Hi Omar,
Let's keep this relationship professional. I don't recall speaking with you in the past directly. If you would like to discuss over PM, I'm happy to do so. I will have the full writeup on this finished today or tomorrow. It will include the methods used, the sequence, and an analysis of the results. Please do not take this as a public attack against AA as this is not the intent. We solely wanted to illustrate our findings. I think that Jeremy and I would be congratulated instead of "reeled in" for identifying and fixing the problem on powertrips car. And just for reference, we did atleast 10 dyno pulls on his car. The graphs listed on the chart were the respective highest of each tune. Regards, Mike Quote:

Its funny how tuners must always constantly interefere/compete with each other. Dont get me wrong, this is the reason y some companies succeed and y some dont. U must always improve. But no reason to jump into someone elses thread just cause they were able to make more power.

PowerTrip, thanks for doing this. It's rare to be able to see mods compared side-by-side in an objective format.
Mike, looking forward to seeing your write-up.

Does anyone else find it interesting that the stock run number is after the Powerchip tuned run number? The poster said that he dynoed with the AA tune, then stock, then the Powerchip tune. It looks to me like he dynoed the AA tune, then did a TON of dyno tuning pulls and had a Powerchip tune, then he quickly flashed back to stock while the car still had the new learned power in the ecu causing the higher stock numbers than the AA tune. That seems a very unfair way of doing things. I would like to see files 1 through 8 and files 27 through 30.

I'll let Mike chime in on this, but I don't think that's the way that it works when flashing to a completely different map. All of the "learned timing" should be erased when the DME flashes to a completely different map. Regardless of that, this post is to show the benefits of a custom tune over an OTS map (not to slander AA ). I think Powerchip did the job by providing 40whp peak...end of story.

Very impressive numbers with the temperature in CA. Today has been the hottest all summer, literally.

I don't have any time today to resize the images and videos and post the writeup. I will however, get to it in the next couple of days. The tuning stuff is my hobby, I give it high priority but I have to take care of my clients in the IT world first because they pay me the big bucks. Sorry for the delay.

I want to say I ran it for approx 6000 miles, so maybe 6 months. It was a smooth tune when I was pretty much stock, but felt "congested" once I upgraded my cats.

I like how AA got all defensive because a custom tune was proven to be superior to their Off the shelf flash what exactly did they think should happen? Is that a joke? Good job to my man Jeremy showing off his skills.

Yep, Jeremy can tune the wheels off anything with 4 wheels (and some things without ).

I think a comparison run is needed!!!
Get 2 cars and compare them then post it. That would make it nice and easy.

Negative ghost rider, you'll never catch me street racing. However, any of you guys in OC are more than welcome to come over for a ride .

Dynos all over the place on this forum.... So many cars tuned perfect to run on the dyno. I prefer real world reviews since my car spends it's time on the street not the dyno drivability and feel of the car is what's important to me. It would be great to somehow put a blind comparison test together. Two cars with the same mods, car A has one tune, car B has the other.... Would love to see if the driver can even tell the difference. ***Not endorsing street racing.
