Hey- Stumbled upon your build and saw you're in Sunrise, FL. Or at least that's where the shop is. Would be cool to see what you've done to it in person.

I'm in Weston, FL. Very close to that shop. If you see an all Black on black MCS'15, that's me.

Sounds good I'm actually in Parkland and work in Coral Springs. Car is really fun to drive now with just under 300 hp to the wheels. Very complicated build but there is none like it out there.

Dyno chart? More pics? The turbo looks quite low in the car, how did you route or scavenge-pump the oil drain? I'd also like to know how you dealt with the BOW and WG, since they're quite different from OEM to Garrett.

Stock ECU tune, or is it "stock ECU, tuned"? GTR2871R should be a good match for the 2.0L since you plan on pushing it further I assume. I'm curious what the boost threshold is nevertheless now that you've gone to a bigger non-twin-scroll turbo.

Low rpm boost is useless for big power. Full boat at 3900 rpm. Running currently 19 pounds of boost. Turbo is low had to drill into the oil pan for the return.

Not cheap. Cost of the tune was supposed to be $1200.00. Ended up costing me $2000. I repeat it was a lot of work, we had to make changes to the program and then test and each time we had to remove the ecu which if you don't know is next to the battery. Worth every penny.

This kind of information is priceless and lets us know what this platform is capable of. If others do the same, there should be some impressive strides made.

Seems like alot of work for gains you could have gotten with just the Burger tune.
