Hey all, I just had my car worked on and tuned at TTR and this is what I came out with. To me it seems like I should have made more power for the parts that are in the car. I was expecting to be somewhere near 420-430hp. Keep in mind I am using the factory ECU and not an AEM. Let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Josh

how much boost???

 

Seems kinda low to me... I think you may have opened up your setup so much that the red has a hard time keeping up.

 

wow. im on stock block with full bolt ons, epm dump tube, 880 injectors, sparktech non-cdi ignition and stock mani and tb doin 459whp 402torq on dynojet at 25psi on 93 pump. Did you have a boost leak or something? was your ignition maxed out? how much boost was your car tuned on ? TTR dynojet is a high reading dyno as well. something is fishy about those numbers.

 

Sounds really low considering the mods and on a dynojet... Even stock ECU.

 

Look at this 25psi boost on pump gas https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/tu...big-power.html

 

that car has an AEM. stock ECU is a bit more difficult to tune for on a built motor.

op, you should also swap that MBC for a GM EBC.

 

Stock ecu can do the job. Some people are making over 700whp on stock ecu. It's all in the tuner.

 

Thanks, for the response guys, I am taking it back to the tuner today because I am getting random po300 codes. Something is definitely wrong.

 

Seems headflow is restricting yor peak numbers. Get some real cams maybe?
Still, area under the curve is impressive.

 

The stock ignition is maxed out on the FP RED. I was getting the same PO300 which means random multiple misfire. I changed the plugs and bought sparktech non-cdi coil on plug for 650 shipped. It made the car gain 21 whp and 29torq on my car. You need to upgrade your ignition like me or do hks dli2. But sparktech non-cdi is much better. Also, after that, they have to tune out the PO300 so it does not come back on. This is coming from a local nj guy with a fp red setup with full bolt ons. Let me know what you decide to do and what they tell you.

 

Why would it matter if its on stock ECU or AEM? It should tune pretty much the same. AEM may have more bells and whistles, but trust me you are not over working the stock ECU per say.

Id check into things a little closer though. What boost level?

 

take the car somewhere else.

 

^ Ouch!

We have made upwards of 490 on stock ignition with no issues. Sounds like there might be something else wrong, but it is pump gas. I'm so used to e85 numbers.

 

so whats wrong?? you said you took it back to TTR right? Mark wont do you wrong prolly just something simple. still didnt say how much boost?
