How much power do you lose on 91 octane?

I'm at Stage 2 right now. Will definitely be at stage 4 by some point during this year. Great product.

Of course adding the exhaust and intake would yield some further gains (the complete package with intake and exhaust yielding 445 HP / 455 TRQ) but those base 3 components would be the bulk of the gains.

How confident are you that a dyno run by an independent shop will reflect those crankshaft power numbers?

Boring!!!

Is this power and torquebto the wheels or the crank?

See post #19 for your answer

Impressive tune for the N55...but no matter how hard I try sitting through Matt Farrah's videos is painful. The most interesting part of that video is when the bug hit the camera.

If you are going to pull over and pick your nose while you let traffic pass, do the internet a favor and cut out that 30 seconds.

^^ lol I saw that also

Solid alternative to the M2

Or just get an Enzo tune. =D

Still waiting for a response to my question. There's a Dinan shop only an hour from me. . .

I guarantee you they are confident. Don't waste your time waiting. It's been done before on their other tunes and shown to be pretty much accurate.

Every dyno in every shop is going to give you some variation on numbers. What's important is the relative gains on the given dyno. Dinan isn't some fly-by-night tuning shop so I would have no reason to question the numbers.

But, you're talking about crank extrapolated numbers which means what you see on your local dyno is going to be a much different number when measured locally at the wheels. I'm sure if you do a before and after run you will wind up with similar gains.

Yes we are confident in the numbers assuming a competent dyno shop that uses proper dyno techniques, cooling methods, etc. That said, each dyno is different and each car is different so you are better off comparing deltas from the stock vehicle to the tuned version rather than absolutes as that will be much more consistent/accurate. I am not in the office but if I recall correctly, stage 4 with the associated hardware yields PEAK gains of roughly 110 HP / 80 TRQ to the crank. On a standard wheel horsepower dyno like a Dynojet or our Dynapack Dyno that would mean about 90-95 HP / 65-70 TRQ at the wheels, again, roughly. I am pretty sure that MAX gains on the torque side of the equation were much higher then the peak gains as the torque remains pretty consistent to redline rather then falling off but I am not confident enough in my memory to spout off a specific number. Also keep in mind all of our testing is based off of simply 93 octane and stock cats. Higher numbers could be achieved with higher octane (race gas) or the cats removed (albeit a CEL would be present).

Might need to get this to keep up with the Focus RS that are sure to start appearing around Denver. I think I can get it all done at Schomp.
