Default STi power update! re-tune with new parts!

this is just a update for those who dont make it over to eye-candy.

well i got my car re-tuned due to a colapsing inlet pipe, it was making good power before but would fall off bad because of the restrictive inlet. so i switched over to a solid pipe and a new boost controller and the results were awesome...
Mods..

Turbo back
avo 500
xspower fmic
helix 860
walboro 255
cobb 70mm intake
APS inlet
smc meth
gruppe-s headers
ultimate racing uppipe with 38mm tial EWG
act clutch
cobb acessport
Turbosmart e-boost2
and a few more odds and ends...

The only changes i made to the car from last tune to this one was i added a turbosmart e-boost2 and the aps inlet. well here are the numbers, i dont have the pump map but the numbers were.....

Pump 410/408 21psi

and here is the Meth dyno graph compared to my old colapsing inlet map this dyno run was tuned at 26.5 psi.

456/454




Now as you can see the power holds flat and doesnt fall off bad like it did before.

Impressive numbers

I'd like to see this car make a few passes once the track opens back up.
