Default Finally!

Well I finally got the car perfect. On full accel from a stop when I hit 30mph the tires start to spin and go through 40mph! Nice! Stock tune for now but will be working on a tune by the first of the year! I ran it before I played with the settings! I'm going to get some track times with this set up first and then go from there with the tune! Running at 14psi, with minor bolt on mods, and a wahlbro 255lph fuel pump!

Very nice. I'm totally stock but for some reason I chirp tires @ 55 mph. I guess I'm going from 2nd to 3rd.

Heh, sorry about that, I immediately check your profiles for the pics. I have found a new love for wagons since I got my V70. I like your wagon rspi, and the V70 was built off the platform of the 850 wasn't it?

Did you do the pump? Which model # did you use?

Yes the V70 is pretty similar to the 855. A lot of the parts interchange but ....

Yes I installed it when my stock pump decided to stop working! I used the GSS340 in tank pump. Had to do some mods to get it in there and to stay there but it works well. I didn't get any pictures of it though because I was tryin to get my car back on the road!

Do you think the pump made a difference somewhere with the power?

I don't think the pump made a difference other than peace of mind that when I up my boost the pump has enough output for the engines needs!
