There's better out there for tuning and idle however! 750 is more than enough for a stock to mild turbo.

I can't believe this was parted out. This is an inspiration for sticking with the stock VF52.

I hope my 08 with a vf52 swap will make some nice numbers like yours.

My set up

Forged Manley piston 99.75 with .020" bore
Acl race bearings
Tomei elh
Ap up pipe
Megan dp
Spt cat-back
Perrin inlet
Perrin intake
Gms ebcs
Ipr top mount
Walbro 255fp
Id1000
Group n engine mounts
Act hd street disc
And it will be open source tuned by jr tuner at P&L Motorsports this week.

I am hoping to make 320+ awhp and same for tq

Don't be surprised if you don't. Most of those mods don't add power and I'm wondering with somewhat of a small turbo what that will do with a more bored out motor. Your setup seems to be ready for a larger turbo and not a <40lbs/min one. Will be interesting with Jr behind the wheel though. I personally wouldn't do dyno runs since that top mount will kill you. If you have nice flat safe highways I'd do it all on the road and use Airboy for the numbers.

How so will the top mount hurt me?

I did have an 18g recently in with a conservative tune by jr an I made 322/352 so I mean I don't really want any more then that because I don't have money for a new trans. My goal is to one day put a six speed and then a gt28

The top mount won't, the top mount on a dyno will. Personally I don't see the point of a dyno. You're in a hot ass area, not sufficient real world air flow, heat soak of everything extra and your making Ecu changes based off of data thats being effected by where you are and what you're doing. If jr tunes on the street and uses airboy your tune and numbers will be way more accurate! In which case your TMIC will get the air flow it needs.

Why bore the motor? Yeah I'm not a fan of a 18g. Most don't put out that much more than the vf52/vf48.

I made killer power on my 18g on my EJ22e setup. 365awhp/369awtq. Also airboys must be used in cordence with a PERFECTLY FLAT ROAD. Otherwise it skews the numbers one way or another.


Who tuned your car last time? I know me and eric worked on it before.

Dynojet no newer ones can't be cheated with out ****ing with temptures to throw the correction factors off

Mustangs can be cheated easily by recalibrating the weight

DynaPacks are easy to **** with also.

That is good for a e22 but that's just medium power. No matter how you got there mid 300's is a FUN car but I wouldnt call it amazing or killer power. Plus 400's to me is killer territory. Weren't you on e85 also? Imagine my number if I was too!!! I'm just saying a 18g isn't anything amazing now a days with what the stock turbos are capable of. As for airboy that's why you find a flat road and do runs in both direction and average the numbers. The end tune will still be better then a dyno.

This posts tune here I believe was a friend that got me started then I finished it up after I felt like I knew enough. My sig numbers was Phatron which I had him look at a few things because my normal drive map was a little bouncy. Ended up being the modified TXS CAI and me opening the front bumper for a ram air affect. The air was messing with my MAF sensor under light throttle and coasting.

I spun a bearing so I did a small built with a bore

Well you only cheat yourself if you or your tuner messes with stuff!! I know you printed me out a sheet before by clicking different correction numbers. You wanted the best looking with the biggest numbers so that's a form of cheating with a dynojet is it not? Specially since the numbers change more than a little.

As for airboy I didn't cheat. I averaged a road, weighed my car with me and correct amount of gas, plugged in the correct tire and wheel size, correct gear, checked the temp and atmos pressure right after the run etc. I'll admit I "cheated" a little doing the runs at night when it was cooler but that's also when there's no traffic. I'll never be convinced airboy isn't the best dyno tool.

In your case, your not one of the guys bragging about a 400whp vf

You know what you make, you know how the car feels, and your ready to get traps.

So regardless of power, you know whats up!! hahah,

have fun with it dude,

EDIT:

Just checked and I was actually wrong. The dynojet I use on SAE, 315 will get you 107, 325-330 110ish. So your dynojet is right on there.
hahah ur so funny

This statement always bugs me. U can't say just one psi!! TQ will be one psi and will be your bottom end. HP will be your other psi on the top end and you have to state that! Unless you have an aftermarket turbo that can run the same psi all the way to redline, u still have to say your full range.

