Dyno tuned the 91 SS
I got my 91 SS dyno tuned by Harvey at The Boost Creep Ltd.
This is on a stock longblock with 230K and crappy 22t heads.
I'm running the vf39 with 550cc injectors at 17psi tuned with the pp6.
Made 270ftlbs and 240hp...the torque is expected but hp seems good for the heads.

I am running the 550cc Sti injectors, which allow the good match for the vf39. I also have a ton of other mods, but those are mostly supporting and don't have much to do with the power output.
The dyno this was done on is comparable to the other shops in the mile high area.
I am super happy with this setup for the moment. The car feels pretty fast. I was making 240tq and 180hp with the td04 at 16psi, so it's a good increase for just the vf39.
This gives me some time to enjoy this power while I build my 2.35L stroker. I will be starting a build thread for that shortly.

This is exactly what I was questioning was comparing the td04 to the vf39 performance. I will definitely be looking into larger turbo upgrades and injectors for the future when revtronix releases a fully tuneable chip. ATM with the td04 on a auto i am pretty happy as the torque does a good job, if my car was stick would probably want the hp too. Actually I want the HP and torque no matter whatmacipusy wrote:I am running the 550cc Sti injectors, which allow the good match for the vf39.

One thing to keep in mind for this setup is the intercooler. The 06 WRX TMIC I am running is too small with the vf39 at 17psi. It definitely heat soaks and it was evident. When we did 4 pulls on the dyno in a row, each pull lost between 5-10 hp. When we let the car cool off for 20-30 min, the next pull was always good.
I actually saw 280ftlbs and 245hp on one of the pulls, but the curve was more choppy, so we didn't print that one.
I am now looking into running a FMIC.

I wonder how meth injection helps? Or a IC sprayer.macipusy wrote:One thing to keep in mind for this setup is the intercooler. The 06 WRX TMIC I am running is too small with the vf39 at 17psi.

I did install a lightweight flywheel in between the td04 and vf39....so that might account for some to the wheels power increase.
The rest of the improvement is from the vf39 and re-tune.

Yes this is AWHP....I am guessing that is around 350ftlbs/315hp at the crank

Feels like it pulls hard all the way now. Before, with the td04, it dropped off up high.

thats awesome, nice numbers.
can u post ur full mod list.
im curious if certain parts were used in addition to the vf39, sti injectores, wrx tmic and ecu.
ie: exhaust, headers, catless, fuel pump, intake, stock or aftermarket clutch... etc. what other parts do u have?
im very impressed with these numbers thats why i ask... thanks.

The tuning was done by Harvey, who owns his shop....The Boost Creep Ltd. He has been around for a long time in the Denver/Boulder area and is a very reputable tuner.

The 92-94 N/A fuel rails allow me to run the USDM STi 550cc injectors.
