Damn Manny. I hate to hear that. I'm loving the GT35r. I'm just scared that I am going to split the rear iron. From everything I've read, about 400 RWHP is when it could split. I am hoping to get a '91 S5 rear iron from Josh.

No problem Josh. We still have a lot more tuning to do. As far as the question about how much power do I plan on making. The sky's the limit!!!! Actually, the limit is my rear iron.

I want to see at least 400 rwhp. With the setup I have now ( minus the rear iron ) I have no doubt that 400 is a LOW goal

I tune mine myself as well as several others locally (Sam, Josh, etc.) but if you want to go to a professional there's Brian at Rotorsports and there's another guy on the forum named stevenoz who does pretty good tunes who's also located in NC. Expect to pay anywhere from $125-250 for the pros.

p.s. there are a lot of resources and tuning groups for the PFC if you wanted to try and tune it yourself, but it is something that takes patience if you're going turbo as the rotary is like a high maintenance supermodel during her period.
