I'd love to see 600 but I think that might be ambitious. My car is an m6 though so it's possible.

Got her in to tune yesterday. Tuner got her up on the dyno and did his thing. Got it running like a champ while still being pretty safe. Conditions in the shop yesterday sucked bad. Ambient temp were almost 100° and humidity was in the mid 60's. She ended up making 525/530ish. After that he took it out on the street to clean up some drive ability and it all went down hill. Suddenly started running like absolute crap. Idled rough and had major hesitation. Decided to call it a day and start fresh today and see what we find. Tuner dug into it and found the problem. One of the rear 02 sensor wires that we tucked up in the engine bay ended up on the header and melted. Shorted out and fried the pcm causing all the sudden problems. Had to order a new one today and luckily found it on Amazon



for under $200. Hopefully when we go back in and work it some more she'll make better power in colder air. We're also probably going to get a bit more aggressive with the tune.

Yea when we get it back on they dyno in better weather and tune a bit more power in it I'll have him make it SAE. I just want to be able to drive it. The sound of the blower with the smaller pulley is amazing. Sounds like a beast just driving it around normally.


Yea the ambient in the shop was just shy of a hundred degrees. Tuner also didn't know I had a 160 tstat so didn't turn the fans on early. He was struggling to keep temps down.
