Mellon Tuning FP RED 93 octane 430hp 380tq
Owner: Jon
Username: EvolvedGTI
Atlanta, GA
2006
EVO9
EVO8 5-speed tranny
PTE 1000
93 octane
30 psi
tbe 02 ported exhaust mani test pipe
fmic
ported intake tb
Cosworth M2
FP Red
aps twin vent
DLL 430/380 400lbs contents 255/35/18 wheels/tires
I tuned this car previously to about the very same numbers prior to the test pipe and aps twin vent which replaced the buschur high flow cat and forge bov (was surging badly). The previous tune was done in very cold weather (January) and it's very hot now (May) which could explain why the test pipe in particular didn't show gains. It might be a different story in cold weather.  Regardless, the car is fast as hell, we took some twisties in it and the fun factor is waaaaay up there, more than enough power and very responsive

it's no joke either, I was riding with Jon holding on to the laptop and after ever run I said to him...damn this thing pulls like nuts on the big end. Just when you think that natural power drop was going to happen at high rpm, the thing just kept going and going. Hell of a fun car to ride in and I've ridden in some crazy fast cars.

it really is a great turbo...these cars with my tune will do 400-450awhp all day long on 93 octane and still spool nicely.
I have 3 guys looking to do this same setup but adding a Buschur Stage 3 head to the mix...I can't wait to see what that will do coupled with my tuning.

Thanks Chris, Just got back. You are right, the fun factor is WAY up. I had the wife screaming at me on the way home today. It keeps pulling............lol. The only one who likes it as much as I do is my daughter. They enjoyed meeting you!
