technically didnt sell it shes still on my car. After i put the phenolic spacer in, my iat2's only differ at max 10 degrees difference from ambient. and after a long pull only about a 30 degree difference with the 10 gph nozzle im running. I should be able to get some nice timing in her even without E85 we shall see sunday. Im also running a 3 bar map sensor and after joe was looking through some of danews logs when he had his tvs his stock map sensor was seeing over 22lbs, so that 21.7 theory is out the window. Gonna play with the 3 bar on the lsj and see what kinda boost the pcm will actually read

It'll still max out at 21.7 unless you can rescale the map. But that 21.7 will actually be 29.4.

Man, I'm really Interested to see what your Results are, Very Interesting Thread.....One Question though: Why did you personally go with the TVS Instead of going with a LSJ Turbo Swap like most people do? Was it just because of the Reliability?

No i track the car alot and do circle track racing as well so i want the nice powerband the tvs has. Plus i already had all the supporting mods to push the tvs as well and got a good deal on one. Maybe if i get bored of this one day i may go turbo but for now looking for 370whp on a dd front wheel drive will sufice.

The average turbo swap i see on here nets 350 to 400 max usually so ill sacrifice some peak hp for a nice curve

alright lol than i pretty much got the same setup as you. and i upgraded to a lsj map recently so i can see actual readings of my iat2 and boost. but i will see lower than 21.7 boost cuz i'm built and got my head ported.
