Damn that little spring! Nice conservative power man, should be hella fun!
Only thing that is a little shocking to me is how much higher the boost threshold of the 6262 is compared to the 61mm. Billet wheel you'd think it would spool faster, or at least make better/equal torque when off boost.
Do you think you'll throw a stronger spring in there and retune, or just leave it as-is for a while? Seems like an easy fix for another 30+whp, would get ya over 400 pretty easy.

Nice car, Nice numbers where did you tune at man?

DB Performance, you know as it says on the dyno sheets. That is where the majority of us go.

So when you mention you want to break the 420 hp, is that the highest HP 4g54?
The highest I've seen without a solid billet head is 721 (back halfed car)
I think the highest on pump gas is in the high 400's

Boo the shitty little spring.
Congrats looks even more fun than last time. Go get some damn real WG springs (24psi) and go back.

My heater core leaks, and I just broke the transmission (just bearings, still drivable), but either way I need to take it out and put a new one in there. And the heater requires removal of the entire dashboard. It's an old car with problems. But it's good and quick. I might leave it right now and fix the problems, then later I'll come back for more. I'm going to work on a nice header, stiffer spring and other things.

Looking good Andrew. If you went with a stiffer spring closer to your target boost you might gain back some of that spool-up as the wastegate would be held shut longer/harder.
Man this car has come a long way from where it started, excellent work.

Thanks Josh! It's been fun, expensive, and it still feels slow! Haha. I still like it though, and with a little reworking, should have a torque peak at higher RPM, and eventually, if I'm lucky I'd like to run over 25psi (30 would be my goal). 425whp at 25-26psi would be great. Some guys in Florida made 510whp with like 40psi, haha. I don't know how but they pulled it off, but usually it's right around 30psi for the 500 mark.
