Well after waiting a couple weeks for a part or two to arrive at my house I got my car tuned and Im rather pleased and surprised with it. Howard down at RLZ did an awesome job with it and tuned it conservatively just like I wanted. I couldn't ask for anything more after what it made on there dyno which is proven to read lower than others Im more than happy. Now Im probably gonna need a clutch though . Here is a rundown of the mods and the dyno plot

Bone stock JDM B18C
Blox Intake Manifold
Drag Manifold
T3/T4 not sure on the specs
Turbosmart 35mm wastegate
Big Precision injectors Howard thinks they are 750cc's which were shipped to me out of carelessnes. I ordered 550cc's
2.5" downpipe and mandrel exhaust
Exedy Organic clutch that isnt gonna last Im sure

My bad it said you could post topics about tuning in here as well i thought. Ill post further dyno plots in FI

11SEC CIV

nice job at 8psi, what ems are u running?

ringgold

It was tuned with Chrome by a kickass tuner. Yeah you cant beat an 8psi conservative tune that made 279whp on a dyno that reads 20-30 hp lower than most I was more than surprised it did that and I think a few others were as well. Thanks man

Nice #'s, what was your total timing?

SpeedingHatch

Ill trade you my 550's for your 750's if you want

Nice numbers too

These injectors are fine man thanks anyways. Im gonna keep them for future use since they are only at like 43% duty cycle on this current tune

Howie does it again! Congrats on your #s man.

Very nice to hear. If I ever undertake this project, they are who I will be going to to have my work done, esp Tuning.

Yeah I think ole Howard was slightly impressed with the numbers that my setup made. I know his dad was surprised Another cool thing that I have been realizing is that I think I got lucky with this swap in my car and got a LSD tranny although all signs point to not having one. Weird thing is both tires always spin and I mean always; never once has just one spun.

why does your torque curve look funky?

Howard is a great tuner.....I live only minutes away from RLZ/Speed innovations. He tuned my EF hatch. Great choice of tuner and also great numbers from a stock motor.

I honestly dont have a clue. Maybe the clutch was slipping a little or something? Howard would know more about that than I since I dont know much at all about the tuning aspects of my car.

What happened to your SR?

it looks like you had a huge boost spike or something

Do you mean what happened to my SE-R? If so I sold it to someone who I was stationed with.

Nope boost held pretty good between 7-8psi on every run. I was worried about boost spike myself since Im running a Drag manifold but I have a good wastegate and I ran the wastegate vacuum line from the compressor side of the turbo instead of from the intake manifold somewhere. I was told that on Dynapacks that the torque curce tends to look like mine or something?
