically blowing hot air.

The best I have saw so far was 20PSI @ 630whp from a shop in Deleware. Looked like after 20psi the 18'gs are out of steam.
