Wheel bearing is in fact being installed tomorrow....dyno coming shortly. Yes, it's been pushed back a couple times. It's all good, I've been in NY for 2.5 months, not getting back to the G in CA until the 13th anyways.

Dyno'd today with Turbo and Osiris, of course
,...not the highest numbers. I'll explain why in a minute v

[Dynojet 224]
Turns out after a little troubleshooting, that we(I) forgot one MAJOR thing...I've been in NY for almost 3 months...the gas is 3 months old..holy crap. Tomorrow we will fix this hopefully.

Nope. Looks like it is what it is. I'll get to drive it on thursday. The tuner and fabricator had two different opinions, so to say, on what it should/could be performing at. I believe it will be safe at the current level, but like everyone I wanted to push the fine line of the envelope, to get 400whp. It's about 8psi now, maybe could handle more safely, maybe not- I'm no tuner. But I do trust mine.
Several factors may have contributed to the 340/340 hp/tq:
Bad/old gas? Maybe, but after timing reviews, and others past experiences, it doesnt seem so.
Hot/humid day: probably somewhat.
Small turbo: most likely

360/365 believe. Same shop, different day. He also did not have revup, BUT he did have pNp work, no air filter, clutch & flywheel, grounding kit, and aftermarket pullies.
Aimen and I both base lined @ 265whp on different days of course, but I had 237tq & he had 250tq

Maybe I'm reading the graph wrong- plausible. But as soon as you go above your peak level boost there is a lull in hp/tq. It starts to go back up as boost goes down. Is that the wastegate or is that your turbos hitting their limit? I am just trying to learn a bit more about interpreting the graphs- I'm not giving objective feedback
I'm going to have Seb at SpecialtyZ check out some issues I've been having with SLICK tomorrow morning, there's very few people I trust to work on her....so I'm going to the best!

So nice to be able to trust a shop like SpecialtyZ....!
Jninja, you can pick up your OB coupe at SpecialtyZ, she's done ready to take home. All she needs now is a bath and some TLC. SLICK had some major noises going on in her suspension, within a few minutes Seb discovered one of my swaybar rear end links was loose....again. They checked my entire suspension which I appreciated, every thing's good/tight!
