Alright guys we somewhat got a break in the weather which only included a bunch of rain, so we braved the water and got the silver car across town for some dyno time.
Now I want to add this in here. This is our independent test. Borla did not give us this header, we had to buy it. Below are the details in which we did the dyno, the parts on the car, and other information.
Mods on the car that affect the results:
Current Upgrades:
Engine & Exhaust
FT-86 SpeedFactory V1 Exhaust
Borla UEL header
Perrin Overpipe
Invidia catted frontpipe
aFe Takeda Intake
Wheels & Tires
Enkei RPF1 17x9+35 Matte Black
Hankook RS-3 in 255/40/17
Drop Engineering Lug Nuts
(This combo adds more surface area and 1.5lbs per corner over stock)
Fuel
91 Octane
Tune
FA20Club Stage 2
(more on this below)
The pulls we did are done in 4th gear. Sampling started right around 3000rpm.
The car does have a stage 2 tune from FA20Club. The below image is what the car did with a stage 2 tune out of the box by adding the Borla UEL. This is no revisions yet, and a tune we had on the car from back in December.

After doing some pulls, sending the data in to FA20Club and getting a tune back this is what we got compared to a stock car.

The stock dyno we did back in August was a poor sample so we overlay'd it to one that was the K&N drop in filter dyno.

As you can see the torque dip is significantly reduced and almost flat now. FA20Club mentioned that had we been able to get 93 octane fuel in the car we would have seen more gains, but 91 is all we get here in Des Moines, so it had to do. I'm excited and happy with the new torque curve, especially with autocross and track season almost here for us in Iowa.
