i really think before you go stating what you are saying REALLY educate yourself on his background... just saying.... I don't know vit personally, but he has tuned a friend of mine's civic so I know his work. But even one tune doesn't speak for ALL of his work he's done.

You can ask @Ultramaroon how it "lays it down" on the street. Plenty of joy rides have been given in this car, Rofl.

Thanks for your input brother......

500hp at 15 to 16 pounds may I see a dyno graph on such a accomplishment that's impressive.

You know I'm not going to get in a huge debate with you, I could care less, only 2 facts remain
1 you keep pushing 500hp on a stock motor and you will be paying the piper at some point.
2 I told you last time I would gladly come to your track line up next to your monster FRS with no traction control only on a boost controller and show you tail lights. I'm even willing to put 1000 up to win and another 1000 saying at no point will you ever be in front of me.
I'm sure this is where I will start hearing the crickets sing just like last time....

Dumb question are you using the OFT or ECUTEK? And do you tune for this car or is this just a pet project :)

This thread is full of dyno sheets. There are plenty of tracks in my local vicinity if that's what I'm so inclined to do. Putting down 500hp on the street is a joke, zero smoke. The right tire will hold that power level and much more, lol.

What are you running on your car, 205 tires made out of a rock compound and peddling your car like Fred?

You really should see what the bullshit coming out of your keyboard reads like in the real world, it's not remotely possible to take you serious -- it's troll level bullshit.





LoL :happyanim:


OFT is garbage. We use ECUTek exclusively unless people want to step up to my MoTeC M150 programming.


Right now the car is down on E20 as I've been driving it in areas where there are no E85 stations, so making about 12psi of boost (~340whp). The car made ~490 on 17.8psi running out of fuel on E77 before I installed the fuel return and the clutch slipped on the dyno.. 15-16psi makes 460-470whp (Over "500" at the crank for the trolls as our stock baseline is 150whp here on the 200hp rated car).

The ONLY reason this motor doesn't see 18-20psi now that I have a fuel return is the clutch (ACT 6 puck) doesn't hold 400wtq+. I'm at the limit of the clutch -- and as it's a street car, I'm not really interested in stepping up to a twin at the moment.

I've said this a few times to the "borrowed time" comments -- who cares? This is an R&D car. If the motor pops, sweet, then I'll crank it up to 650-700 on a built bottom end. Til then I'm enjoying the car and we're getting a lot of useful feedback and we can see how things fair for your AVERAGE FT86 owner that daily's the car and wants to enjoy some "big" power from time to time.

We do know from the forums the fa20 does bend rods after a point and some outright break. Although tuning a stock motor to hold it together for that long takes skill.



It's really to bad Subaru/Toyota released the cars with such junk valve springs and rods, regardless of the CR.
