Turbo Trix vs Dynoflash >,<

What are the differences in the two flashes. I am installing cams..fuel pump...mbc along with my turboback. I can't really decide on which one to get because i hear good things about both. I do have a tendacy to go visit TT to get it tuned because i heard they do a great job.....Come on guys pursuade me to one...right now i am leaning on TT

I'm very satisfied with TurboTrix. Mark has flashed and reflashed my ECU. Now that I've added more, I'm ready for him again.

I believe Al can control boost with his flash, no need for a mbc.

A MBC will NOT get you better gas mileage, it will just make your car slower when you turn it down..

well if you lower psi to 11psi would that in return slow your car down and help in gas mileage? seems logical ..why not?

Good luck with that theory of saving gas. I think when you put the mods on it's just going to make you drive faster and harder. Good luck with who ever you use, keep us posted in your progress.

From: somewhere testing various tires, brakes, and suspensions.
TurboTrix all the way. Just actually got back to my place. 318 whp on my car, see my sig. for the list. Car is ridiculously, spoon-bending, mind-numbing fast. Top notch all the way, all of the guys. I highly recommend them, or at the least give them a call, talk to Mike, and tell him what you are looking for and he can give you the lowdown on what to generally expect.

Thanks agian TurboTrix, driving just got a whole lot more fun.

lowering boost does not save gas.. all it will do is use more gas if you need to step on it.. turbos, or boost, do not rob horsepower, or gas milage, a heavy foot does..

i don't think that lowering boost will save you gas either. at least it hasn't worked for me. going across country will give you the best gas milage you can get anyway. I will say though that before Dynoflash the most I was ever able to get out of a tank full was 220 miles. Post Dynoflash I've gotten 260.

cool thanks for the replies! The statement about running lower boost to save gas was just a guess and i believe you guys are right....

I am about 99% going towards TT now because of ther reputation of tuning. PLus i need to head to NJ to see a girl Its only 525 miles from me.

I am trying to see 340awhp 330-335awtq with the Hks 272, fuel pump, mbc, helix tb and flash
