Buschur Flashed........WOW.

Well guys Al from Dynoflash came to our shop today.

We (here at Buschur Racing) thought that with the timing work that he had been doing and our extensive AFR knowledge that we could get the best of both worlds from flashing the EVO ECU's.

Man were we right!!! NO BS here. The flash after 8 hours of dyno work has proven to be really unbelieveable.

We started out with the car in Stage 4. Our staged upgrades can be found on our website.

With the AFC, race gas and 21.5 psi of boost the car made 380.8 whp and 349.1 ft bls of torque. The curve looked really good.

We then removed the AFC from the car and started tuning with just the flash. The peak HP numbers weren't quite as high BUT the power under the curve in both HP and torque were unbelievable. We ended up with 371.4 whp and a HUGE HUGE 372.8 ft lbs of torque. This is a gain of 23.7 ft lbs!!

We then drained the tank of fuel to make sure we were on nothing but STRAIGHT 94 octane pump fuel. We put the stock fuel pump back in the car and swapped the stock injectors back in.

With the AFC back on we made 356 whp and 290 ft lbs of torque.
We then went to work with the flash. After more tuning we were able to make 346.4 whp and a huge gain in torque up to 329.3. This is a 39.3 ft lb gain in torque. These runs on pump gas were made with the boost at 20 psi, NOT over.

The car runs SWEET like this. I am amazed at what Tym, Al and myself were able to come up with. This flash is the way to go.

The flash is undetectable by the dealer, no wiring, nothing additional to add.

I am going to get these curves posted up on our website.

I want you to all look at some things for me when they are up.

Compare some of these other "shops" out there with our charts.

Forget all the flat out bull**** being tossed around about who has the best dyno. Forget that part. Just compare the curves. These guys claiming to be expert tuners aren't impressing us. You can look at our AFC tunes on our site right now and see what they are suppose to look like with the right parts combination and tuning. The HP shouldn't fall off as the RPM's raise, some of the curves I am seeing from these so called tuners look like downhill ski slopes! You will see ours are uphill to the end of the pull or atleast flat.

Check it out for yourself. Hell, you can use our AFC charts up now and see. Just wait until we post the flash results.

We are offering the flashes for our staged upgrades ONLY. The flash is $399. All of them will include eliminating the fuel cut and the tune for the stage you have. There are other options but it will be up to you if you want the speed limiter taken out and the rev limiter removed or changed.

Great things are happening guys, climb aboard.

David, i just ordered your complete stage 4 kit with 272's and am awaiting one more package from you. If i wanted to pursue having the ECU flashed, would i have to send you the ECU or take my car to Al? I live in central NJ.

Hey David, I purchased an AFC II from you a while back and have misplaced the settings. My car is running way to rich and is idling very bad, and I also have a problem with fuel cut. Could this be because of the AFC settings are wrong?

Thanks,
Eric Cross

BTW: Great job on JoJo's innercooler!!! A++++

daily drivable?

ok so after the stage 4 and everything, how does the car idle and daily drive? i have had people ( Heh hum STi owners (local) tell me not to get buschur stuff because hes like dude what they are gonna do to yur car will make it fast as hell but it will be a terrible daily driver and not for **** in stop n go traffic and he said the idle would be **** too, which it already is gooffy from just my hks bov and suction kit...

whats your thoughts on that David? I guess i would have to put around in one to see if i like the kit and if i do then hell ya i will take the kit! i just havnt read ne thing about the daily drivability of it thats all...

The dynoflash option impresses me each time I read about it. I will definitely have to go that route in the future.

Why were you able to get higher hp #'s with the SAFC? I would think the flash would have the capabilites to extract more hp than an SAFC. Were the a/f ratios between the safc and flash the same?

Compare the results of a AWD car, converted to front wheel drive, tested on the most optimistic inertial dynamometer in the world, running on 94 octane to a AWD car tested on an AWD load bearing dyno on CA 91 octane? Come on Dave, did Al help you write this?

Cheers

PS. Dave, are you coming to CA next month for the shootout?