Also one psi is not pushing the same cfm from car to car.

Update with my set up and tune. I believe I ended up with 309hp and 346tq but I don't have the dyno sheet to be sure

How do you mod your stock fpr , and is it safe ?


Also, at what kinda horsepower figures , do I have to start considering an aftermarket/modded FPR ?

You delete the bypass that's in the unit. Fuel goes into the unit but can then leak back out to the gas tank. I'd say its safe because I did it durr.

Stock horse power! These motors can blow for a lot of reasons. One reason I believe is the horrible fuel line configuration and bypass back to the tank. Run a parallel fuel line configuration and a two way fpr and you're gtg.

Can someone tell me what dimension size for the fmic I should be shopping for? ej255 w/ vf52 same as everyone on here. I'm stock piling parts at the moment and looking to boost 18 psi and hit 300hp I just need more top end. The Mishimoto front mount dimensions looks ideal but not too sure.

Default 11 WRX maxing a VF52 on 93, 344hp, 382tq

Hi I was just wondering if you guys could give me some help here so I have a 2008 WRX upgrades are as follows:

Turbo
- [x] IHI VF52 Turbo

Exhaust
- [x] 44mm EWG w/15psi Spring
- [x] PLM 44mm EWG Up Pipe
- [x] Subaru SPT Catback Exhaust w/Muffler Delete
- [x] Invidia Catless Downpipe

Intake
- [x] Nuboosted Performance TMIC
- [x] COBB SF Intake w/Box

Fuel
- [x] DW65C Fuel Pump
- [x] Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator

Wheels
- [x] Touren FlowForm TF03
- [x] Firehawk Indy 500 225/40R18

Misc
- [x] Turbo Blanket
- [x] MAC 3 Port EBCS

I’m going to get pro tuned soon and I emailed Andy @ Neetronics to tell them what I had and to just get a rough estimate of how much power I’d make to the wheels with what I had (my goal is 320-330whp). I was told by the tuner this is not possible without upgrading to a bigger turbo, equal length headers and bigger injectors or meth and that I would only make somewhere around 300 WHP on 94 octane (PetroCanada). So I was wondering after reading this forum seeing people here that made the numbers I want with roughly the same upgrades I have, what do you guys think? Do I need more bolt ons or should I try a different tuner? I don’t want to go spend the money on a pro tune to get disappointed and have to spend more money on parts and retune. P.S I’m in Canada so I’m running Petro 94.

You'll probably make around 300WHP with those mods listed. Biggest thing holding you back is your turbo, the VFs really don't do great anywhere but the midrange. But also remember, comparing and basing judgements of tunes and setup's purely on peak horsepower is not ideal because of how much horsepower numbers can vary dyno to dyno.

My tuner's Mainline dyno measures a 2020 STI at 190-200WHP (it makes 310 @ the crank) but a stock 2020 STI measured on a Dynojet would make easily 260WHP. Lots of variability makes comparing different dynos hard and the data from separate dynos virtually useless for direct, hard comparison purposes.

I would ask your tuner what a stock STI makes on their dyno because the STI has made ~300HP at the crank for 15 years and that will give you a good judge of if that "300WHP" is something you'll be okay with. 300WHP is a lot and can make most people happy if its a daily. Especially because at a later date you could slap an 18G on your setup and probably hit your HP goal.

I know personally the 260 WHP on my EJ205 VF39 bugeye with Headers and 1050Xs feels a lot faster than "260" sounded on paper.

One last thing I'll mention is ethanol. If you have E85 fuel available near you, it is worth getting a quote for a flex fuel tune in my opinion due to just how much better ethanol performs. Easy 40+ WHP gain and prices are pretty good on fuel.

Good luck!
