My experience at TT 326whp, 343tq

[SNEAKYEVO]

Well the car finally went into the hands of the crew at TT yesterday. I have been talking for a few months now with Alfred and Jenn as well as some of the other guys at the shop regarding my upgrades. I'm getting Cosworth Cams, AMS LICP, TT downpipe, TT test pipe, Greddy Ti C catback, Dejon MBC, ARP headstuds, Walbro, K&N drop in, and Alfreds tuning. I can't wait to see the outcome. When I dropped off the car yesterday, Jenn was great as for getting everything moving smoothly. Paul was busy getting all my parts in order and ready for the day. It was great. The car goes on the dyno today so we'll see how it does. I'll update later today for my results and graph. Thanks again to TT for awesome service!

[Gear Grinder]

cant wait to see what you get on 91oct.

[05WickedWhitey]

Sweet list of mods ... Good luck on ur tune today !! Im sure alfred will work his magic O0

[SNEAKYEVO]

Just got some bad news. There was a mix up and the injectors were not ordered so no tune today. zi forgot and Jenn forgot or something. Anyone know where I can get some quick? Any vendors you recommend. The car wasn't complete yet. The LICP and boost controller were still sitting in the office when I went down there an hour ago. Hopefully everything will be done today so I can at least have a car. I'll just granny it until I get the injectors and tune done. I'll keep you guys updated.

[Jenn@ttech]

Yeah! Sorry about that Charlie! :oops: We will get those in for you asap and you will be boosting in no time!!! The good news is the cossie cams are in your evo and everyone else's are on back order.... :twisted:

[SNEAKYEVO]

It's cool Jenn. Just a little bumped obviously. I understand things happen. Thank you for getting the Cossie cams for me. Just got off the phone with you. Thanks for the great communication. See ya guys soon.

[G20]

I have a set of good working Precision 780cc injectors if that is what you need.

[Evo8you]

get them Charlie. !!!!!

[Jenn@ttech]

Thank-you Charlie!!! You are so nice. :angel: Talk to you tues.

[JOOTZ]

interested to see the final numbers...

[SNEAKYEVO]

Just wanted to update everyone. I picked up the car yesterday around 5:30. Everything was installed on the car and Paul and Alfred went over everything with me. I talked with Jenn and Alfred and ordered the Precision 780cc injectors. I wanted everything brand new so thanks for the offer G20. The car is not tuned yet so I have to granny drive till sometime next week. No biggie, as Alfred said it was completely safe as long as I stay out of boost. The car sounds way louder and mean! I'm very happy with the results so far. I can't wait till the injectors come in and the car gets tuned. I'll post more updates later next week.

[vortech_g35]

I have infamous 910cc Injectors :D. Maybe you will get tuned on Wed. when I drop off my car. Would be nice to see what numbers you pull out.

[Evo8urv8]

Which one is your car, Sneaky? I was there yesterday. I came down for clutch install. :grin:

[SNEAKYEVO]

I have the GG 06 IX SE with the Defi gauges center pod and the Blitz turboi timer. I think I saw your car there. Do you have an AMS FMIC? Silver? If so I saw them working on it when I stopped by. Which one did you go with? How many miles were on your old clutch? So how much power do you guys think I'll make? I heard people are getting towards the 350 mark with my upgrades and with the Cossie cams.

Just want to say again that Jenn and Alfred have been great. Hopefully Alfred can get me towards the 350 mark!

Yep, that was my Silver 8 with the AMS FMIC. I managed to get my stocker up to 20k :D

I didnt hear people getting a 9 like yours with those mods getting to the 350 mark. Alfred told me straight up that u are about 350 or right on 350 O0

BTW, nice IX u got there and feel sorry about your windshield cracked already. :-(

Last but not the least, Alfred and the TT crew did a AWESOME job on the Exedy even though I was late. :bow:

[vortech_g35]

Anybody gonna be there Wed? I'm gonna be there dropping off my car :D.

[SNEAKYEVO]

Thanks for the compliments. Ya, I love the car. I just want to do everything right the first time mods and install shop and I think I have. I actually got the crack on my windshield when I went there to get my EGT tapped. Sucks but oh well. God I can't wait to get it tuned. Hopefully by Friday at the latest. I love the AMS FMIC. That will be the FMIC I get when I get the TT 3076 turbo kit. Going to drive it today. Just cruise around. Happy Memorial Day guys and girls! I was in the School of Infrantry three years ago at this time. Crazy how time flys by.

[SNEAKYEVO]

Ok guys/girls, another update. Just talked to Jenn and she ordered the injectors. I have an appointment on Friday at 9 to install them then tune it after. So if anyone is in the area stop by. Can't wait.

[LiquidLife]

I would, but I have to work!

[SNEAKYEVO]

No problem. I'll post up so video later on that day. 2 more days!

[LiquidLife]

Damnit, I wish I could get stg 1 w/cams w/inj right now.

[SNEAKYEVO]

Why not? Just do it! That's what I did, plus I have 0% fin. on purchases for 2 years on my new Wamu Credit Card! That helped out a lot.

