Yeah, filming with the 2015 WRX and Fiesta ST. He's a super cool guy. You know someone's a car guy when they have tattoos "clutch" and "gas" on the left/right calf lol.

Yep. I am subscribed to The Smoking Tire YouTube channel and watched all their Laguna Seca track test videos and their Fiesta ST upgrade videos. The m3forum guys didn't like when he implied that buying a Fiesta ST was a better idea than a well sorted used E46 M3. They call him Fatt Marah too, haha.

PTUNING prototype return-style swirl pot fuel system with flex-fuel option

ECUTek RaceROM tuned on 10psi WG spring with E75.

200+wheel torque starting at 3k+rpms

Nice!

Did the GTX make more power than the GT on 93 octane?

We have yet not been able to dyno test the GT3076R and GTX3076R back to back on pump gas with the same header in place. I'd expect the power to be fairly similar until we start running higher boost levels, probably 12+psi on E85, race gas, or WMI. This is where the GTX will start to shine. It's overall power capability will obviously be higher too once we really crank up the boost.

Awesome vid! We always love seeing our turbo systems being utilized on track.

Same specs as our 10 psi set-up above.

This time the car was tuned on E70 with our EBCS in place. Our STG 1 clutch couldn't hold the torque at 14 psi, so I had to tune for 13 psi in the midrange and have it taper up to 14.5 psi from 7k to the 8k rpm redline. This kept the peak WTQ under 320 ft lbs, which is where the clutch pretty much said no mas. It was kind of a bandaid way of tuning the boost curve, however, the overall results weren't too shabby.

Had the mid pipe on the ptuning 3" exhaust modified to make it quieter via a straight through center/offset 3" in/out magnaflow muffler in place of their bullet style resonator (also added a small 3" in/out high flow cat right after the flex section).

**Ptuning's first version of this exhaust actually had a similar magnaflow muffler in there but they deemed it to be too quiet (which I like).**

Happy with the results! Cuts down on the drone. Much quieter and now I can really hear the compressor spool!

for anyone running this kit with the 6.2psi tune on 93 and 770cc injectors what is your 0-60 time like now. I'm curious about the lag on this thing, I know I've looked at the dyno numbers but I just want to see the 0-60.
