KDR is probably the closest rotary tuning facility that has a dyno, for you. Dave is a whiz with tuning too. you should be seeing a good bit more power, and definately seeing boost before 4500RPMs.

If you get no boost til 4500rpm check your precontrol actuator rod end. IT sounds like the C clip that holds the rod on the precontrol door has come off and the rod has come off the precontrol door, thus eliminating boost under 4500rpm.

Yep, I carry a spare C-clip just for that reason. Too bad you have to remove a heat-shield to see for sure.
Found out the noise problem after stopping and checking everything a few quick revs noticed that it was originating close to where the bell housing is after a closer examination I noticed that the FRIGGIN BOLTS were coming out WTF!!! But after just putting a whole fresh set in it stopped. I'll get to the boost prob tomorrow morning thanks guys for you all really help out when someone is in a pinch.
that's a lot of mods for 277. I would suggest taking it to a rotary specialist.
Youre approaching the problem incorrectly. 277whp is plenty for 10psi on the stock turbos. The modifications are great but its the boost that makes the numbers. Consider that a stock fd will make anywhere from 210-230whp on the dyno.
Well we got boost back the vacuum lines were crossed up and we noticed we had no pressure chamber for stored boost so we used some honda parts to take care of the job for now just a temporary fix to get by till we can go to RotorSports Racing in Kannapolis about 2 hours away from where we're located so hopefully we'll see a substantial increase in power and response after Bryan gets a hold of it. I'll keep you guys updated and if you guys can think of anything else it would be great. Thanks, James
Well I called Bryan up today and unfortunately he's pretty backed up (13 FD's) so I've call him back up Tuesday for further details on how to tackle this issue, but I'll keep you guys posted if you'd like.
PSHT!!! Forget going to Rotor Sport, I'm going to let Ray do his thing up at PF, it sucks that thats not going to happen until around.....Friggin October, but its well worth the wait in the long run. . .I hope.
i am going to to get my car tuned and i have pretty much everything that this car has. I wanted to do 11psi for low boost and maybe a high boost setting on race gas if possibl. Will this work and what numbers should i be expecting with high boost??How how can i go for brand new 99 spec turbos?
Well I look at it this way, if I get up ther and they give me the go ahead then I'll keep the car and add on future investments down the road. BUT if I get bad news i'll either upgrade to single or get rid of the car and a 07 suby sti, good car for a college student in med school, warranty won't let me spend money and thats a good thing. . .for now ;-).
Well it's less than a week now before the big day. Is there anything that I can expect from Ray at PF so I'm not thrown off guard. I have talked to him a right good amount and he seems to be a genuinely intuitive and friendly guy. I guess I'm just nervous lmfao. I figured I'd give you guys an update on that.
