They have my business, and I've read a lot of posts about happy customers, so I doubt their worried. Plus, the're smart guys, and they know how to run a business. I hope they're doing as well as I think they are, because I plan on having my evo for a while.

I forgot to mention that I'm talking about Tuning Technologies.

So big for the afc. I've seen all the Al's flash did for the vegas guys.

I made more power on my Buschur stage 4 with the Buschur settings than one of our guys flashed with almost identical setup. About 10 more on the dyno baselined. He has a 272 intake cam and a test pipe over me.

That's good to hear. It seems like sometimes the truly nice people who won't sell you something that you don't need are the ones who get the shaft.

Using a SAFC to tune an evo is like using a sling shot to attack a bear
it might be limited compare to a flash or a standalone or even the Xede because it lacks of controlling time. but we can at least have a conservative tune with no problems, unlike other folks that have had issues in the past when it comes to tuning for 91 octane...

Since some cars with cams and TBE and SAFC have dynoed around 315ish on that dyno, those numbers are good. This board is full of ninnies who have no life and are looking for an excuse to vent their frustrations. DO you really think this Evo baselined at 280/250? I mean, come on. Those are good numbers along with the Precision Dyno UTEC results. The question becomes what will the cam options be for the MIVEC engine.
