OK, I'm floored.
Mellon e-mailed me a new graph. He didn't use the last runs for the graph. Here's the final:  Ported parts getting almost 30 awhp & awtq after tune! I'm sure that's because of other mods and stock wouldn't see such a return. I think Buschur says up to 20hp improvement. OK, I'm jazzed. Just in time for winter. Oh, and I edited the above post w/graphs to use this new one. -------------------- ... she likes bein' forced ...

I know these are non dyno numbers but how are the graphs calculated?

hmmm, looks interesting. Says it works with any text-based delimited format data file. Might have to try it with a pocket logger file.

Time for some updates:
New wheels and rubber for autocross:  I'll get some better pics once mounted. And for handling, since I think my front shocks are completely toast now: Robispec Clubsports Whiteline Max C Front Camber plates Cusco Rear Camber Plates Whiteline Precision steering kit Rear Bump Steer Rear Trailing Arm Bushings Front and Rear Endlinks Robispec Front Sway bar (I already have a Progress rear) Whiteline Roll Center kit Precision Laser Alignment/Corner Balancing ... all done by Robi through a special trip to Chicago the weekend of May 2nd! That should put some used Eibach Pro Kit springs in the "available" pile, along w/the stock turbo, hotside, and O2 housing... and the bank account on life support ... -------------------- ... she likes bein' forced ...

Speakin' of which, I know someone with an '05 VIII that would like to borrow coil packs from some troubleshooting in town. I don't think fixem2 is on here much, but on CICENET. I thought I had a set, but I've just got spare plug wires...
