Default ATTN: Bay Area GS430 owners looking for upgrades

I'm a regular in the SC forums, and rarely venture out of it, but my friend Leo at Weapon-R performance just completed tuning on a new ECU and intake in my car. My dyno runs were done pre-ECU and post-ECU, the intake had already been installed for a while. Now he'd like to try his mettle at a GS430. If any of you guys want to really pull the power out of your cars, give him a call.

I drive a green 1993 SC400 on those L-Tuned 18"s around Marin, you might have seen me.. the ECU upgrade alone got my car 38 horsepower .. and he hasn't even put the final settings on it..
If you race a car that looks like mine, and you're losing, that's gonna be me Their site is www.weapon-r.com and the number is 1-650-877-8280 ext. 2, ask for Leo.

Here's the dyno graph BEFORE (I'll be getting one next week from DSR again so you can see the differences on the same machine):

And here's the AFTER dyno graph.
Note that the older V8's didn't make much power w/o VVT-i
