I don't have to pull timing @ 30psi, I just can't advance it as far as I would otherwise.

the first rule of tuning is not to tune for water injection... tune it to safety and use the water/meth as a back up (unless you have a failsafe like justins car that will limit boost when no meth is being injected ...i.e. u run out)

That's definately nice. One less thing to worry about.

Yea, I'll stay right the hell away from that place. LOL.

I am not sure about that being the first rule. Snow emphasizes that you won't see anything but min results if you don't "tune" for it... I think it depends on what your trying to accomplish. Snow, and other kits, have a lot of safety built in with a low level and low flow indicators. For me, I am just using it as an external fuel source and to be able to run a bit more boost while taking advantage of some of the cooling aspects of the injection. I know people that inject nearly 1200CC or more

Which brings an interesting question, a dyno is a bad tool if it reads in extremes (that dyno and some dynapacks/jets). Does it really matter if you have a "STi tuning specialist"? My guy just knows how to tune from domestics to imports. He just needs to know how to use the controller to make the adjustments.

To him, and I agree, tuning is tuning. I just don't see the point of going to a person that can tune if you have to use some shitty, inaccurate dyno. You can only tune as good as the information you receive which in this case, appears to be pretty shitty.

I also wonder if its that WG and not the MBC. It would have been interesting if you would have swapped out the MBC for another or a EBC. Maybe you could try that now?

I still cannot get over the correction #. I guess he had to come up with some reasoning for those #s. He is going to lose quite a bit of business if he doesn't justify it somehow.

I had a whole long post written out, but I decided against it. I'm done in this thread. Look at my plot and say whatever you want.

I'm sure I will hear the same thing when I break 400hp in my SRT-4, everyone will talk crap and I wont waste my time responding. You all will get the date that I will be at the Valley, then you can go there and watch me blow by with a 10.90 and shut everyone up. lol

My advice, if someones calling you out, prove it and make them feel like retards. If you can't prove it, then you're lying. Anyone thats accused of being a liar wants to do nothing more than clear their name.

Who cares if he's lying or not? If he isn't, great! He's got a cool car! If he is, fuck him, liars aren't worth my breath.

I don't see why people get all worked up over stuff like this. Everyone always trys to call BS on everything someone else says. As you can see I'm not a fan of the drama.
