      Me I'm using kwp2000 to tune the stock ecu. 

      Im probably going to switch to MS3 

      It just takes way to long to make tiny adjustments.

        Awesome! What maf are you using? And cant you simply do partial flashes instead of sending an entire file?

          Stock maf which is good up to 400 hp.

          With the software I'm using you have to pull all the info off the ecu.

          If there is a better way please guide me to the land of 1000hp lol

          Its obdII and as far as I know rk tunes is the only people who will tune it, at a price of 1500 dollars. Which is a rip off, I'd rather put my money elsewhere.

          This is just something fun to drive around town.

            Well the HPX maf would be my next switch, along with e85. Tune it yourself! its a lot of fun. But I swear I read online about partial flashes with obd2. You are using romraider correct? 

            Odb1 tuning is very easy and much cheaper, but in your boat I would go MS3 if you aren't happy with the stock ecu. SOOO much easier.

              Yes  you are correct I am using rom raider.

              E85 is not out of the question.

                Changed some things up on the car.

                Had it dynoed at late model throttle.

                It was with a spare ecu with no revisions stock injectors and fmu 😮

                The numbers were right where I hoped they would be. 

                It was 4th gear pull at 8 psi, the second run was right after so it was pretty hot.

                sorry I didn't save the semen sample to put on the sheet 😦

                  Not bad for such low boost on a stock ecu😛

                    Here I was thinking those numbers seem really low. 
                    That's about 60hp and 50 ft/lb more than stock (taking both from crank hp), assuming on the low side we have 10% drive train loss. 
                    I guess it's not that terrible now that I type that out.

                      I bought and built the car for 2,500 dollars, I didn't have a boost controller installed otherwise mb could've hit 300 

                      185hp is the highest stock I've seen so an extra 60hp plus cool turbo noises. I'm sure I'll be back once I do a legit tune, with much higher numbers.

                        To get an extra 50 hp out of a m52 n/a you would have to do cams intake headers chip m50 manifold and I still don't think you would be there.

                          With that combo you're looking at 220whp-ish.  Your numbers look good for being on a budget!

                              Plus I have low ass compression so that probably robbed me of some ponies.

                              im just making race car driver excuses.

                                Pretty sure thats what they are. My friend has the same set. 16's?

                                    IMG0495.JPG

                                    Im going to be running two 6an fuel lines powered by this pump, any objections?? http://www.highflowfuel.com/i-10388151-walbro-f90000267-450lph-e85-compatible-intank-fuel-pump-with-installation-kit-and-strainer.html?ref=search:http%3A%2F%2Fwww.highflowfuel.com%2Fsearch.html%3Fq%3Df90000267&gclid=Cj0KEQiA39_BBRD0w-_rmOrc__8BEiQA-ETxXQhxxIQt_aEqcC9DwHs37k5iKDXn05HqBy12-Tdp10kaAhxA8P8HAQ

                                    I couldn't find much in searching do you think the return should come out of the end or center to create best flow for all injectors.

                                      That fuel pump is about 3x more than you need for your current power levels, so it should work just fine! 

                                      Any big plans for it now that we are back in "build season"?

                                        Well the egay turblow is making noises like a supercharger so that has to go, I have a gt35 that I rebuilt ready to go in with 60 lb injectors, and a homemade meth kit that I put together for around 100 dollars. The plan is to run pump gas and hit 500 whp by the spring. Then once I want more switch to bigger injectors and e85.

                                          What will you be doing for tuning? 

                                          Maybe the turbo is just morphing into a supercharger!
