Careful now we can't have them learning the new innuendo.

And I have dinner plans tonight with Chey and Tyler. But I thought you wanted more for when you did tails for others.

I really only need one extra set but I'm interested if they are on the dirty cheap.

Hey Jeff where did the pictures from those who won go? I would really like the one of my son and his goofy smile.

For NA... eh not a huge deal. But I personally prefer to go with a tuner that has pushed a limit and blown something up. Joe is working with another tuner that has quite a bit FA20 experience in both NA & Boost (he daily drives a supercharged FA20 afaik). They are using Ecutek right now. I don't know what their plans for OFT users is at this point though. If you talk to him about it tell him OFT has a ROM defined for TunerPRO as Joe is familiar with that.

Hopefully travis doesn't take this post offensive, I don't mean it that way in any way. I would say the same towards any tuner new to the scene. I don't know extensively Travis's experience but I know he has been tuning subaru's a bit over the past few years (i think?).

So summary, if your okay with working with someone thats new to the platform he is definitely an option. And thats not a bad thing. If you want someone who had pushed the limits on the specific platform call Joe. You are more than welcome to tell him Marin gave you his recommendation.

Hopefully this helps!

No Offense taken.
Great points.
I didn't realize Goodspeed was tuning this platform in-house.
They are not listed on ECUTek's site as a tuner.

No, i don't have any boosted experience on the FA20, But it's not much diferent than a normal Subaru.. just have to be weary of the CR and getting the Direct Injection right. I'll tune customers that are boosted after I boost my own. And it's on my short list.

Yeah that direct injection just swings it a tad bit. Especially since the DI isn't as consistant on the high output as a port system. I'll be jumping in and screwing around with that soon as well =x

Tip: be careful with that E85... easy to pass MBT with DI alcohol =x The knock wall is basically non-existant.

That is very true NA. I could take my LS6 all the way to 31 Degrees of timing no knock but it sure as hell didn't make any more power. 27-28 was the sweet spot on the Dyno.

Just to put into perspective.... That was close to the timing I had on my car with boost... E85 is such a resistant fuel, and then you have the DI system dropping cylinder temperatures like crazy and distributing the fuel nicely... Its a recipe for disaster haha. Def need to have that tested on the dyno for safe limits. I opened a "bearings thread" and we got onto the topic, in which someone posted charts of passing MBT and the cylinder pressure effects you get are pretty drastic.

Also note i didn't tune my car so I dont know where MBT was for me.

It is @SMOKETREES. Yes Alex. I'll gather more clips and make another with a bunch of freeway rolling shots
