The Dinan Elite measured 415hp and 480lb/ft of torque on an otherwise stock car. The JB4 tunes a bit more aggressively than that and measures at about 425/495, with the BMS intake pushing it even...

Well, you are missing something big -- you're comparing max power numbers. We all know boost tapers off towards redline anyway, and we're okay with that.

You'll still downshift, it'll just be faster when you do. The reason being that it is hard to let yourself stay out of the high torque zone on ESC. You always just want to go the fastest you can. If...

I have also heard another spacer company recommend 95ft/lbs for the spacer to hub connection, but I would recommend around 75-80 or so for the locks.

If you want to bring back the rush, turn the ESC off for about 10 minutes and take some WOT pulls. Then flip it back on. It'll help you remember how much better the car is with it on :)

I'm no pro -- but that looks pretty good to me. Will probably look even better on your next tank.

I'm still running 0w20 oil -- has any on E85 switched away from it?
