after that when he was around the 235-250 range i dont think he was at 9psi and he also had a different motor setup at the time as well.
no, but they way he wrote it and what the topic of this thread is made it sound like he was implying it was.

but i can say i have never once heard anything good about adrenaline.

Hmm. Maybe I will have this place tune my car after I finish up the rest of the bolt-ons. I have intake and exhaust now, but hopefully by the end of summer I will have my Innovative Mounts motor mounts, UR pullies, DC headers, Random Technology cat, P2R spacers, Mugen thermostat-fan switch-and radiator cap, and possibly the P2R Plenums. I think I will tune it with the Apexi NEO. I was a lil worried about Adrenaline doing it, maybe this place will do a good job for me.

You CANNOT make more hp than torque unless it is over 5252rpm. It is simple math, and it is not possible.

Correct!

Horsepower =

Actually, the last numbers were with a 14 psi spring, but I was being held back since I didn't have a 3-bar MAP sensor to work along with the Power FC.

And my mistake... after looking over my old PM from John, it was making those numbers at 5,500 rpms, there was VTEC engagement.

no clue to what it is doing today
sitting in front of Lowe's for the last 2 years with a spun rod bearing from what i've heard.... that car didn't run very well when i raced it in my 82 mustang coupe that probly only ran high 13's on the street. the focus kinda hung in there, but didn't impress me for a turbo v6.... but i don't know how well it was tuned then either...
