So a bit of an update
I am now tuned! I do not have a .pdf at the moment, but I do have a print out that I might try scanning later. After the cam install/valve adjustment, I took it to Boost Logic here in Austin and Justin (Tuning Concepts) tuned it for me and gave me a pretty good deal. I made 216whp (STD) and 152wtq (might be 154..). Dropped vtec to 4300rpm (and had vtec changed to engage w/70% throttle applied for them corners) and fuel cut increased to 8600rpm. It feels awesome! I need to get some footage with my gopro. Just need to fix the rattle I'm getting with the diffuser and catback.
I ended up not feeling the amount of view I lost using the apr gt3 mirrors while sitting in a bucket seat and harness so I sold them really cheap since they were painted. I have since sold the APR splitter and purchased a track splitter from Wasp. It's sturdy as hell! I did the 4" option with the 2" side extensions, and I also picked up the tire spats but they need some slight adjusting as you may see in the photos. I have also installed the Personal Grinta with a WB hub and nrg 2.5 - that suede feels really nice! I picked up the Lowpro Aero side splitters and I gotta say probably the best ~100 bucks spent imo . And I also bought a used nfr hood with the DIY vents with that really nice aluminum mesh and had it painted recently.
I have not mounted the gtc200 wing yet as I'm really considering getting a spare trunk due to the warping that may, or will from what I've read, will occur.
Anyways, thanks for reading - here's some pics!
I also took this today at some random free car show (mostly old domestic) - batmobile. had tags too
black ap2 is a cool guy, Ralph. i believe he's on here.
I wanted to give a shout out to Bryan at Wasp Composite. He has the best customer service I've ever had and he made a really badass splitter for me.