[LiquidLife]

I wish it were that easy :)

[SNEAKYEVO]

It's cool bro. Sooner or later you'll get it done.

[Jenn@ttech]

We are ready to go Charlie. Your injectors will be here today! ;)

[SNEAKYEVO]

Awesome Jenn! Thanks. See you at 9. O0

[SNEAKYEVO]

Ok guys and girls I got the car tuned this morning. They first installed the 780cc injectors. Props to Oscar! Jenn, my buddy Albert and I just chilled in the office smokin and joking. Alfred showed up and the car went on the dyno. Alfred did an awesome job. He was able to get 326whp and 343tq on straight 91oct. He said that the stock air box maybe restricting the power on the top end. Low end power is crazy! Car pulls like a bat out of hell. I'm very pleased with the quality of work that TT has shown me. They are all awesome people and it's been a great project thus far. I'll try to get Jenn or Alfred to post up the dyno sheet. Thanks again to the crew at TT!

[LiquidLife]

^ Did you get the drop in air filter?

[SNEAKYEVO]

Yep, I sure did.

[MR. Birdie]

Strange, alot of people made good power with the stock air box? I'll be running a stock air box.

[sidewaysevo]

When I get a few more parts together I am going back in for a retune. I going to swap out the stock air box for a arc airbox hopefully I get good results from it.

[SNEAKYEVO]

Same here. Alfred is going to do some research and see what's going on. But, I'm happy with the results considering that I went from a 211whp, 217tq WRX to this! Major difference!

[Evo8urv8]

Nice gains there, Sneaky O0

Props to Alfred and the TT crew :grin:

haha, yea thats a big jump. I'm glad that you're satisfied with the results. Your car did really good. O0

[SoCal]

Nice numbers!!! O0

[SNEAKYEVO]

Thanks guys! I'll see if Jenn can post up the graph.

[GR8 Whte]

Hey sneaky i was there i pulled 319whp and 316tq btw

[Evo8urv8]

Hey sneaky i was there i pulled 319whp and 316tq btw

[GR8 Whte]

EVo 8 with 272 cams and bolt ons at 22 psi

[SNEAKYEVO]

Congrats bro! How does it feel? My girlfriend keeps getting whiplash but she loves it just as much as I do.

[4G63 FEVER]

Don't you read anything besides this site? Buschur has shown time and again that the stock air box is good for close to 400 HP. Wise up it's nothing new.

Ya but if u want the most power from ur setup I would go with an open element air filter.. It also seems to hold boost better ,It doesn't taper as much according to my defis.. Even Alfred stated it could have restricted the power in the top end!!

[GokuSSJ4]

didnt he reply with this



^ Did you get the drop in air filter?


Yep, I sure did.

drop in filter not open element filter ....

[SNEAKYEVO]

I'll be posting pics and video tonight.

[SNEAKYEVO]

Here is a vid of Alfred tuning the EVO. Thanks again TT for everything.

What kind of 272s? I got 272s too

[SNEAKYEVO]

I think he has the HKS 272's

[GR8 Whte]

yup he's right car pulls really good

[SNEAKYEVO]

I've been reading that there is possibility that I'm getting low hp numbers due to the gas. I heard that 76 is the best gas so that's what I've been using. I fill up on the cornier of Redlands Blvd and Tippecanoe/Anderson. Does anyone else fill up there? Where are there other 76 gs stations in the area? Thanks for the info.

Charlie

[SNEAKYEVO]

Just a quick question. When I start the car up in the morning it starts right up. But after I drive it and let it sit while it won't start easy. I have to turn the key back and turn it on again. Not sure if fuel isn't getting into the motor or what? I can hear the fuel pump going so??? Or is this normal? I'm new to the EVO world so any help would be great. Thanks guys.

no thats not normal... and judging by your numbers i would say maybe there is something wrong that affected your car also when it was getting tuned... Cause i had a lot less mods than you on my ix and i got 318whp w/ 323 wtq... thats without cams, licp, injectors, and a high flow cat instead of a test pipe.... if i had all that i'd expect at least 345-350 whp!! ... sounds like maybe its one of your injectors or something, or the fuel pump?

[SNEAKYEVO]

I thought if there was a problem with the injectors or fuel pump that Alfred would have caught it during tuning. I'm going to go by TT next week and have them look over everything just to be sure.

[LiquidLife]

Have to spoken to TT recently to inquire about your problems?

[sidewaysevo]

Does your exhaust neck down at the cat?

[LiquidLife]

^That would have been too easy to diagnose.

[SNEAKYEVO]

The catback does neck down a little bit at the test pipe. Not much though. I have talked with Alfred and he's looking into the power issue.

[LiquidLife]

how much does it neck down.

[SNEAKYEVO]

I think from what's 3 inch? 80mm? Down to 76mm probably, not that much.

[LiquidLife]

LOL, 76mm is 2.99 inches and 80 mm is 3.15 inches, so yeah, that's fine.
