my friend just got his car retune by tony1 he made 272whp 194lbstq @18psi
setup:
b16a: 8:1 pistons eagle rods i dont know what kind of pistons...and i think theyre eagles...
turbo: inlinepro mani, tial wg, supposely sc61...2 3/4 downpipe 3" exhaust drag intercooler drag pipin, 780cc injectors, 255 fuel pump
hondata...

the previous tuner made 271@15psi....-jotech-

i think tony said that his intercooler is **** because the temp was like 130degrees....im not sure tho somewhere around there....

tony1 is a good tuner he tuned my ****
i just wanna know whats wrong with my friends setup?

any help would be appreciated

 

intake temps are kind of high . mine only get that high at idle in the middle of the day(in texas heat)

 

I would have to say the low compression and intercooler is what's hurting you.

yeah thats what tony said

 

Has this motor's compression been checked? Leakdown?

i dont think it has been checked...how low is too low on a 8:1 compression?
the car was tune by jotech and made 271 but the car drove like ****...kept shutin off...that was like 4months ago or so then he just got retune by tony1 yesterday

 

kept shutting off?

why 8:1 comp? thats awfully low.

I would check it to rule that out. Not just that but perform a leakdown as well. Compression should check out between 150PSI - 170PSI. No more than 10PSI variance between cylinders. Yes the compression is very low but I think something mechanical is wrong. And I am sure the final static compression a little more than 8:1.
