My IX MR SE tuned by AL! Stage 1 mods! 340whp, PERFECT!
My IX MR SE tuned by AL! Stage 1 mods! 340whp, PERFECT!
Yesterday, i took a 3.5 hour road trip over to ICS performance in CT.
And i had my car tuned by Al of Dynoflash.
My mods are in my sig.
Here is a link to my car's Dyno Plot.

My car is the second car in the link.
Anyway...on to the review.
Al really went above and beyond in the tuning of my IX. He was really busy and had a lot of random things he had to get done at the shop but still took the time and energy to really make the car perfect.
Al started off by dyno tuning my car and the car made an impressive 340whp and 328wtq on 21 psi and pump 93 octane gas from mobil
Then Al took my car for a very long road tune and test drive, to perfect the tune for the street.
When Al returned with my car, the car was tuned on 21psi and it holds the full 21psi right around to 7200rpms where is slowly tapers off.
The car has ZERO knock, all the way to redline.
When i left it was night time and i had a 3.5 hour ride home from CT to NH, so i wasnt able to really go too crazy, in fear of getting a speeding ticket or being arrested in unfamiliar land, lol
But the times i did get on the gas, i couldnt stop smiling. I have a few friends with IX and VIII's and ive driven most of them and ive NEVER been in another evo stage 1 evo, that ran this strong and this smooth!
the car is so smooth it is unbelievable.
If anyone is considering a tune from AL of dynoflash, dont consider it anymore, just do it! GO!
Al has a unique personality, that sometimes can throw you for a loop, but he is a good guy and dedicated to his work and tunes your car to be safe and as fast as your car allows.
A lot of tuners, will just slap the car on the dyno, make big numbers and hand you the keys, irregardless of the fact that the car is knocking and running like ****.
Al doesnt do that, he tunes the car to be SAFE!
Yesterday when i went in for my tune, there was another guy there with a black IX GSR. He had intake, a BOV, a MBC, and a DP.
the car made like 317whp after the tune from AL.
The kid took the car for a ride and wasnt happy with it, despite the fact that the car was making more power than before and safely!
I have one thing to say about this. If you slap random parts on your car and crank the boost controller up, so that your car feels fast without a tune, all you're doing is making a $30k time bomb.
A lot of people think that a tune is, making the most power out of the car possible.
A tune is called a tune, because you are tuning the car so that it runs as safely and smoothly as it car, WHILE making the most power possible at that safe level.
If you have a stock IX, slap a MBC on it, set it to 24 psi, yes you are making more power, but it is by NO means safe! If the car feels the same or slower after you get tuned, it is because the car is now safe, where before you had a grenade with the pin removed!
anyway, back on topic. Thanks Al!
the car is perfect! A+ to AL!
A+ to the guys at ICS of stamford CT. The guys at ICS are all really cool guys and actually care what YOU want from your car and have the knowledge and experience to make it happen!
If anyone look like a ride in my IX MR SE, to feel this awesome tune, just shoot me a PM, i live around manchester NH.
thanks again to AL

Now that your car is flashed by al you cant go to a differnt tuner for a flash with out lots of leg work. Al locks the programs so they are unusable by anyone else. He also put a evo 8 map on my evo 9. Going from a flash by al (not a custom one just a mail in to be fair) to a custom flash by beyond redline i gained a sold 14awhp and the car runs much better.
yes i would check if he locked it, if else u go ask him to unlock. Al said he intentionally locks it to protect the tune but wont if you request.
personally i want the ability to tweak on the fly or simply learn from a pro.... i dont see anything wrong w/ that.

If anyone has a changed initializer code it is simple to get the free ecu unlocker and that will open any Evo ecu
I am pleased to learn that you made 14 whp over a base flash with a custom tune - I would think that is expected and normal
Thanks
Al
I have placed certain minor protections on mail in flashes and others in the past to prevent dealers from over writing the refalshes when the cars go in for service
Anyone can use the free ecu unlocker to get inside any evo ecu
