Getting tuned Tuesday! I can't wait to actually have a good tune. I'm really excited to see what my race gas numbers will look like!

Well got tuned today it was fun. My car on a conservative tune made 277whp @18psi. I could have pushed it to 21psi and got about 300 but the tuner didn't recommend it with the mileage on my car which I agreed and I'm more than happy with the car now!

The weather is getting nicer, maybe a little meet up should start to be talked about?

I would have pushed it harder but the car has 150k on a stock motor. I need a new motor then I'll push it harder. I could get around 340-350 with water/meth with my 16g. If I bump it up to a 18g I'll be around or above 400ish. Then I'll be able to keep up with you

Does anyone have a S4 exhaust manifold to turbo gasket in good shape that Brian can buy? He has currently blown 3 out and it's the only thing keeping him from having his car done.

Also J would you know what the FD TPS needs to be set at?

So it sounds like Old Chicago in Iowa City, we need to plan a day that the majority of people can come. Sooo I know the weekend of May 15 is a no go the Subaru Shootout is that weekend and I think me and Brian are going.

Just a couple dates, April 17, May 1st. What do you guys think?

if he keeps blowing stock ones, id advise he upgrades to an all metal unit, and make sure both sides of the flange are even.
