Lol this is a useless thread. And b_real does tune his own car. And stOck clutch can hold almost 300. I replaced my stock clutch at I think 285 trq. And I beat the crap out of it. And like b_real said you need aimethin to see how much iming your running i'd you don't know then you should find out.
all in do time, ill be getting a logger soon, aint nothing wrong with pulling more timing than normal till i get a logger..
and thanks for the tip ill start turning boost up slightly to maybe 7-8 im still on 450 injectors so....not much more i can crank it seeing that im using a big turbo so 8psi is prob outta its rang right now im at 80% dutycycle

What you really should do is tune your car perfect on partial throttle then wot get it like a base tune and then tune it on a dyno. And just raise the boost to whatever power goal you want. And 4 sure get a data logger asap if your serious about tuning your car on your own. GL!

darn that makes sense I got all excited about that too lol. any information on the data logger? I only have a scangauge, and occasionally get my hands on the toyota or snap on ones from school, but I having it real time on the computer would be money.

I have the Innovate OT-1... it's good but the problem is the protocol our ECU uses.. our protocol has a very poor sampling rate so if you want good resolution to your datalogs, you shouldn't log too many things at once. I generally stick with only three things:
Option 1:
RPM
STFT
LTFT
Option 2:
RPM
STFT
ADV TIMING
Option 3:
RPM
ADV TIMING
COOLANT TEMP
If you have a newer Scion - I think '07+ - it uses the CAN protocol and is faster.
