DD is Dyno Dynamics.

 

Your car is fast as it is. The guy Alex was cool about it since he didnt do anything to the car

 

Yea but it could be a lot faster on race gas! OK thats good they didnt pay for it then. I plan to re-dyno but of course it will be when Im on a nice leaded tune.

 

These numbers from the 9 make me feel good about the numbers for my 8. I got 300 whp with a TBE, 2.5 inch test pipe (big mistake on that one), drop in filter and Xede on the same Tuning Tech dyno.

there is a shop in Mesa, AZ that is getting 312whp avg with evo IX's on 91 crapgas WITH a cat. it is not easy as 91 immediately starts to pull timing but it can be done & that is with an AFR of 11.5:1...

 

He made 270whp on a DD dyno. And 305whp on a Dynojet. That's pretty darn close to 15%.

Careful when comparing results from dynos at high altitudes. They use a big fat correction factor which tends to screw things up when comparing them with sea level dyno results. Depending on the car in question, these altitude adjusted numbers can either be over conservative to overly optimistic. Altitude corrections, unfortunately, are only reasonably accurate when talking about non-turbo cars.

altitude of Mesa, AZ is 1183ft...

 

Yeah, I got confused. I thought Adam made 295whp on the DD and then 305 on the DJ.

 

I wish I made 295 on a DD with my stock car lol. Im pretty sure just about everyone with an VIII would hate me even more then they do now....Shiv told me if the weather was cooler in GA at the time he could have hit 280 with the car on the DD but with the weather the way it was he did not want to risk it being to aggressive. [daydream] 295hp in a stock IX on a DD.[/daydream]

 

shiv, I am newbie when it comes to EVo EM.. I am looking for choices and now I am more confused than ever. At MOD I got to speak with a few tuners (WORKS, COBB, etc.) and many of them and others said that your mail in flashes are not conservative. I have a 9gsr converting from a STi. At tuning technologies I dynoed at 295whp @ 357wtq... I havent seen torque that high with evo's.. I guess my questions are:

a) are your mail in tunes conservative? what happens if I need to take the car to the dealership? would there be any downtime?
b) what would it take for me to reach higher torque #'s similiar to the STi? (headers, other mods etc)
c) how would you compare yourself with AMS, WORKS, Burschur & the Gruppe-S mail in tunes..?
d) Another tuner also said with a right tune a MBC is not needed.. is this true with the evo9?
thanks again for your time,

they probably said shivs OTS flahes are not conservative so you would look else where....

If you are concerned with OTS flashes, dont get one.....spend the little extra cash for a custom map and be happy with it ( i know I was, car was much faster with the cutom tune versus my COBB basemap). Mail-in tunes are ALWAYS hard to make....diff cars react differently to the map details. Shiv is a mad man when it comes to tuning....it like he turns into a different person when tuning a car. He is so focused and wants your car to run perfect when he is done with it.

You dynod 357trq and want MORE?

 

drew thanks for your response,

yeop that was with the STi with bolt on mods @ 91octane. I traded my car in and went with a evo9gsr. i am looking for something safe that could yield similiar results as the sti.

 

your 9 with a flash and tbe will be faster than your sti despite the lower torque. (9s make 330+ whp at TT with flash and tbe)

Id recommend a custom tune as it will be tailored to your car, therefore much safer as there can sometimes be car/car variances.
