Yes i can , sad but true. You need to get a GOOD, self calibrating wideband like an AEM, plx300 so you wont brake ringlands like i did 3 times. Fuel cut is actually saving your butt right now i suggest you take it easy until you get a wideband. I was running an LC1 and you have to calibrate it manually. On the dyno i was doing 12.7 afrs and in my MAFT PRO/LC1 It said 11.7. I was a full point off and BAAAAM, all of the sudden my car sounded like a freaken WRX. Learn from our mistake and correct them. As yo can see your car/set up has alot of potential, good luck.

Thanks for the advice guys, but I don't run the car too hard, I usually stay at 10 psi. I'm looking to get an FI\C 6 or 8.

I'm running an HDI SBI-C eltronic boost cotroller and no boost creep issue.

Yes.. Do not do that again!!! I have the same turbo and I hit 15 lbs with no tune!!! Bad idea... I cracked 2 ring lands... now I need a new set of pistons, bearings and a bore :(

I feel your pain x3 :( except my bores were still good. All i did is bought a honing tool that attaches to a drill and honed it out so new rings can seat. A good tune would of save most of us running stock engines at around 400 ponies. A wideband is a MUST, to see were your afrs are at all all times.

I'm looking foward to break 400whp with my 57-trim, With tuning and DDP and 3-4 more pound pounds if boost, it's a really realistic goal.

From little info I could get, on a stock engine, 17-18 psi and supporting mods will break the 400whp mark.

I was just always under the impression that max output with a 57 was 375... makes me want one.

I hope we won't be reading another rebuild thread when he decides to push it. Components may have already been compromised...

Good numbers so far though! ;)

how are you hitting fuel cut with the lexus afm and 550cc injectos only at 15lbs? I thought it raised it to around 20 or so

Larger turbo = more flow, boost = resistance to flow. AFM measures on CFM (actual flow) not PSI, you can work the rest out yourself...

Nice numbers, what's the response like on the street? got any video's?

FYI - Standalone is the only way to go.
