Well, after an hour diagnosing an AFM issue and the car running extremely lean...the results are in.

I'm mildly happy with the number, not amazed, but mildy happy. There were issues with the Hyperflow CAI swirling the air inside the pipe causing the AFM to feed incorrect results to the ECU.

They've tuned it best they can. I'm considering putting the stock airbox back on as they think it might make more power than with the CAI.

The car has more power down low, and a significant amount more power up top. Feels like it boosts quicker all over the shop and is a much nicer car to drive.

I'm happy.

very nice, now the next test is how she goes in the heat

As soon as she hands it to you, slowly take of your pants, then, while staring her straight in the eyes rub it against the tip of you penis, while continuing your painfully intense gaze whisper to her;
 
"My eye is watering, this might be a bit hot"

I should just convert to single, right?

not a result to be sneezed at.

Congrats! As long as she is safe, then don't stress!

What's the boost set to?

Ouch. Bit low mate.


I'm perplexed as to why you say this.

bit conservative on the boost, I do admit. but if you're cranking 170kw at 14psi, then it sounds about right to me

To be honest, I was expecting around 180-190, so 175'ish isn't that far off in the scheme of things. Like I said, the car is significantly nicer to drive, so i'm happy.

It is definitely faster. It boosts quicker and holds power for longer.

I base my comments on a tune I have seen occur within the last 2 weeks on the exact same model of car, with the stock airbox.
