looks good. Did you see how the torque curve was after it was tuned. little turbo not much up top 5000- 5250rpm max and grab next gear when WOT

if you get a chance take I down the strip. stock ones are between 13.2 to 13.6 depending on the driver. see what time you can get down the strip. GTX 3582 will make it feel a lot faster;)

I wouldn't push much passed 300 on a stock turbo if it where me. The ceramic wheels aren't really cut out for it & the snail's are a lot smaller on the F series to the B series. I'd be happy with 300

I realise that but is it normal to drop 5 pound a few pound I can understand but 5 major loos of power im thinking of doing the flapper mod with accuator and taking to another tuner as wasn't really happy with overall service also is it normal for the car to idle rough on cold start for the first 30seconds or so

Blacktur8oute, I had the same issue. when starting the car in the mornings, I had to wait at least 10 seconds before I could do anything.

The car was idling rough. even if I put the foot on the accelerator and tried to give it a bit more RPM to about 1000, it would sputter and almost die out.

I spoke to the tuner and they wanted to take the car back in for an overnighter.

Then Rob said he changed the scaling for the car and uploaded a new tune file onto the Xcal3.

We uploaded the tune and the car has been awesome since.

Some FG's react differently to scaling and some are happy as. Who tuned the car out of curiosity?

Id do the actuator if you don't want to change the turbo. My BF use to drop 5psi in the top end with the standard turbo. Did flapper and actuator and it holds perfectly now.

Blacktur8ute what power did your car make stock on that dyno? The little turbo will struggle up top which will result in less boost higher in the rev range. Certainly an actuator will help. If the car isn't idling properly with ID1000's then the tune needs adjusting. It should idle perfectly cold or hot. What city are you located in?

A bigger turbo would be nice. Certainly fill that drop off in the later part of your graph.
