Evo 9 retune for ARC airbox

Another track car and another retune. This time the owner added a ARC airbox.

Putting it on the dyno and doing a baseline pull showed bolting on the ARC airbox provided no gains from when he was tuned with the stock OEM airbox with drop-in filter.

After retuning was a different story.

+13whp / +4wtq peak

Large gains in area under the curve from 5500 rpm on, perfect for a track car that usually only sees 5000 rpm + on the track.

Two pulls back to back with final tune to show consistancy:
