04 Dynoed and Tuned first time.

Hey Guys,
I have an '04 6MT Coupe that I had purchased in february and it was bone stock till now. I had been piecing together parts and finally had them installed.
All I had purchased was the MD 5/16 Spacer, Z-tube and pop-charger, Groundwire kit, Titek testpipes, and the Utec.
I had baselined at 230whp and after the installs and Tune, I had bumped up to 262.2whp. It was all done on the same dyno the same day!!
I was on the Dyno Dynamics Dynamometer. Its supposed to be known as a heart breaker...but it didnt break mine.
I was thinking of some headers and a Y-pipe just to get some more midrange torque.
Any other suggestions or mods I can do to get to maybe 270whp...or maybe even 280?
I definately want to say thanks to Dave at Function:Tuned....he spent the most part of a saturday working on my car and its great. Now I just need to get used to the smell from the TP's.

And for those of you who said i wasted money and could have save for FI....well I only spent about 1700 for everything...including install. So i dont feel that bad.

you might consider shorter final drive gears... it wont do anything to the hp of course (so wont affect your dyno numbers) - but will definitely add zip to your lower and mid rmp driving experience!

congrats, those are very good gains and again proves that u don't need lots of mods to see gains, u just need the right ones. Post up the actual dyno sheets when u get a chance.

Yeah I most definately will. I'll have to do it this evening since I cant scan them at work.
I am just wondering what I can do next to reach the 270 or 280 mark, would headers and Y-pipe do it with another tune?

I feel it more when i get up in the rpms...a lil over 4k, it almost like the vavles or secondaries are opening up...I didnt notice till now...and even with the test pipes, i dont notice the rasp until I get on, but if i drive around normal and just cruise i barely hear it.
