hey guys, as some of you know I got my car tuned today with the ems s2.

aem sent out an engineer to help with everything, they made a ton of pulls, vtec didnt work at 1st, then they figured it out..

11-12+ pulls later after getting everything to work right

on 5psi car made 300rwhp

15th or 16th pull

on 8psi car made 348rwhp (very hot turbo at this point)

thats all they can do till i get my clutch

at 8psi it made 267ft of torque on the 1st pull then the clutch slipped bad...

2nd pull they dragged the rpm past the torque curve and was still slipping not as bad though...

and made the # listed above

they didnt fine tune/or make an aggressive tune because of the stock clutch...

there are many bugs in the series 2 ems, they are going to be worked out..

getting a clutch and water/meth kit, then going back for a real tune..

But to be honest im damn happy with almost 350rwhp with a slipping clutch in 95+ degree weather..

 

Cool man! Congrats. Enjoy the car.

 

Nice! Keep us updated. I've been keeping an eye out on your setup.

 

r u seriously on stock clutch?

 

what turbo you running? When did you see full boost? What dyno?
Not to be mean but pretty much anyone who is going to do a turbo will need a clutch, look at the competion clutch stage 4. 6 puck.

Real good number for the amout of boost your running.

 

ok, your cobra FTMFW! god KB blowers are kick ass. friend is putting one on his 09 stang soon. stock EVERYTHING will belt out 500whp

 

I thought the same thing...who does all that work...KNOWING the stock clutch is going to limit you, then waste everyone's time and your $$ with a tune.

 

i agree, why wouldnt u get a clutch then tune it?

 

I own my car, but its a marketing project for my company. so we were in a hurry to get things rolling and figured we would be fine on 5psi for now...anyhow, ACT sent me a clutch out today.
