Dyno tune > Road tune. No offense to Kunal.

You did it backwards.

Get a dyno tune first. A dyno tune is used to simulate ideal conditions however, as we all know conditions vary each day. A street tune should be completed after a dyno tune in order to work out any kinks and fully perfect the tune.

Just got back from AMS and all I can say is wow! I can't believe how much a proper tune can make such a difference in performance!

Max whp: 304.05
Max wtq: 307

Max boost: 24

I couldn't be more happy with the results of the tune. Thanks again AMS! I will be back once I have more monies
