I got a custom flash tune last Friday night on Super Rupair's dyno in Boulder by Justin from Cheyenne. Justin is a well know tuner for the area if you have not heard of him. I was only tuned with an SAFC-II and put down 271WHP for my baseline, for those who don't know the Dyno Dynamics dyno is a low reading dyno and those are UN-CORRECTED numbers, I did 312WHP corrected at Carz with my SAFC tune. After that pull, Justin noticed that not only did my boost spike at almost 22.5 lbs., but my car was knocking a little down low and above 6000rpm it got really high.

After that he flashed a base map of his that was similar to my mods and turned down the boost to 21 lbs., and went from there making changes to fit my car better. The end result was 270.9WHP and 278 Ft-lbs.. Now, some may look and say "he didn't make any more power", but when you look at it, he made the same power I was at before, but on 1.5lbs. less boost, my car had NO knock, and the mid range power came up lot and was definetely noticable when I drove it. After driving my car around town for a bit, I noticed how much smoother it felt as well.

So if anyone is looking to get a custom flash done by someone that really cares about your car, and getting it tuned right and is a really good tuner, get a hold of Justin. He is willing to come down when ever you have the time and will tune where ever you would like. I would like to thank Harvey at Super Rupair for staying late on a Friday night to accommodate for my schedule.
If anyone is interested, let me know and I can get ahold of Justin for you.

 

Justin's a good guy!

 

your car was already smooth...how much smoother does it need to be

I guess I will have to take another ride.

 

Yeah you will, it's crazy how much better it feels and it really pulls like a champ.

 

Thanks for the kind words guys!

I've already expressed my thanks to NickSalerno80 for allowing me to tweak on his ECU in the RMEvo.com forum but thought I should acknowledge here as well.

Still enjoying everything?

 

Yup, everything feels great!!

 

I've worked with a few "top tier" tuners over the last couple of years, and Justin is head and shoulders above anyone I've seen. His meticulous tuning style and bulldog determination in getting it right truly set him apart from the crowd. In fact, Justin, you should consider doing long-distance flashes so that people all over the world can benefit from your expertise.

 

justin is the man i send everyone i can to him and will continue to

 

Certainly a very nice guy. I had the opportunity to meet him yesterday at a local meet.
Unfortunately, he was extremely focused on tuning a number of EVOs in attendance... not like I could get my Eclipse tuned now, anyway. My (Fed Spec) ECU hasn't been cracked.

(If any locals have upgraded to a standalone, or otherwise have an extra EVO 8 ECU, please PM me... )
