I don't see why your stressing over the numbers, the purpose of a dyno is to see your gains from the mods, and it certainly looks like you made quite an improvement with that flash over your baseline. Take it to the track and have some fun!

RNM and i went to the dyno togther and i put down between 304 and 320whp with between 297 and 310 wtq at a steady 21psi on 93 octane with the buschur stage 1 kit (including flash) over the course of 3 runs. The temp was 93 degrees and 36% humidity.

Wow your whining about that? You should be an VIII owner....we cant do that with those little of mods? You wont be slow, and if you want to squeeze some more out of it get a cutom tune done?

Also what does it matter what you push at the crank, nobody cares about that....what counts is at the wheels and 322 whp is pretty nice if you ask me, dont be so greedy!

They dont have the flashing software updated to support the IX all you can do is load it with the cable and back-up your factory map for safe keeping....ECUFlash is new and will be capable of great things, just be patient they will have IX support before you know it.....in the meantime go to the ecuflash page and read and learn about it

Guys, let me clarify a few things, since we have a few newbies who aren't up to speed on the IXs, and we have MrMejia who has gone dainbramaged on us.

First off, yes, these numbers are low compared to other IXs. You have a good MBC, and a good tune, but I don't know if the exhaust is good or not. Not every IX will be as powerful as the next. The funny thing is that you are disappointed in these numbers when they are still much higher than VIIIs with those mods. Some VIIIs with cams barely make that power.

Yes, Mr. Mejia, of course that's WHP. Why would you think he got crank HP off the TT Dynojet. The numbers aren't even high, so I'm not sure why you'd think they were too high for WHP. As StiKiller said, other IXs with those mods have seen anywhere from 340-355whp on that same dyno.

StiKiller, EcuFlash is the freeware that requires a $90 cable, but the software doesn't work with IXs. They weren't talking about regular flashes not being compatible with IXs.

Thank you Warr for clarifying the last part, and the tbe, maybe that is it? who knows? Could it also be because of the "tuner" that tuned my evo? I thought turbotrix is a very reputable place.

i also forgot, they said that it was MAYBE because i didn't have a bigger fuel pump?? is this true? more fuel = more boost? i'm not sure. The ix fuel pumps are bigger than viii's, so i thought unless i went with cams, i didn't need one? but maybe i should have put one in before my tune~ oh well -.-

You gained 37whp and 38wtq and you can barely feel it

When I flip from my 91 map to my 101 map, I gain approx 30whp. I can sure as hell feel that. If there's one thing I've learned from tuning cars, have low expectations and you'll never be disappointed.

One thing im sure is the car runs so smooth and the powerband is so smooth it doesnt feel like much to your butt, but the good test is "at the track" comparing to other friends cars and actually seeing the improvement as you pull on them like you didnt before.....

DUDE!!
you have that much power and you're complaining?
I have a Accord that has about 180WHP (if i'm lucky)
You'll smoke any car out there man. Chill
With 10 mods I can't even get to over 200WHP and you only did 3 !!
Honda SuckS!!
