Just bought bill's used Hahn turbo... What else do I need to buy?

Quote from Garrett Taguchi

So if the difference between 91 and 92 is scant, (I live in so Cal, no 93 here), 91 should be fine? Maybe add 9ctane booster? (does that stuff really work lol)

I'm not a fan of octane boosters...they are inconsistent at best. Stay at Stage 2, run 91 octane and love life!

Quote from BKL

I'd consider Hahn's Stage 2/2X system as a Stage 2 with around 8 lbs boost and the Stage 2X label meaning the system can be forced to produce more boost by changing springs i the wastegate, with the understanding that going beyond the as-delivered Stage 2 settings really needs a built motor.

Clarifications:

Stage 2 operates at 6-7 PSI, Stage 2X at 9-10 PSI.
Both use the same wastegate spring combination. We have an alternate method outlined in the manual to set for Stage 2 or 2X.
Both are proven compatible with stock engines. When we have a customer wondering what's best for them, we simply state that if the ultimate reliability is their goal, stay at 2. If they're more interested in making high power and sacrificing some reliability, Stage 2X is the way to go.

Our intention is to provide something for everyone, as our clientele run a large gamut...from those looking for outstanding long-term reliability, to those who are looking for the most they can possibly get!

I recall reading something about bibs tune not being able to communicate with a fail safe... But I see people buying fail safe gauges... Just wondering I'd that was true...

We now have a way to use the FailSafe function in the AEM Failsafe Gauge. We'll be introducing this kit soon!

I may have been off on the boost settings, but I stand by my comments that I wouldn't go to 2X unless I had a built motor (or the funds to buy one), just in case. I need to go reread the Installation guide once I get thru mucking around with the oil pan swap. I'm still trying to clean off all the old gasket material. Trying a trick I read online to use a sharp pencil lead to scrape the residue off and then just clean off the graphite. I've already sprayed some CRC Gasket remover in a can and brushed it on and waited 10 minutes before wiping it off (twice). Either the pencil trick will work or I'll just brush more gasket remover on and wipe/scrape some more.
As far as the using a Failsafe Function with with an AEM Failsafe Gauge, naturally, I bought the Innovate SCG-1, instead.

Usually the residue will scrape off with a single-edge razor blade or utility knife blade. That's all I use. It's a bit tedious, but very effective. I don't like using any kind of handle attached to said blades, as that increases the force available by a factor of many, and can lead to inadvertent gouging of the surface.

Be sure to also extract any excess that's laying alongside the machined surfaces as well.

@Garrett Taguchi they can dyno it but they won't be tuning it unless they can crack it like bob did but good luck with the dyno pulls

Keep us posted on how the tune works out!! I may be interested in driving down to have the SC dyno'd

@STYLN how is that new supercharger treating you?

Quote from Garrett Taguchi

On my way now... Will be ready tomorrow morning.. I'll keep you guys posted.

I hope to have a new smaller pulley from a great mentor soon!!! So once thats installed Id like to meet up and do the same!

Garrett,

As I understand it you are now aware if they told you this, it is in fact a lie .......

Its going GREEEEEAAAAAT! I literally have to learn how to drive this thing all over again! The amount of power and throttle response is like no other I have driven before. I love the fact that I can actually use 5th gear as a GEAR now!! LOL @Slingrazor was a plethora of knowledge and did a great job getting it all together!

Just curious.....how would you assume this? I mean calling someone a liar is a bold move. Maybe Bob has a partner? I mean after all they are both in the surrounding Los Angeles area.
