- Learning how to tune a 7 second, 1800HP world record holding drag car!
With no set recognized training pathway to becoming a professional EFI tuner, it’s hard for some starting out to see what they need to do to reach their goals within the industry. At TX2K Devin Schultz of Boostin Performance talked Andre through how he went from twisting spanners on simple builds as an internetless 16-year-old through to tuning the Red Demon, the World's Quickest and Fastest AWD Mitsubishi with a 7.047 @ 204 MPH record as well as separate blistering 215 MPH run down the quarter.
Devin talks about how over time the success of the 95 DSM project saw others begin to seek him out for tuning services which then grew into a full-time career and how advancements in ECU and turbocharger technology is the main drive behind cars going faster and faster down the strip and around the track.
Also discussed are the advantages of strain gauge setups and how they operate, boost by gear, future goals for the Red Demon and how ECU processing speeds are the next thing on the horizon that will see performance increased even further.
Due to injury the Devin and the Red Demon were not running at this event but we're excited and watching closely for them to crack into the 6's in the future.

As a Dsm owner, Red Demon has always been one of my car hero's! Really cool to see the interview with the Devin! I got to see him make that 215mph pass at the The Shootout which was awesome! Great job HP Academy on all the knowledge you guys have put into your channel thru these interviews! Y'all deserve more subscriber's!!
Great chat. He's the same way if you run into him in person too.
what an amazing car and a cool guy, thanks for the great video.
Cheers Brian! Very impressive and so close to the 6's now, only a matter of time ;) - Taz.
Those high horsepower stick shift all wheel launches are so crazy looking. I can’t believe the 6’s are so close. Those DSM engineers must be proud.
You always seem to ask the questions I am thinking king of, love your interviews.
Cheers Robert, appreciate the kind words - Taz.
he also asks the questions that I didn't know to ask. great interviewer. has he had professional media training?
Yessssss I’ve wanted to see this for so long. I remember building my gsx in high school and during finals I did my big presentation about the red demon.
First time im heard of ramping the rev limiter to control the launch and all of first gear. Neat stuff!
Grab your HPA merch here. Potentially available in Red to those that are colour blind, and for everyone else a slimming black: bit.ly/MerchHPA - Taz 👨🏻
Love these in-depth videos
Another great interview 👏
Cheers mate - Taz.
Liked this one a lot. Truly an inspiration for people like myself to keep working hard to have a career such as his. Interesting to hear about his background as well.
That's awesome he gave SDAC a mention! I wonder if he still has a Turbo Mopar?
Life goals! Keep working towards my dreams
I finally got what the strain gauge shifter is doing. What a brilliant concept!
I can’t wait to see the red demon progress
I loved finding out the boost by gear differential. I'm dying to know what the Speed Factory Civic is running in each gear. Great interview, incredible car, and nice guy.
That’s my tuner 😜
Love these interview Andre
Still got that brace on the ol' shifting hand. 🙁 Good interview!
"we're using a 26x8.5in tire, so we're limited on how much power we can put down"
Yeah Devin, it's a small tire but you're turning ALL FOUR of them! 😂
Gotta love the drag racers mindset.
One hell of a car/driver combo.
Yes but AWD/4WD setups are not simply something where you get double the traction just because you are doubling the wheels you have to turn. Weight shifts, there are driveline considerations and even the launch is different.
The interview with JR on the ETS-G talks about this a little more if you're interested - Taz.
Andre getting all the secrets lol. Woooot
Hopefully somebody can provide some insight, but I really don't understand how this car can run a 6.44:1 pressure ratio (80 psi) with a single turbo, when on every compressor map I've seen on turbos all the way to 3,000+ horsepower units, 5:1 is too high to land on even the least efficient island of the compressor map. On paper, this should only be blowing hot air and losing power compared to a lower boost level that would actually align with the compressor map, but clearly that isn't how it's working in the real world. What am I missing???
Nice first car
cool, need to setup race timer rev limit ;)
How much psi are you running on that neck vein
hahaha I think about 140/90. He is very excited getting all this info. ;)
- Ben
What G does it pull on the launch ? Looks ANGRY as!
:/ my face when i hear people say they work 40-50hrs a week and dont have time but am here working 60-70hrs a week 🤦😂
Stage the limiter above the launch to hold power at rate x time 🚀
is that the new boostin performance shifter in action ?
A couple questions, they are running a 30psi base pressure then achieving 80psi+ on "a good track" without c02 boost control.. when we know that the mechanical limitations are roughly x2 base boost.. So are they essentially free boosting it? And with the dropping out of boost on gearshifts why are more not running large recirculation valves to help keep that air in the system instead of wasting it on gearshifts aftermarket boxes or not..?
The 2X rule, as far as I know, only applies to open loop boost control. With closed loop, you control both sides of the wastegate and the peak is in a sense, unlimited.
The last thing I would have guessed his previous job was is karate instructor lol.
Yeah not really complimentary activities but everyone is full of surprises =) - Taz.
So what is preventing Red Demon from runnings 6’s. Why is the GTR throwing down 6’s and not Red Demon? Simply Red Demon being manual, or what other factors are there?
Dude the Red Demon has a billet block nothing I car is OEM
@@sameerjura6535 I know, and so are the blocks in GTR's that run 6's
@@colinbarrineau3102 plus the weight
I believe the thing that is preventing him from hitting 6s is his hand , which is injured, hard to run when you can't shift , If it was an auto , no problem
@@sameerjura6535 ya billet block , OEM head , has run 7.30s at 205 mph OEM block and head
Is that a billet block or head?
yes
I think its just the short block actually, unless they have a skunkworks head
I think th block is billet. Head isn't.
They use one billet block and at least one factory cast block. Not sure which was used for the 215mph pass, and the answer might surprise you.
Tuning in the late 90s was awful. Carburetor tuning was easier it seemed. I blew several DSM 4g63s head gaskets and even bent rods burnt pistons tuning and chasing speed. Definitely a generation X proud era of life. Now tuning is much simpler with wide bands, reliable injection systems and pumps.
wow, did you see his steering wheel right at the of that pass? lol
Jeeeeez us
not a drag thing, it's a human thing. the hidonic treadmill
