Stage 3 Treadstone install walkthrough
Oh ok gotcha. I will be Trifecta and HP dual tuned. I want to run at 23 psi. I too have to run the urine that California sells for motor fuel. Yea I am hoping for as much or more torque and like 20 more hp. The torque on mine may come on later though since I have a straight through exhaust.

btw, I looked more closely ay my#s...
On today's dyno I gained about 10-15 ft lbs right around 2500RPM..315ft lbs vs 300ft lbs. The low end torque on this car is pretty amazing.
Here is old chart for reference. The lower line was original tune that came with the car..the upper blue line was the tune at the first dyno. Today's was almost identical.
That's pretty wicked for just a DP and exhaust. Nice job. I may have to rock some Methanol injection later on to increase the power a bit more. Sometimes I hate My addiction to speed. But most of the time I love it.
Today's dyno had DP & Catback..no gains except for that small increase in torque at 2500 rpm. The silencer cut todays results some, so *maybe* I would have eeked out a couple extra hp without it..sacrificing a bit of low end.
Keep in mind that dyno shown had STOCK exhaust and zero bolt ons..bone stock!

At *my age*
For under 350 WHP I would NOT get a pucked clutch. You will impart a HELL of a lot more load on the tranny. I like Clutchmasters..had stage 2 in the Camry SC. If you really want to upgrade..go to stage 3..segmented Kevlar face. It's your call though.
Ok a little update. I got the Trifecta tunable file loaded on today along with the HP tune base file from term. I just went out to datalog it a few minutes ago. It pulls like a beast. It boosts at like 24-25 right now. The BOV is working perfectly, everything looks and sounds great. Term says I need to datalog a few more times. After I'm done logging it, I will hit up the dyno and give everyone numbers. Right now the butt dyno is satisfied, the stock tires are having problems hooking up even without nls from second to third and I currently am still sporting an ear to ear grin.

24-25 Lbs is a little *dicy* though..what's it holding?
The Black Friday sales came and went. I almost bought a DP but got tied up in chores then had to go to work. Now I'm glad I've been so cautious about buying parts, 'cause this thread mentions a $2490 bolt-on kit that doesn't include a turbo upgrade, and a DP/catback that doesn't add ponies. I bought the GMS1 which cost $40/HP. I'm not sure I'll get that kind of return again until I can afford the ZZP turbo upgrade.

It spikes 25 psi max and holds 24psi which is perfect IMHO. VE airflow is very good and I am adding more spark advance to see how much it will take without knocking. Considering the 91 octane gas it working very well actually.

It is basically a free mod that is normally worth about 30 whp.

Yea the numbers should be pretty good but I gotta hit the dyno this week, I'll keep everyone posted.
Well Treadstone is offering some pretty good pricing now. You would have to check the vendor pages and their posts to confirm this but last I checked they were offering like 15% off I think. And piecing a kit like this together would cost quite a bit. Basically these are all supporting mods to be ready if I ever turbo swap.
Yea our gas here is crap but I only run Chevron in the ol girl if I can she seems to like that the best.
The closest gas station to my house charges $0.40/gallon more than premium for E-85?!?!?!
is that b.s. So running E is out for right now.

Sorry I missed your post before. I asked Term about it and hes said 25 is fine. And there are guys who have run up to 30 with stock motor, and I think stock turbo? I could be wrong about that being on stock turbo.

Yea but over the entire year it would add up. I will run race gas before I run E-85 around here anyways. The nearest station for E is like 20 miles away and I can get aviation fuel 5 miles from my house at a little municipal airport... That could be interesting.
