Put the car on the dyno for a baseline. Strong start. Downpipe goes on tonight or tomorrow night and I am starting the tuning process Thursday or Friday.

Edit: Added very quick and dirty video.

Nice! Which downpipe did you go with? What are your future plans beyond tuning?
Titan Motorsports for the downpipe.

I want to do charge pipe, heat exchanger, and cold air intake in the near future. Then suspension (YTB), wheels/tires (YTB) and brake upgrades (lines, pads and fluid). My first race in her will be this Sunday, weather permitting, at a local Autocross event. Followed by some circuit racing at Blackhawk Farms, Autobahn Country Club and Road America at some point this "season".

Hopefully at some point next year I'll upgrade to the Pure800 turbo which will complete my power upgrades.

I also want to do cosmetics but they aren't my priority. I'd like to replace the rear diffuser, side skirts and front lip with carbon pieces and probably add a carbon lip spoiler.

Sounds like you've put some thought into this...:thumbsup:

I'm heading to Blackhawk on July 4th weekend, but this season is certainly a bit different.
True story. Look forward to seeing you out somewhere if you are in the Chicago area. I'm in the Quad Cities so I'm sure we'll cross paths at some point.

She's getting there! With a little help from a friend we were able to get her dialed in a little with the new DP. Haven't started to crank any of the dials yet, but we are getting it in-line. I can't wait to really dig into this platform.

In the you can see the DP is really working and the car is having a tough time keeping boost under control because the exhaust is so much more free. In the 2nd and 3rd log you can see we are getting closer but still have some work to do.

I'm still a newb to this platform but I'm really excited about it as I'm really starting to understand it.

Haven’t gotten any more tuning done yet, but did run the car at Cordova International Raceway on Friday and then Autocross on Sunday.

I think I can break into the 11’s on the stock Super Sports if I can figure out how to launch consistently.
