as far as i know, it's the ONLY AWD dyno on oahu.

plus super in hawaii gets one more octane compared to cali (92 vs 91) for a little more comfort/safety.

yeah it pulls very nice in the low to mid. it's amazing what twin scroll turbo and MIVEC can do. now if only Suby will bring a twin scroll and dual AVCS combo to the USDM market.

oh and thanks again for taking care of the car for me at the dyno in my absence!

nice numbers! Do you have any plans to modify the TC-SST since you probably are exceeding its max design torque of 347 lb-ft?

no plans for the moment. I may end up doing the AMS tranny cooler around tax time. other than that no real SST upgrades have really hit the market. I will wait till there is a proven clutch pack upgrade, till then i will keep the TQ under 350.

not to be a downer, but do those numbers seem kinda low for all those supporting mods? I went with my friend to dyno his completely stock evo X gsr with a "z-chip" aka piggy back mail tune, and he put 312 hp and 320 hp on the rad motorsport dyno. I guess it must be more a matter of saftey lol - his afr was spot on but who knows? also the stock turbo on the evo X is a 20g lolz

the SST looses more HP/TQ to the wheels than the GSR 5spd does. there are plenty of side by side comparisons of MR's vs GSR's with same mods on same dyno's that will show MR's doing less HP/TQ than GSR's. on top of that I am sure we can agree every tuner and dyno day conditions are different.

ahh that explains it, ya and there are an exasperating amount of variables to take into consideration on test day. either way though you can't argue with 300 + hp to the wheels

We get 93 here with the option of 94 at certain stations for only a .10 to .15 premium. But that's neither here nor there nor do I understand why there are differences from state to state.

I'm interested to see how long the tc-sst or whatever that tranny's name is will last with more power.
