Dyno visit
... anybody ever thought of Dyno Flash? If I wasn't trading in the RA, I would do this first thing monday morning.
im not a big fan of being a scapegoat..
you know, we have here a guy that sells/makes "reflash" and when i hear him talk it gives me goosebumps.... so no, at least i didnt considered when it wasnt an option and now that it is.. not to my cars....

who doesnt get goosebumps when the firts thing they guy says is that im am not responsible of the ecu gets damaged DURING the process of the reflash....
so IF the event of a ecu failing during the reflash... wtf are you going to do....?
not that is not a good mod but is something you should take an deep look before having to spend $ on a new one...

Deathsythe.. Improved mid range thats good..! I never told you it was easy. Welcome to the piggy club. Just to be curious what were the lower values the RRM program had.? And what was the lower value you applied..? Any doubts let me know..! Remember to learn to play with it as you can use it for turbo.

The piggyback is at least fool proof you can always reconnect the MAS wire 
(like I have right now)
Moving back to your latest dyno runs, congrats on the gains man! I personally think you defineately got your money's worth as far as the tune goes, AND you're now running safely. Thanks for sharing man.

So if you take that into consideration i'd have nearly 170whp. Im gonna try to go to another dyno to see how accurate this is , nevertheless im extremely happy with the tune i got today.
BTW my mods are on the first page.

I have no problems with Luis and his Dyno: I dynoed it when Pr_Mivec was testing the RPW header some time ago. But someday I will visit another dyno just for the kicks! It is also true that all dynos are not the same...some give more...some give less. The important issue is to use the same dyno every time so you can track the evolution of the car (whp) mod after mod.
