The harsh light of truth was shining upon me. That is what separates you and I my friend..... My wife was fully informed of my decision to have Todd upgrade my diverter valves and wastegate springs.

Oh the life of lies we lead!

Kevin, fantastic hearing your car is complete. Todd & John wrapped this up for you in short order. Looking forward to the ensuing documentary of her life on the road.

Lets just hope that our wifes never meet. If they do, we my friend are ****ed...I told Todd "cash is King!!!". Now if I was Joe , he's got that special CC that goes to his busness. One day all three wifes will show up at Peter Lugers then We're all ****ed...

 

KPG - did you delete your reply to my post about logging the car? I read your reply in my email but didnt get to reply back until now and I don't see it anymore...weird...

Anyways...happy to hear you have Durametric...I'm very interested to see logs of the car once you get home.

 

Actually, I didnt delete it... the 4 Margueritas last night did , I was trying to edit it to correct some spelling. I just like my grammar proper, and BOOM, it was gone. I was staring at the screen with a blank look on my face... decided it would be safer to watch the Red Wings from my couch. But ,yes I do have Durametric and anyone with a car that is modified from the minor to the major really should have it...
Editing again, dont get upset if its gone!... BTW how do you like your 3071s?

 

So the tuning continues: latest numbers with different IC

Last night: with BLOWN 6 IC
662 AWTQ
730 AWHP


Today with Evoms IC
730 AWTQ
780 AWHP

The car gained 102 TQ @ 4500 RPM just with swapping IC

 

Here is the final Dyno sheet

 

Blown 6 ICs for sale...make offer Sportec CF airbox for sale...make offer GT3 RMS, slightly used and leaks like a sieve for sale, just pay shipping.....

 

Are your serious Kevin, the B6's were that bad? That is staggering!

Thanks Tom for posting... we learned a lot about intercoolers last night and this morning. We could not get past 730 or so AWHP last night in mid 90 degree heat. We did swap out the cats for straight pipes but kept the Switzer exhaust on the car. This morning we put on a set of EVO ICs and we got 780 at 7800 rpm. The amazing thing on the dyno sheet Tom posted, which is the best run from yesterday compared to the best run from today, is the mid range TQ. A full 100 AWTQ jump at 4500rpm just by swapping the B6 anti-intercoolers for the EVO unit... no other change and temps are the same. We are done with race fuel tuning , I am sure we can run it up a few more hundred rpm,but at this point 780AWHP and 730 AWTQ is just fine by me....

Currently retuning pump gas for the new ICs and cat deletes. First run on 93 was 673AWHP and 673AWTQ. Although AFRs on the run were 11 even we are going to tune down to high 10s and 640-650 at the wheels and call it a day. All in all, I have the time of my life hanging out with the EVOMS crew. I just hope Todd isnt billing me for all the RaceFuel energy drinks.... what a ride it has been..

 

Ben, I will sell them to you if you are interested! Actually they were that bad. It wasnt even temps it was pressure drop as well. They are garbage, plain and simple. The cores might be good but we were FLOWING more air as well as cooler air.....
BTWm your exhaust looks bad ***. I am still waiting on my X flow exhaust, although I am not sure of the delay. Daryl will have your exhaust done in about two business days....

 

Congrats on your final numbers Kevin, very strong indeed. It is good to see comparions like this back to back, makes me happy I have the EVOMS IC's.

I am glad you are seeing progress on my exhaust, I am looking forward to seeing and hearing the final result.

Have you taken yours for a boot yet?

Ben

 

I drove it yesterday with a low boost file, anti-intercoolers, a leaking IC(long story) and it was popping and sputtering at 100mph or so when I did full throttle runs.... did I mention I left the PSM on. Turned off the PSM and it ran like a top....scary car actually, and that was before we added several hundred hp and tq....

 

Congrats!! Great numbers and good AFR indeed. EVOMS IC's are the best, I added them the first thing two years ago. Rev is still going up, any reason why you stopped the dyno at 7880rpm?

 

Cngrats Tom....

 

Great numbers Tom, congrats!
