melon, andy has a evo8. i know he has cams i dont know if hes doing a dyno tune or something but i'll foward the info, do you do anything for sti's?

for all the free advertising you should give me $550 so i can get my GTI flashed with REVO. lol. joking of course. but seriously if you want to give me money thats fine.
eh, I just shake the haters off, there's always somebody faster, no reason to be arrogant.

thanks, I've only tuned one STI as a favor for a good local friend. I have evos lined up to tune and I just don't have time to branch out to other platforms. I guess that's a good problem to have though

when I bought the 35R the plan was to use it and my Aquamist HSF-5 kit to get to 500awhp. Well with some creative tuning I was able to reach my goal without meth so I sold the kit. I have this on the way and it should put me in the 135+ area on pump gas and 145+ on race gas with 10psi more.

Buschur Racing:
2.0l short block (forged bits good for 1000+awhp)
stage 3 head (ported polished bigger valves etc..)
bf 272 cams
coil on plug
aem ems
slicks

Would that car last on a road course of any type? That would be really sick on a road course or even a hill climb event.

on a road course I'd likely fatten it up a bit to the 10.8 AFR area for a little more cushion and I think it would be fine. I've been waiting for a local porsche club meet to roll around...I think I could bust some ass out there.
