^its all good, I appreciate and respect you greatly for the support First, and I'm sure English does as well. Lucas and everyone at English racing has always treated me with the utmost respect and have always produced great results as far as I am concerned. They tune some of the fastest machines around, period! Just look at the ETS gt-rs and Jeff bush's 1g, freaking amazing!
I understand that urban had a different experience with them and I don't mind him giving his experiences. I hope he did get his setup to +650 whp on c16, that would be a fun ride. Could you tell me by chance, does that put him as one of the highest whp cars with the hx40? I'd love to see a dyno graph for a comparo. That's some great work for a 35r sized turbo. But I guess, hell, look at what talondave is doing! That is potent!
He could be right, I might come back with high 3xx whp, but I would suspect that won't be the case unless something gives. They already tuned me to ~400 whp and ~400 ft lbs, I know this setup is far more capable than my evo 3 in terms of flow, so it should be fun to watch.
I invited everyone in to throw out some numbers, thank you to everyone that has, I'm in it for the journey more than for the end result. If I know one thing it's that there is ALWAYS someone faster, I just want to give them some competition
Urban hasnt put down 650+ he is just claiming the numbers without any proof....but I believe the hx40 record stands at 685awhp. And no disrespect to urban because the second he proves his numbers on a dyno ill be the first to congratulate him, but until then he needs to stop making all of these unsubstantiated claims.
She made 527 awhp and 442 tq at 26 psi, sorry no pics of graph right now. She hits full boost by 3500 rpm and full torque by 3800 rpm holding steady till 7700. I have her home now and will be doing a bit of modding in prep for a retune later. English feels that an electronic boost controller will open her up on top a little and are hoping to hit that 550 I wanted. As for cranking her to 40 psi and going for 600, I don't think Im going to try as I honestly dont care to hit it, I wont be running it on the street, and Id rather have it back in one piece and running like she is! She hits hard and maintains well all the way to 7700. Im content! Ill post pics of the graph up after the visit for the attempted 550! Thanks for looking guys!

Yeah thats exactly what I am going to use. It surprises me as well, I really thought that it might have more in it. Do me a favor and prove that she can get up further!
What kind of airflow are you seeing? Post a log, it'll tell far more of the story. Your power is very nice for low boost, but there should be much more in it.
Well I'll see what I can do. Seeing your results and Spencers kinda makes me want to ditch the possibility of doing an exhaust housing swap or HTA upgrade to get more power out of my setup. I'm thinking if I decide that I really want more power I should just put my HX52 on or get a 3586HTA/GTX.
