hey man, i got my car tuned in Portland, Oregon at a place called VIP performance. i have an e-bay 44 trim t3/t4 turbo so i'm running a 13 pound spring and with about 1-2psi drop the map sensor reads a little over 11psi to the manifold.
i built the engine with vitaras to eventually get over 300whp, the ONLY thing that is holding me back right now is my dsm 450 injectors. i'm sitting at this HP level because in full boost at 11.0:1 AFR the injectors are hitting 100% duty cycle. i know that most 450s can handle more power, i think something mechanically is wrong with them as i bought them used and didn't have them flow checked or anything.
so i have a stock head, stock HG, IM, TB and a cast mani...not good for really high rpm's, but i'm going to be getting some ~780cc injectors probably next year some time and shoot for ~330whp.
i'm just doing it in steps i guess...this is my first turbo car so i'm still learning alot. you can check out my build thread for more info

but thanks man....any suggestion on where to get tuned in portland/salem/eugene area?
