I second that, Jorge was a wonderful person to meet, and even better tuner then I could had expected.
He will not push the envelope and sacrifice driveability for a few extra ponies. I have a: 08 Forester XT Sport M/T VF43 STi TMIC Perrin Eboost solenoid Cobb AP Cobb TBE (catted) K&N Typhoon short intake Walb F/P we made 284 whp, and 330 tq ! She was a completely different car, or should I say "Box" after Jorge tuned her. He was by far one of the best tuners I have had tune any of my cars. I have been through the gambit of tuners, and Jorge is in the top 3. He sincerely cares about meeting the goals of the client, and pushing the vehicle to the point where its fun and safe to drive. His power band are smooth, you could use the lines as a level, they peak and hold wit out dipping. Do yourself a favor and tell him your goals and mods, and what ever he suggests do to your ride before,DO IT! Look foward to seeing your dyno sheet! Here's mine |

Yes the p and l crew have been most helpful. We will be getting a 93 tune and a 100 tune. Its a shame injectors aren't in the budget.

Wow. 316 on an 48. I'm impressed. I hope to touch 3 on 100 fuel.

I just installed a brand new pnpnc vf48 on my car. I have been having trouble out of one of my injectors and haven't been able to tune as a result. Here are my power mods:
2003 WRX 2.5 STi shortblock STi cams Perrin 3" downpipe HKS Carbon Ti Grimmspeed EWG uppipe pnpnc exhaust manifolds with bigger x pipe DW 650 GM boost solenoid STi TMIC I took off a TD05h-16g. I'm hoping to get a few more ponies out of the VF48. I hope to get the injector issue worked out tomorrow and possibly get tuned early next week. |

Those are pretty standard numbers for a vfXX on a 2.0L. I had a FULLY supported VF34 on my 04 wrx tuned by riftswrx (jorge) that put down 275/250.

Thanks for your input. However, I am routinely at least 10+whp and 20+wtq the numbers that I referenced on VFxx 2.0L cars that I tune and I'm working with 91 octane. What concerned me more was the shape of the graph. It is very ragged, with either some very visible timing pulls or very odd steps in the timing profile. Either way, that tune is definitely sub optimal.

Sorry for not updating this thread. We went to see jorge and had the p and l crew do their pre dyno inspection and found the bov gasket to be leaking. Replaced it and then the turbo inlet was leaking. So no tune for us. Ordered a perrin so we will be back up to see the p and l crew asap.

Yea they offer a pre dyno test for 40 bucks to check for boost leaks, etc. Not sure what they actually call the test but it was 40 to know for sure of 200 per hour on the dyno and if I had leaks they would be worked on while on dyno which would cost me more.

I plan to keep the stock turbo inlet so I am curious how it will perform. Surprised P&L does not carry inlets, I am sure this is not the first time this happens to out of towners. |
