Intercooler and downpipe now available. I just need to find time to install or have a buddy do it at his shop. Either way it will be done soon. Lund already sent me a hotter E30 tune to use with the new parts.

Nice! IC is a lot easier to do with the bumper off and the DP is a little tricky to line up and start the nuts; I found it easier for my wife to hold the DP in place from the top while I ran the nuts down from below.

You re-use the stock doughnut gasket.

A little better today. :) Still just the Lund tune and wheels/tires. No weight removal. 1/2 tank of E30.
MAP intercooler/downpipe/intake going on this week. Then it will get turned up a little.

Thanks to Jason Justi for the use of his MAP intercooler, downpipe, and intake.

Thanks to Turbo302 (Tim) for the install of the IC and downpipe at his shop, Twin Town Motors.

Thanks to Greg and Jon II at Lund for working with me.

Thanks to Hitech for another quick dyno pull today.

It didn't pick up much peak power (I didn't really expect it to) because boost hasn't been changed, but it's about 12hp up at the peak but the curve looks a lot better and it carries much farther at higher rpm. Air charge temps are way lower with this intercooler versus the factory one.
Another track day this Sunday, hoping it improves!

Nice! Looking forward to track results. A guy at the track on the stock IC saw -12 degrees of timing on the big end....gulp.

So close but no 12s yet! I think if I had been able to make a couple more passes yesterday I probably could have figured it out. Oh well.

I'll either leave it as-is and try again soon or switch to a Lund pump gas + Torco tune (their suggestion), as it's basically at the edge of running out of fuel on E30 as it is, so it shouldn't be turned up for safety's sake.
