So getting back is was game time! Fired up the old Supra and set everything up for tuning. Just like the first time they first tuned the car off throttle percentage off of wastegate pressure which was 10psi. After completing that everything went very smooth and man my car was LOUD this time since the silencer wasn’t over my exhaust.
– All setup and ready
– DP Engineering Owners (Pieter) K20 Swapped Opel. All the custom work done by him! Including those headers!
So the Facebook page has all the video footage of how the day went along with comments but to summarize.
Supra made 330whp again on 10psi.. Then we wired up the boost controller and BOOM! Same issue as last time. The only thing that went through my mind was ” I just paid to have this fixed..” So after looking back over the boost controller wiring I had placed it on the wrong pin out as well and it all made sense on why things went all wacko when it was hooked. Took 2 mins to get it wired up correctly then we were back to tuning! Like every time things look good they wanted to take a quick lunch break. We decided to go to a close and cheap spot this time and get Döner. Then headed straight back to only 30 mins of tuning before another issue… They got out and said to check the plugs because it was miss firing again or losing spark. I was confused as we just changed the spark plugs last time and that my coilpacks were good so I pulled them out to inspect both and all was good until I got to cylinder #4.
Yup, coilpack was destroyed! Since I didn’t have a spare and Arnout didn’t have any with him tuning was either done or I can leave it there again and guess what? I WASN’T LEAVING IT BEHIND AGAIN! Lol So I agreed to stop where we were and drive it back at where it was and just stay out of boost as much as I can to make it back home with another 4 hour drive back. I bet you are wondering what WHP I ended with huh.. 🙁 it was 375WHP. With 12 PSI of boost it wasn’t too bad but saddening due to the fact I was looking forward to 450+ but got cut short. After leaving the shop at 11pm I was super tired but ready to get home. The exhaust was stupid loud and droning after 5 mins but the car was perfect and felt good! We did a quick stop at one gas station midway and sure enough I couldn’t help myself so I installed my front strut bar. I couldn’t really test it out the difference on the autobahn and was too exhausted to really try. Getting home at 3am I just passed out but glad to have my Supra back!
I will be returning back to get another tune but ill have cams next time to make the power that I want! Enjoy the pics of how it looks now
