Al, there is no Hooters around your listed address but I did find a Hampton Inn near 290 and Bingle with a Hooters across the freeway. I guess the address you meant to post was:

12909 Northwest Freeway, Houston, TX 77040
Tel: 1-713-939-7100 Fax: 1-713-939-0088

Flash

Hey Al,

you did a pretty good job on the flash, the car pulls harder from 4200 upwards. Engine response has been improved but I think I still made more power with the sAFCII even though It was running 12.2AFR compared to 11.4\5AFR.I guess its better to be safe than sorry. All in all I think the flash is the best way to go with stock ECU and no ems\piggyback.


Thanks,
OA

holy chit dude you were running 12.2 A/F on pump gas!!

You were probably making alittle more whp with the SAFC2 but I'm pretty sure you gained aboout 30 - 40wtq with the reflash over the SAFC2. Your car runs smoother and your A/F is alot safer now. Definately worth $299. You can use your SAFC2 to fine tune the dynoflash if you add mods.

Howdy Houston Members - thanks for the excelent turn out on Saturday

It was a lot of fun on Friday during our little drive around the loop - that was a blast

You have a great crew down there in Houston and a real nice car club, I do not think that any other city i have been to has such a devoted and close nit evo community as you guy do

I am still sick from all the C16 fumes last night tuning Howard's AEM for 4 hours - don't mess with his car - its super fast.

BYW - I am giving Masterevo a free retune with flash or AEM which ever on the next trip back there as I feel really bad we had to cut his tune a bit short (after over 3 hours) due to a oil leak. Sometimes the worst stuff happens to the best people.

Thanks again guys!

PS - Look out for member Monica - oyr first ever Female custom tune customer and without a doubt the fastest non cam evo i have ever driven. Monica let me tell you now - get some head studs in that beast

If you look on the staged evo packages at www.buschurracing.com you will find some comparision dyno sheets between SAFC tuning and the reflash on Buschur Stage 3 & 4

In most case - the reflash can yield much more tq and a much smoother power band - even though a SFAC tuned properly can make just as much peak power

In your case - the ignition timing log on the SAFC showing - 3 degrees of timing at 3800 rpms would yield a very low tq reading and a rough mid range

On the stock ecu's anything over 11.5 a/f will result in the ecu pulling timing - and in many cases we need to run down at 11.0 to get a smooth curve

Nice to meet you - best of luck with the dyno shop - thanks for your help talking my way out of hot watre with the cops
