Default Anticipation...

Those of you that remember my posts years ago will remember my ocean of problems stemming from the company that previously worked on my car. After $50+k, the car was never right.

I was reportedly in the 600rwhp class on a dyno that apparently was not "accurate".

My car has been with Sam at GTM for a while and I am finally going to receive it back from the transport co. on Monday next week.

Sam is scheduled to make a post soon but I am filled with anticipation such that I thought I would lead into it.

You can imagine, with 30-35k in just parts & EMS, it is a pretty serious build. Everything but sleeved on the engine really and world class electronics all the way...

Drive, trucker drive!

You should list your build, so the rest of us can be excited as well

i cant wait to hear see how that racelogic traction control works. How about flex fuel integration? boost by gear should be pretty fun as well.

I'm not the racelogic guy. That is the white 2010 I think. I can't list all of my stuff man. If I had it somewhere to copy/paste (wish I did) I would but the list is just too long. Let's wait for Sam to post the results. If he doesn't have most of it there, I'll get it done for you.

I got it back last Sunday and I've put about 420 miles on it. I don't have the dyno graphs yet but it's got to be in the 560 something wtq. Drivability is awesome. The twin disc is a little rough in traffic but I've had a triple in the past and it's like butter in comparison. The car is simply awesome. Pretty out of control at 15.4 peak psi on high boost. I have three maps as well. Mainly for high octane for the track. A little about the car:

05 35th Ann with rev-up
Stage 4 long block (.20 over CP 8.5:1 pistons, carillo rods, JWT S7 cams, 5 angle, ported/polished intake and exhaust ports, everything except oversized valves)
Greddy twin kit (18's)
All good cooling stuff
VPro EMS
Dual bank HKS knock amp v6
HKS EVC 6 boost controller
HKS Navigator
Defi gauges (mounted in stock locations)
GTM 3" down pipes with dump tubes yah or nah option
APS 2.5" exhaust for stock look
OS Giken twin disc
OS Giken diff
Brembo of course

Tons of other stuff but this speaks to the power and ems stuff.

Sam has a bunch of pics and stuff to post. If he does not soon, I will.

I hear you but the list is probably fifty long in total.

Prolly should just post the pics, GTM hasnt done a shop build thread in months.

15-17 psi is good for pump gas. do you plan on doing a race gas tune, meth or E85 tune?

Rumor has it, there's a race gas tune in the navigator but Sam has not exposed it to me yet. I guess he doesn't want me to kill myself before putting some miles on the car. I haven't really messed with the electronics too much. Really just getting used to the car again...

Sam created a 3" to 2.5" collector most of the way back. The back pressure doesn't seem to be a big deal. It flows very nicely as you can see by the dyno's
