Killed a rainy Sunday morning painting the engine cover.

Sweet. Got my tune scheduled for next month. Now I've just got to do some basic housekeeping stuff to be ready. The only downside is the dyno the tuner uses is a real heartbreaker. Oh well. I'll take it to the same dyno where I did my baseline to see the finished product.

Yep. Paul recommended them pretty highly. Coincidentally, they rebuild my old STi after the guy I sold it to blew it up.

I need to finish up a few items so I can go back and finish my WOT tables 100%. Everything else I had problems with they worked out, but working on WOT we ran into some minor issues. So not driving super hard right now, but the car drives so much better than before.

This tune should hold me as long as I'm still on the stock block. I'm not being super aggressive.

Yeah, Eric asked how I wanted it tuned and I said DD.
So he is not going to push every last little bit out, he can if you want to see what he can run and then dial back but no need really because then you will want the power.

My goal is just under 500whp dynojet, so maybe 410 on their dyno.

One of the guys in Houston who just finished his GTM TT kit with a 7AT put down 450 on their dyno.

We talked about that. He's internally gated and they had an issue not being able to lower boost. I'm external with a boost controller, so I should be ok. 450 on their dyno is past my comfort level for a daily driver.

Yeah, Chris has been having fun with his car after boost.

Ill bet. That's a 550whp car on a dynojet for sure.

What shop are you guys talking about? I have looked into JTran, Precision R, and JMS Racing. There was another shop Dyno something but they need the kit and car in hand to let me know any info.

Kozmic. If I were having a kit put on, I'd use them or SSP. Jason at SSP put my kit on when he was still at Baker Tuning. I like Johnny at JTran, but I'm not too impressed with some of his mechanics.

Thanks I'll google them and see if they can give me a price for some supporting mods and instalation/tuning
