I've been around for a bit, no worries about that =-)

I never knocked your tuning abilities, you have been around longer than everyone on here, dont get me wrong I am a fan. I even bought your cams that added a little lobe to my exhaust. I think we're all in doubt that this car will perform, and we're allowed to comment and ask questions.

Whether you've heard of me or not doesn't matter, I offer a good service for a reasonable cost. I wish I could charge only $100, but the cost is $150 if you'd like to refer customers wanting E-Flashs to me, I'd appreciate it.

I'm glad you got your .02 in, thats all it was worth. I'm puzzled how you made this power with average boost and a rich afr. Maybe you can teach me something one day. Until then I'd say im doing a hell of a job doing things my way.

I just want to repeat that im not knocking your skills, just wondering how youre making every other car on the forums with more mods look slow.

Cheers!

I've never heard of you, the fact that you offer 100 dollar tunes via email is your claim to fame then so be it.

The very fact that the car made so much is the reason why we posted the graph, its odd to us with the minimal mods it made soo much. Do you think if it was an average car i would take the time to post a graph ???????????

I have been doing this for a long time i take offence to be compared to some person who spent 80 dollars and calls himself a tuner.

I am 1 of 8 advanced tuners in the country ( aem ) that were hand chosen for this class. People like larry for sound performance, lance from toyomoto, joeb from turbo people, justin for tuning concepts, devin pierce (now aem ) .. these people are real tuners

Keep your posts to your own forum ... OH yeah you dont have one.. if you dont have something good to say .. then dont say it.

CHEERS

wow i cant believe how many haters in the forums lately. Ive been tuned by mark many times and got awesome numbers. Im not sure about the exact number i put down last time but i know it was lil over 4xxwhp and 4xxawtq. I took it to track i did 11.6 /118..I just dont have my dyno chart maybe Mark can pull that up and also bunch of ppl saw me do that number and somebody has in on video..
Great numbers bro enjoy the car and screw the haters..

We used 2 seperate boost gauges from 2 seperate boost sources. We didn't believe it was only 25 psi either.

I love it when peoples defense is "hater". Skepticism and hating are two different things. Everyone that has made 400whp has had more mods, more boost, and alot more octane. The ones screaming haters are just uninformed and blind. If this car traps 120 or redynos somewhere else at 400whp, I will say congrats. Until then, its just another fantasy

FWIW, I had my new Z06 dynoed yesterday & the SAE#s were 26 less than uncorrected--and obviously it's an NA car that wouldn't benefit as much as a turbo in cool, dense air.
Exactly what I was going to say and also having the Balance Shafts removed adds about 8-10 whp aswell.

It's cause he's a backyard "tuner" with no real engineering experience.

I don't like to say BS on the forums or anything like that, it's not in my nature, but these number do seem inflated to me.



Lets compare something here. Number one, please, the bro thing is a little over done in the video... I was born in Paterson and I don't even use it that much .



Now that I don't believe I must be crazy.. You making all that power running rich now... Oh common...
The "Bro" thing in the video was a joke....hence the reason I used it so much. Apparently you have never seen a video from Al. Some cars just make more power than other cars with the same setup. This car happens to be a freak of nature. It just keeps pulling all the way to redline. The front of the car stays up....unlike most Evo's with a stock turbo that start to nose dive. This car has been on the dyno 2 different times and both times put down numbers that we couldn't believe ourselves. We recorded the video because we knew that people wouldn't believe it. BTW, My evo X just made 224whp on our "high" reading dyno.
