Just came back from my first test drive and it's hard to compare the two. It's absolutely ridiculous now. Dyno graphs will only tell half the story in this case.

Excellent!

How does just normal driving compare between the two?  And how much harder is it to get it to stand up initially?

Believe it or not it's actually much better. Precision did come on early and was responsive, full boost was a lil earlier than the efr but had that either on or off feeling during normal cruising, didn't have as much middle ground. If I'm making sense. This one is very progressive and smoother to drive around, always has something down low, you wouldn't think it's even a modded Gtr it's that smooth. This was very unexpected! I change gears and it just picks up right where you left it just continues. It's hard to explain but it's very impressive!! I'll get a vid up of cruising around

I went back to find you put the 9180 on , what Precision did you take off

I had a PTE6262. Just ran out of puff at 430ish, I thought going anything bigger I'd lose the midrange punch which was awesome but yeah now it's even better.

Yeah would be interesting to see how a 9174 would go.

I was waiting on a 9174 for 5 weeks as they had a shortage of some stock or something and just cbf waiting. Chris thought 9180 would be a lot laggier when I dropped it off but yeah good outcome.

And yes you got my Precision specs right lol. You've seen more of it than me [emoji23]

Starting to think I may have been a bit too conservative on a 2.8 Neo with VCT and a 7670 Buraz's result would be bonkers with AWD and 8k rpm to play with!

"Whatever size you think you need, go one up".

Seems to be quite fitting.

8374/1.05 on that thing all day!

That will really be put to the test when my car is running. All well and good to use a fancy turbo on a fancy engine, let's see how they good they work on an absolute nugget engine RB20.

Note: I don't think that 25/26 are really that fancy, just much better than 20's haha

That's a bit harsh :wacko: you really know how to hurt a bloke , LOL

As they say mate, each to their own , gotta luv that response :) 

So, just a small update:

I am flying out to pick up the car tomorrow. I will post some more pics when I get to the shop. Preliminary results on 91 octane are 558awhp. I didn't get the e85 numbers yet, but will tomorrow. Will post dynographs and give an update on the driveability of the vehicle as well.

What kind of dyno is this on?   Good luck for the rest of the tune, keen to hear how it goes - if you are winding it up then this should be a drop in the bucket considering what twin 6758s should be capable of :)

It's a Mustang AWD-MD-1100 dynamometer. I don't entirely know what this means though (in terms of output comparatively to other dynos). And yes, I am hoping for quite a good amount of power so, fingers crossed!

Cheers for the updates - that is actually even laggier than I expected, but of the ilk.  Glad you are at least not having issues building higher boost levels.... is the higher boost/E85 tune still being done today?

641+whp on 91 on a Mustang dyno isn't kidding around, that will be very interesting with E85 in it :O

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
