This car arrived at our facility last Monday all the way from Indiana. It already had some basic modifications (and as it turns out a gaping hole in its lower intercooler pipe) but as Jordan worked his magic into Friday night it became an entirely different animal I'm very happy with the outcome, we even hit 494whp on the E85 tune at one point but turned it back down due to longevity concerns with the stock block. The EF2 turbocharger continues to exceed my expectations.

My sincere thanks go out to all the stock ECU gurus, especially Tephra as without his efforts dual maps might not be a reality!

Modifications:

Stock Shortblock
Stock Clutch
MAP EF2 Turbocharger
MAP 3.5" Intake
MAP Rev3 Intake Manifold
MAP Short Runner Exhaust Manifold
AMS O2 Eliminator Downpipe
GSC Valve Springs
GSC S2 Cams
BC Head Gasket
ARP Head Studs
Grimmspeed 3-port EBC
FIC 1100cc Injectors
Walbro 255hp Fuel Pump
Aftermarket 3" CBE
Aftermarket Intercooler & Piping

Pump Gas: 421whp / 326wtq

E85 Results: 472whp / 428wtq

Here's a quote from the customer's father who picked up the car for the journey back to Indiana:

...does the e85 tune come with seat protection? Lol holy heck! Lol

And here are the customer's initial impressions:

The car has made it home safely. I took it for a few drives and all I have to say is wow. The car’s powerband is crazy wide. You did an awesome job. Thanks for all the time and effort you put into the car. I will definitely be bringing the car back to you for a short block build sometime in the future.

Wow very impressive numbers for a EF2 for sure. Wish I was installing an EF3 instead of my FP Red right now

What does the EF2 compare too?? Right in the middle of a Fp green and red?? and guessing EF3 is between red and black.

from impressions and dynos the good thing about the EF2 is that it spools quicker than a green

FP Green = EF2
FP Red = EF3
FP Black = EF4

I'm afraid I don't know the full modifications list (I'll update that on Monday when I get back in the office) but I do know we added some GSC S2 cams, valve springs, MAP short runner tubular exhaust manifold, and of course our EF2 turbocharger. I'm very happy with the outcome, we even hit 494whp on the E85 tune at one point but turned it back down due to longevity concerns with the stock block The EF2 turbocharger continues to exceed my expectations.

Waiting to hear updates on this, I think I'm going to do this setup.

 

[HappyMint]

My main question, what temperature was it outside? I know it's got to be pretty cold up there in MN.

 

[ZLAYER]

Oh yaaa, you betcha!

 

[insane_DOHC]

It's not that cold up here. It's been around 40 lately up here in ND don't ya know, hey, yah you betchya.

 

[chetrickerman]

Yea, minnesota and wisconsin has been pretty warm lately

 

[DrivenFab]

everywhere is pretty warm lately. But I like these results!!!

 

[ChrisCarey]

Pics updated, I can figure out temperature information tomorrow.

 

[Xenozx]

how do these dual maps work? Like, you can have 2 maps, and no need of a AP? Please elaborate

 

[chetrickerman]

TephraMod

 

[mistermarc]

You use the Maps with an opensource/tephramode program and you can program your car to have 2 maps one for e85 and one for 93 pump, example. if you are on the 93 map you can double click you cruise control button and then switch over to your e85 map.

Updated with mod list!

 

[dj_xmx]

Chris the short tublar manifold does it add much lag? on the ef2?

 

[ChrisCarey]

I'm afraid we haven't done a back to back with an EF2, but here is a comparison with an FP Black car:
