The following information is gains over my stage 3+ runs with the stock turbos (on pump 93 octane). Also one fun fact, todays conditions were a lot worse than when we did the stage 3+ runs with the stock turbos:

Solid gains 3k -> Redline, minimal loss down low. Torque gains as much as 60wtq. Above 5500rpm through redline we gained as much as 50-55whp. Peak HP was at around 6200rpms, 30-35whp gains throughout the RPM range down low.

today was a success, and there is more to come

Very excited about the results!! Thanks again for taking the day to help us test/tune!!

I look forward to more testing in better conditions next week.

It better be no more than 400 bucks!

I think this is the first time I've ever dyno tuned a car without ever hearing it or seeing it on a dyno

the amount of money i have already spent on this car makes my stomach churn a little

What's another $2K - $2.5K + $500 for install at this point...
