"Secondly, I am a noob and didnt really know how to look at the graph like I should. "
I have tried to make the point clear that I am inexperienced with car modding/tuning. I even told you guys this when I was there. So here is my official oppology on my initial dissapointment with the numbers. If you watched the thread, I was quick to remove my first complaint on those and focus more on the problem while driving.

If anyone felt there was an issue with the performance of their tuning, please forgive me.

He is not using a ZChip and your post is off-topic.

I have a basic tuning, no boost pill or whatever the zchip is. No mods on my car either. I am going to try to reproduce the issue and capture it on my phone's vid recorder. If I can i will try to make it more clear as to what the issue is.

Thank you. Its very well possible that whatever you heard that you have been unable to reproduce, has nothing to do with the mapping.

I forgot to include what I said right before the above quote. "It was my fault for assuming I would get the same numbers."

So instead of attacking, you could have just said yes we told him numbers but didnt mention it was a modded car nor that they were target numbers. I asked about tuning and you threw out numbers, how was i supposed to know those were from a modded car? Just bad miscommunication on both ends imo.

That's not bad. The sheet looks like a great tune, nice top end. I will post mine when I get off work tomorrow. Unless Scott can. Maybe he can put the before and after boost pill.

I wish I got the boost pill, sadly i didnt realize it wasnt part of the tuning. Hopefully they wont charge me an excessive amount to get it tuned once one is put in.

Everything from your post above indicates how set you are on numbers output.

We tune around three Evo's daily and reference vehicles we have already tuned and their results.

Never have we said, we have tuned vehicle "A" and your vehicle "B" should put out numbers just like it.

It appears from our perspective that you are so blinded by peak numbers and epeen material for your evom signature, that you have neglected to appreciate the 120% gains in performance your otherwise stock Ralliart RA has achieved with our tuning on the stock BCS.

so they flashed you AND use the z-chip on your car?

If you scan yours in we can host it. I don't have your sheet in front of me at the moment.

i called TTP a week or so ago, first time the phone rang they picked it up, i told them i just bought an evo and told him what i wanted to do and he gave me detailed description of specific parts and prices and installation prices, sounded like a cool guy on the phone, took his time to explain everything, i think TTP had great service over the phone, when i go in person will see, i just dont think anyone should attack a shop like this thread unless something horrible happend,

Well i feel like this was still a bit negative in tone, as I have stated just that. I looked straight at peeks and figured it wasn't what the money paid for. I have admit that, and if no one caught that here it is again. I dont know crap about modding/tuning. My only issue was with the new noise I was hearing on the way home, and it was more of an inquiry about what it might be, not so much a complaint. Hearing the other ralliart driver report on issues was the only reason I started to assume there must be something wrong with the tune.

When this issue is cleared up, I will be happy to report on what it was. As far as number, I am pleased with them and have no intention of getting rid of it (unless it is the cause of my problem).

Just wanted to give an update so I am not creating a false image on TTP.

I drove my car for 2 30 minute drives and could not reproduce the issue. Could have been something with that one run, no idea what it was still but it probably wont come back and I truly owe TTP an apology. While I did not post my issue with the noise i was hearing on hear to target TTP, I understand it created a negative response anyways. In my defense I was simply trying to get feedback on why I was hearing whatever it was.

As far as the numbers, I will give my response one last time. I didn't know anything about tuning before going into this, nor did I know any more when i saw the graph. I had some set numbers in my head i expected to see based on the conversation I had with the shop, however that was my fault for not asking for more information before getting the work.

I don't see any reason why I wouldnt do business with TTP again in the future (they even told me they would retune the car if i get a boost pill as I didnt realize it was without it).
