just think how i feel, i get told two days ago that it would be ready, wait for the call nothing, ring up not finished. apparently theyve been busy and one of the guys is off sick. its strapped down on the dyno (as of lastnight 4pm) and its holding 14psi (i asked can you tell me what power it made and the guy said no you'll have to wait! ahhhhh!) so yeh should be finished today (sounding like a broken record saying that, but i wont be able to pick it up until tomorrow morning grrr). i'll let you know when i find out what its making. im only going to be running 14psi until i get a boost controller. |

Hope you get it back tomoro bro lolz. most people who build schmick cars spend more time actualy building them than driving them sad circumstance......
if you get it back tomorow you should have the run in tune output.. right? if so, how long do you intend to run it in for and when will we know the final output? i dare say this cars going to damage Many egos 
Goodluck~ |

went down there today and hes shut  so wont be until next week. im going to get a bleed valve and hook that up and run something like 18-20psi as the 14psi spring isnt holding for some reason (only holding 10psi but holds it stready just wont hold anymore  )
i'll update the thread when i know more. not going to give a time as its already blown out 2 weeks

lol yeh well um wastegate spring has been replaced again to a 17psi spring (wastegate has been checked for leaks etc but there arent any) chris was supposed to be calling me yesterday. Ive sort of had enough of waiting, need to get it back with a descent tune then i can run it in take it elsewhere and get a final tune done on it (with descent boost 20psi~ so i can post a descent figure)not much left to wait for as hes almost finished now (told him he can rev it out as far as he wants to <9000rpm). |

Why do you need two places to get it tuned? Aren't you happy with how things are going at the current tuner? |

hes just taking too long. i trust him as he tunes my brothers rotary, he just doesnt seem so clued up on a piston based engines (hes a rotary shop). i think the fact that they go up and down is confusing him hahahaha, will see how he goes though then i'll make my descision then. |

What ECU are you running? I think I would base my tuner based on the ECU. |
