So after getting the car back, i added on a turbosmart manual boost controller to bring the boost up a little to around 8-9psi. cleaned up some of the cruddy work the dealer did, and took it right back to speed inc to try and get things corrected.
So it turns out the dealer really screwed up and i was glad there was only 100 additional miles on my car compared to when i traded it in. Even though i added a few things to give the car more power before i traded it in, The initial dyno pull showed well under 500whp of power and the car was running so rich it almost had gas dripping out the tail pipes. so this is all that was different compared to the previous dyno tune so you can see the result difference.
*KB BAP
*BOOST CONTROLLER
*NEW MAF SENSOR
*AND NEW DEALER INSTALLED TURBOS
these are the results
Overall i was happy and the car was driving much better then it was before i traded the car in, so in the end i am extremely happy.
that she was back in my possession for GOOD, i was able to continue the modding... the next thing to go was the clutch. I was lucky to have the stock one last me a little over 20,000 miles so i really couldnt complain. After weeks of research and jumping between dozens of forums i was able to make a decision and go with a MCLEOD RXT TWIN DISC clutch kit. 1000hp capability... should hold up better than stock ;-)
Then shortly after that i figured since i was going to have the trans out, why not upgrade the shifter. The stock shifter really isnt that bad at all. But anything can be improved in reality, so i came across an awesome deal for a short shifter that i have been eyeing for awhile so i also added this to the collection around the same time as when i ordered my new axles as well. So i picked up a LG MOTORSPORTS shifter and DSS 1400hp axles.
The shifter is awesome because it only reduces the throw by about 25%. The nice thing about that is its just enough to give it a better feel, but not too much to where it requires more force to shift. So in my mind it was a perfect setup.
