Ok, ladies and germs, I know you all like data, so here's some. I wasn't aware you can trim the data like vDyno actually does so I'll do that in future.

GTX Base and Rev 1.jpg

This datazap is of the base tune run, where I started much lower in rpm.

This one here is started at 3.5krpm.

Ooook... So... I was concerned about my spool time so I started chatting with [MENTION=1098]drag4life723[/MENTION]. He had me strap a rubber glove to my dump and lo and behold it blew right off. This meant that my wastegate wasn't closed. I sent him pics of my pre-install and he says, "the valve seat goes under." So... I start scratching my head and think to myself..."oh damn, let me check the packaging." Sure enough, there the valve seat was... -_- I was so embarrassed that I couldn't help but to laugh at myself. Moral of the story, people: Don't be Hijinx. Loaded my base tune up again, and here are the results:

Lol. I like how the fuel just checks out on you at 6500+ rpm, lol. I think this pretty much answers our questions about what the stock fuel system can do on normal gas, lol.

I almost wish they built that valve seat into the wastegates, lol.

Shifter goodies to be installed:

Mountune Quick Shift
Boomba Shifter Base and Bracket bushings

My waking time is limited before I head off to Focus Fest so they'll have to wait.

93 octane, revisions 1 and 2. [MENTION=1098]drag4life723[/MENTION] is a mad genius, in my opinion.

In case anyone misses it, the second revision is the same average power level while commanding for 2 LESS lbs of boost.

Great numbers! Can't wait to get all my parts in order and get a pro tune. Thanks for posting the data!

PS everytime I see your name I cry a little inside that I didn't buy your Cobb FMIC. Lol

Great build!

these numbers look way better than your first set. I guess Panda couldn't whip up a tune that Russ/DHM could. Great job. Those wanting a tune should take note, LOL
Given enough time, they could put their Panda spin on it. But, those guys have got a lot on their plate and I wanted the car tuned before the cold weather set in. Who other than Russ could tune it the absolute best within any given time frame? No one.

I agree, not sure why you didn't go with Russ to begin with since it's his kit and he has a vested interest to produce great results, and the results show.

DHM and Panda have a relationship. I got my kit through Panda, as I do with the majority of my parts since I'm local to them, so I have a relationship with them as well. They've tuned me since Stage 1, almost a year ago to the Cyborg I had. Tuning was included, and since I have that relationship and they wanted a crack at it, I figured why not let them have another 300whp Fiesta under the belt. The timing was just unfortunate.

It's going to be so, so awesome!! I gotta get the car cleaned up tomorrow! Hopefully, Panda gets my ceramic Hawk pads in before I have to leave, so my wheels stay sort of clean. Should be today.
