Congrats on the pass, that's damn impressive.

Did you get the full T4 SC61, or is that a T3/T4 style? Also, where do you see full boost?

Way to go Tom. There is too much open area on your car. I think you need to sell some real estate. :D

Give me a call some time, we need to catch up.

Its not like I'm reinventing the wheel, you should need a certian amount of timing and fuel.

Most of the tuning is done with a calculator and then make a few passes, if the mph is up consistantly, then you made more HP. If you know your target hp you can figure the approx injector time for that level.

I've had to do so much with so little in the past, I learned how to make the car go as fast as possible with lower hp, now when I get to put some power down it shows.

I'm sure tuning on the dyno will show some more power, but look at the supras.
My freinds and I have a joke that goes like this; what do a 400 hp supra and a 700 hp supra have in common?

They both run 12's?
I know its a stab, but the supra guys I know love to talk numbers, but never at the track.

Still nice work with what you have, but that's not a stock block. ARP hardware and 2G pistons and no balance shafts. ARP isn't stock, although I guess you did technically use stock 2G pistons. 8) Impressive work for a DIYer, though.

Its all stock mitsu parts, minus the arp bolts/studs.

Those got put in because they are cheaper to buy than OEM mitsu bolts.

As for no balance shafts not being stock, you got me on that one. But theres no other name brands inside the block.

I'll know people have run more whp than I have on JDM shortblocks.
