What. A. Car. I know we say this a lot at GBE and we are very lucky to have the opportunity to work on such amazing vehicles, but seriously this is an awesome car. This Evo 9 came in for a Link ECU from our good friends at FCM Motorsport. FCM spent hundreds of hours on this car and it really shows. The car is running a Garret GT35R turbo and Asnu 1400cc injectors with a full race manifold. The car had head lift on its first dyno runs, so it now also has an HKS Stopper head gasket and beefier ARP...

A 160k miles BMW 535d in for a remap, totally stock car still running the DPF. This car is a fine example of a BMW; higher mileage yet still delivering great power and torque. Here is the before graph: 399 lbs/ft and 256 hp. Not bad for a 13 year old stock car!  We performed the remap and this is the after graph: Big gains! With 454 lbs/ft and 293hp. Total gains of 55 ft/lbs and and 36 HP. Nice! As we can also see from the graph; the torque and power curve is much smoother and we see the torque...
