We just broke the Subaru dyno record here with a 536whp pull at 27psi. Then turned it up to 30psi and the clutch let go! More to come

This showed up at the shop after hours last night .

A very good customer of ours who already has an EQ Built Subaru, and EQ Tuned 2013 GTR, decided to pick up this gorgeous 997 Turbo and turn it into a track warrior.

He ordered it from a dealer in LA and had it shipped directly to our shop for the first round of work before a private track day in a week. This round of mods will be basic with some upgraded seats, bar, and harnesses so we can see how the car does on the track relatively stock. After that she's coming back and we start gutting the interior and putting in a nice custom cage, suspension, brakes, and of course some "mild" power mods to get it around 500whp. This should be a fun little project for our first Porsche

What's up Ed! Looks like the shop is doing well these days! Last time I talked to you, you hadn't even gotten a dyno yet. You had to road tune my car...ahh fun times.

That reminds me, I want to have you re-tune my car and I have some clutch related issues I bet you could solve too.

Oh man... the good old days! Sometimes I wish I would have invested in a private drag strip for tuning instead of a dyno

Let me know... I'd be happy to help with you anything you need.

Thanks

EQ Built Borg Warner 8374 Complete:

Here she is after WAY too long!

We finally got all the fueling issues settled with an A1000, surge tank, and all new -10 lines from the back. Of course that worked like a charm and we now have all the fuel we need. We then had set back with the Spec clutch as it completely let go at about 27psi of boost. We then went with the new RPS carbon-carbon twin disc setup to hold the torque. I also got a set of det cans so I could listen to the motor while turning things up and not rely on the factory knock sensor. This proved invaluable for this level of power!

So after all that waiting, some fresh oil, and a final check, we get her on the dyno today and started cranking things up. We ended up at 707whp (601whp Mustang Calibration) at 32psi! The turbo definitely has more in it, but this is a great place for the car to be.

Engine/Power Modifications:


EQ Stage 3 Shortblock (Darton Sleeves, CP Pistons, Manley I-Beam Rods)
EQ Stage 3 Heads (Supertech +1mm Valvetrain, Cosworth S2 Cams, Full P&P)
Borg Warner EFR 8374 T4 1.05a/r Twin Scroll Turbo
Full Race Twin Scroll Header, UP, DP
Dual Tial EWG's
Cosworth Intake Manifold
EQ Tuning FMIC
EQ Tuning Intake
EQ Tuning Catch Can
EQ Tuning Custom Coolant Reserviour
ID2000cc Injectors
Aeromotive Fuel Rails with EQ Line Kit
Aeromotive FPR
Walbro 450lph feeding a surge tank, feeding an A1000 Pump
Tuned with Cobb Speed Density
Invidia Q300 Catback (a bit restrictive at this power level )



Here is the dyno chart with native Dynocom calibration:



And here is the chart with the Mustang Dyno Calibration (.85CF):


And here is a crappy phone video:


Now we just need to figure out what tires will hold this thing!

Thanks

We're only going to 7500RPM for now. It can go to 8k, but the electronic oil pressure gauge isn't working properly so I was playing safe

You know what guys......f**k it. I dont want a daily driver anymore. I want you guys to pack so much power into this tuna can, that when this baby hits 88mph, you're gonna see some serious s**t.

Do you guys have any ewg 1.21 jiggawatt turbos?
