It's a mail tune, you send him logs and he modifies them, sends it back to you, then you do logs again and etc etc. The cycle continues until mellon feels that the tune is the best it can be. But if you wanted a road tune or something he is in Tennessee.

Last I heard, they have an AWD dyno at E-motor on the westside of indy. All you need to do, is book some dyno time and take your tuner up there with you and let him go at it.

That said, somebody who knows what they are doing will be able to do a better job with a road tune because the load at the wheels and the intercooler efficiency is real, not simulated like on a dyno. Its just not as quick and convenient as dyno.

Why can you say that fathouse? I was planning on using their dyno and wants some feedback from some ppl before driving down. You can pm me if you feel comfortable doing that. Thanks

I know the whole E-Motor parts operation is ghetto as all hell. With all sorts of Chinese knock off crap. So obviously stay away from their parts. But that said, I was thinking if you rent dyno time and take your own tuner with you, there shouldn't be any issue right?

Altho I've never done it I'm just guessing. Perhaps Fathouse has some bad experience with that dyno they have...

I've been viewing the forum for a few months now. I got my Evo 9 MR back in January and been trying to learn what I can since.

Just thought I'd check in and say 'yo.'
