This is the most power that i have made from a stock k20 engine with bolt-ons. Super simple set-up, with huge power potential.

I am still so impressed with the power this car made. I don't know if the owner still believes it or not though, lol...

Can't wait to bring my car to you, hopefully it comes close

Definitely threw me for a loop at first. :shock:

All i can say is the tune has totally transformed the car. It's much more enjoyable to drive now. Jeff is just an amazing tuner.

Figured i'd update this with some quarter times and such.

Only made 5 passes at the drag strip with it prior to tuning. Best being a 13.1@104.79 on 205/50/15 BFG's:

Hit up the drag strip not long after the tune. Ran on the same 205-50-15 BFG's. Weighing in at 2352lbs with driver:

I have a pair of 23x8x13 M&H slicks i will be trying out as soon as i replace the stock clutch...

How much did everything run you?

I am so inspired to do this swap! Im addicted to it.

Probably wont be for a long time becuase I'm in college and really have no money.

Look under the curve on the one you linked to. It has more HP & Torque all the way up the power band but then they peak about the same. The one you linked to is still making more power.

Also, stop looking at peak numbers.

I agree with lucky... look at the area under the curves.
