Re: let make a car specific thread(dsmers)
a few years back when Peter Farrell was doing the various sport compact drag series,and putting out lotsof street cars,people had a lot of respect for them.a frienf of mine's brother had an FD built by Farrell about five years ago that ran high 10's and was his daily driver,but i think he got rid of it......now you just have the Puerto Ricans putting rotaries in everything,but we don't have much of that going on around here either.

Re: let make a car specific thread(dsmers)
that was a little unfair. i was fresh off the dyno, on race gas, pushing almost 40psi. and then it borke hahahaha. i would have rather lost and drove it home that nite then been stupid and have it towed home
a dyno only does so much. to really get it down, it need to be put on the street and tuned. unless you have a load bearing dyno of course.

Like I said before, I'm just giving you shit.. I've done worse. Just be twice as cautious next time.

Re: let make a car specific thread(dsmers)
the tune had nothing to do with the the car going down. im not taking the car to DTM. thats fine if you and jaun want to go there. but i will not take it there. after they trashed the x case in jauns car. i would rather not take my car to a place so careless. not to mention a few months back were baching everyone. sorry guys but its just not going to happen so stop trying.
lets see how you car turns out. a factory ecu flash and 35r land are VERY different. i wish you the best but only time will tell.

Your much better off making power with boost than timing. I'd take two lbs of boost over four degrees timing anyday!

Tuning on a ecu flash with a 35r is hard for other shops... easy for DTM though. Nick holds multiple HP records for flashes on stroked, destroked 2.3, 2.2, 2.1, 2.4 engines, 50trim, 35, 37, 40, 42R turbo's. Almost to the point where you don't need a standalone unless you're doing some SERIOUS racing and not some weekend fun.
Their racing record shows just how careless they really are with multiple 1st places and currently the east coast Time Attack champs 3 years strong... Oh yeah and the NASA TTR Champs second to no one.
But to he his own.
