I would go Turbotrix so they can play with the cam settings and see what gives them the most power. Dynoflash is good but im not sure if you will get the performance that TT will probally get Unless you have AL custom tune it

Dave: Hrm...I'm going to be in belair tonite I fly into baltimore at 8pm and was going to let you see what a dynoflash car feels like with those same exact mods. Mine put down 301whp with 264/264's but I've got a few more mods than the ones you listed. But since someone vandelized my car my right front headlight does not work so I dont want to get her out.

However I'm in bel-air everyweekend to see my gf in my black evo if you wanted to meet up and check out what a dynoflash will run like. I've called turbo trix and they are saying my numbers are very very low and should be around the 345 mark....However Al tunes on the side of caution so nothing wrong with that.

I'm interested in picking up some valve springs / retainers and some headstuds but TT quoted me $1100 to install them and wow no way can I afford that right now.

good luck and let me know if you wanna meet up.

Dynoflash custom tune all the way. You want a safe a/f ratio right?

For your installs you should expect to pay approx. $300 to $400 total. I'm lucky evoeilvegas knows his stuff so I got a hook up.

I also wanted to say if you want the most power from your new mods do not go with a mail in flash.

I would also suggest a custom tune.

The way i work it is you pay a flat $399 for the flash which includes enough unlimited dyno time to dial in the car 100% - I then provide a road test to confirm a proper tune.

There are numerous case study postings in my section of the forum which specifically outline exactly how I tune the cars

Thanks for your inquiry

I figure either would be fine. I use Turbo Trixx but then again they are only 30 Mins from my house

Cam install and fuel pump install is $350. Not sure about head studs, prolly about $50. I had my cams and FP done there though so I would know
