Default Tune from Motion Lab Tuning in Charlotte, NC

Got the Legacy tuned by Todd (tmarcel) at Motion Lab Tuning via a remote tune and it felt it was making some great power so we brought the car down to him and he fine tuned it on the dyno. Here are the specs:

Stock EJ255 Block
Stock VF40 Turbo
Stock TMIC with JB Weld on edges
GTSpec Exhaust Manifold and Uppipe - DEI Wrapped
RPA Divorced Wastegate Downpipe - DEI Wrapped
RPA EBCS
RPA Short Ram Intake
RPA Catback Exhaust

The graph below shows the two best runs on the Dyno Dynamics dyno with no additional corrections. The car is currently getting an FMIC Installed as the TMIC can not keep up and will be back on the dyno next week to see how it changes the numbers.

Here is an STI (stock turbo) that was tuned on the same dyno for comparison

UPDATE: Took it to the drag strip

I have always been intrigued by the drag strip and finally decided to get up and go today. I made some runs by myself as well as running against a turbocharged Mazda MX6. I was the only import there until the Mazda showed up. The runs were made the 1/8th mile Piedmont Dragway which is at around 880 ft elevation.

I have done some autocross and other similiar events but this was my first time at the drag strip and I felt pretty good as I got more runs in and believe once I improve my launching and driving I can shave off a bit more of my time. Here are the runs

R/T .772
60' 1.939
330 5.609
1/8 8.693
MPH 81.79

------- Legacy ---- ---- MX-6
R/T ---- .785 ---- ----- .646
60' ---- 1.882 ---- ----- 2.106
330 --- 5.632 ---- ----- 5.838
1/8 --- 8.705 ---- ----- 8.794
MPH -- 82.13 ---- ----- 84.31

------- Legacy ---- ---- MX-6
R/T ---- .846 ---- ----- .644
60' ---- 2.084 ---- ----- 2.202
330 --- 5.874 ---- ----- 6.084
1/8 --- 8.953 ---- ----- 8.980
MPH -- 82.46 ---- ----- 87.91

Once I improve my launching and driving I believe I should be able to get to low 8s

Here is a video of the first run where you can hear some of the comments

Went to the quarter mile at Zmax Dragway last night. We did a little retuning before the runs but the car was a bit rich seeing 10.5 AFR's and the laptop battery was done by the second run so we didn't get a chance to retune for the last few runs. The best slip of the day is below:

R/T --- 0.066
60' ---- 1.861
330 --- 5.556
1/8 ---- 8.613
MPH --- 80.56
1000 -- 11.213
ET -----13.385
MPH ---104.07
