no possible way, you'll gain about 20whp from just a flash

im pretty sure that is impossible.. i have heard stock 9's tuning close to 300.. havnt heard too much higher than that.. but who knows.. but i dont think anywhere close to 335 is at all possible without mods considering im at 347 with mild modding

if you did free mods like removing the boost restrictor pill and some high octane gas....you could pump the boost up with the WGA could you not?


i'm stupid when it comes to stock cars so if that wouldnt work tell me I'm dumb =p

It's funny that companies like Vishnu don't get called on their BS more often.

http://www.vishnutuning.com/evoIX_Subzero_v380.htm

They say 100hp (to the crank I assume) with JUST a XFlash Reprogrammed ECU and a Passive Boost Solenoid Emulator.

With 100hp added to the crank wouldn’t that be around 75hp to the wheels? According to the stock dyno numbers, that would put a stock + xflash 9 at around 325 to 335 to the wheels.

Has ANYONE on this board actually done this mod to a stock 9 and dynod back to back with no other mods?

No dynos, but I can compare two IX's that I personally know the owners and watched run last summer.

Subject One was dyno'd at 261 on a dynojet bonestock. He ran 13.31-33 all day long at 104-105.

Subject Two was never dyno'd, just flashed and was running 107-107.5

Both cars were full weight (minus spare and tools), no boost modifications, stock exhaust.

I have a flashed Stock IX< it is MUCH faster, but the bug has bit me and so I must mod on. You can easilly squeeze 40WHP in JUST a tune, much more if you add an MBC.

107.5 is about 300awhp on a dynojet near sea level.

107.5mph is closer to 280whp on a Dynojet if driven well. 300whp gets you 12.26@110 .

Well, you're a little confused. That is not just a stock IX with a flash. When you mess with the boost in addition to the tune, you can get really nice gains. Claiming 100 crank HP is a big stretch, and I don't agree with it, but they know that most people are dumb and don't know the difference in WHP and HP. I hear people all the time claiming "XXX HP" without even realizing that it's just a wild *** guess.

Anyway, a fully stock IX can make over 300whp on a Dynojet if tuned with race gas aggressively, but unless you modify the boost hoses to gain more boost, you won't have enough to make 335whp in MOST cases.

FWIW, I ran 12.8@106.3 with just a self-tuned SAFC on my 05. Yay me!
