Then why does it say "Standard ShootOut graph" at the bottom? Not trying to stir the pot, I just don't recall ever seeing that unless it was actually in shootout mode.

Good numbers, regardless.

They all say shootout mode. It's the type of shootout mode as Scheides stated that matters.

That is a DB Sekret, I am only one of many in a long line that say "just say no to twin pumps!"

Dan said Kenne Bell is coming out with a whole line of new parts:

Boost-a-HP
Boost-a-TQ
Boost-a-MPH
Boost-a-ET
Boost-a-60'
Boost-a-Oil

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

I thought Dave had already punched the pressure relief on the 255 in his setup. The second pump is progressive so I dunno if that'd work the same way. I was very curious whether he'd see any fueling issues.

It'd be interesting to see someone do a 255/BAP/E85 w/punched pressure relief on a X. If it works like the 8/9's (never a good assumption with the X) then that'd be a good setup.

Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

Well after being down for 5 months the wait is over...

Got do DB at around 930am left around 530 or so.

On the way home I only tried my daily driving tune and shit...I was scared...i haven't felt this kind of power ever...scared to even try the track tune.

Here are the sheets (was going to wait until after the dyno day tomorrow but fuck it).

Daily tune:

Power/boost


Power/afr


Power/torque



Track tune!

Power/afr


Power/boost


Power/torque


Shootout mode numbers! (rough dynojet numbers for now)

Very good. Now you can put replace the springs and make it look like less of a truck.

Let's see him take some turns at BIR with less than 1/2 tank. No, you can't drive like a pansy. lol.

Seriously though, Dave did the BlaqOPs kit in the stock hanger I tried it in the Full Blown hanger...that's where my grief started. I traded my stock hanger to BlaqOPs as a part of the deal and the OEM hangers are insanely priced. I actually did buy the same thing and that was my first fuel system attempt!
