FMIC and Retune Today
 

Had a Process West FMIC installed last week and a Verso re-tune done, who said FMIC's are laggy.

The darker lines are the tune with the FMIC, more torque, power is limited as the turbo is at it's threshold.....

One issue fixed is the car with an oversize CAI was running way too rich, the smaller (closer to standard) size CAI made tuning alot easier for Sean.

Cool - So full boost around 4000? You're running a big turbo yeah .. Tempts me to go FMIC as well, don't think i need to however for a 34. Good TMIC setup should suffice, unsure as if i'd see any gains, as i run STi TMIC, auto-waterspray etc.

I'm looking forward to getting my car back on the dyno again to make sure all is running alright. How does your car fair for a daily driver? I almost enjoy having a bit more lag than the TD04 as you can drive around much more sedately out of boost, where the TD04 always wants to get up and go due to the smaller exhause housing.

Run I.D also says new clutch - did it contribute to impressive result?

Good Point, may have helped the torque figure, Sean said old clutch was slipping right at the peak of power/torque!!

all done at 4000 sweet! Must pull pretty farkin hard now! New clutch is always going to be required sooner or later. My stocker clutch wasn't holding at the top of 5th gear run according Sean. What clutch did you get?

congrats gav, you must be stoked with that

I got it 2nd hand off Oversteer, is a Exedy Sports Tuff from memory, running a extreme clutch plate, 2800 pounds of clamp. It is a big improvement on the standard STI clutch, pedal feel is heavier but it grips great and no slip!!

great to hear thanks for the feedback as this my next mechanical mod I suspect.
