RE: Getting Tuned

The 05 over corrects the fuel on the a/f spectrum because of the computers in them. The car smells similar to mine when I was 10:1 a/f on mine.

RE: Getting Tuned

Hopefully you are underguessing your expected results. I would hope you would get more than 270hp out of a CAI and a descent tune.

RE: Getting Tuned

I have exhaust too. I figure it is auto and the manuals with similar mods are in the 280s so I figured 270s. I will know tomarrow for sure though.

Mine is being dyno'ed tomorrow too. Let's compare our numbers. It looks like we have similar setups: auto, axle backs, CAI, tune...

I am getting dyno tuned by Ed Clark on Tuesday. My car is running a little rich and lately has been a little sluggish. To give you an idea of how sluggish I lost to an Evo from a roll last night. It took my car forever to go from 55 to 100. I would think that the tune should take care of this. Do you guys think that is the problem? Also what do you think I will put down? I am thinking 270 or so H.P and 290 or so TQ.

Nothing wrong with losing to an EVO even if it was on a roll, they run better times than 13.7 stock. Plus what altitude are you at? I know turbo cars dont suffer from altitude as bad as N/A cars.

Well I don't have an auto, and I don't have exhaust mods, and I am at 299hp and 309lbs rwtq with a CAI, pulleys, and a descent tuner. That is why I was saying I hope you have underguesstimated.

Is it common to put down numbers that good with only those mods? How much do most GT manuals dyno at the wheels stock?

RE: Getting Tuned

A think a good "stock" average is around 265hp at the wheels.

RE: Getting Tuned

Stock manuals usually dyno low to mid 260s stock. As far as what I put down it was a lot less that I thought. The numbers are in my sig. It was 100 degrees in the shop I was tuned at though.
