i recently purchased a Evo IX thats been tuned by dynoflash. the tune is for 93Oct but my city only has 91 octane. i want it retuned soon but for the time being is there some sort of alternative that i can use other than purchasing race gas?

thanx in advance

 

Send me in the ecu - its $100 to change the map to the fuel you are using - be sure to enclose a list of mods

The details are on the contact page at www.dynoflash.com

The $100 includes fed exd return shipping

thank you for your fast response sir... i get paid on the 15th and i will be sure to do that...also my "launch control" is set to 5000, im wondering if it should be higher?

 

He'll take care of whatever needs taking care of. Launch control, rev limit, ect...

 

If it has a Dynoflash tune, then it shouldn't have launch control at 5000rpm, because that's stock. There's only certain cases where a Dynoflash doesn't include raised launch control (BR stages, BR 330/350, etc.).

 

Not to jack the thread, but i currently live in an area with 93 oct and im moving to an area with 91 in june. I want to go ahead and get it tuned. Would it be alright to go ahead and get it tuned for 91 and run 93 oct or should i just wait to get tuned once i get out to Reno?

 

The 91 Oct will be fine untill you re tune. You probably want to stay away from full throttle driving untill you get yer ecu back. It wont hurt the car, but if it makes you feel any better just dump 2 or 3 gals of race gas in the tank untill the 15th.

 

Tuned for 93 and running 91: performance will be

I wouldn't run it either way for too long but you won't really "hurt" anything. Just be conservative with boost and don't stay WOT for extended amounts of time.

 

i have a boost controller, should i turn it down? also i heard i could put xylene or toulene in the tank to help raise octane atleast until i send the ECU off, is this true?

 

i thought he didnt do launch control on mail ins

 

how can you turn up the boost via ecu dynoflash ?????????

 

i bought the car with these mods and i seen the boost controller under the hood, not sure if the boost controller is set higher than what the ecu is set to thru dynoflash...if that makes any sense...lol, the person i bought the car from said it was set to 22psi or so.

 

When you add a MBC, you are bypassing the stock boost control solenoid. So, the boost levels set in the ECU won't matter.

 

so basically if i turn the boost up or down via the boost controller the ecu will not fight it??? excuse the noob questions but i came to the evo world from an STi and if you put a boost controller on a STi the ecu will fight it all day long
thanx for all your help.

 

Hey Chino. You are correct. The boost controller takes over the boost levels and this will work fine with the ecu.
