Here are my Dyno graphs from when I had catback and custom tune XEDE (with boost control peak of 21-22PSI)only:







and now, with P2 (peak boost about 19-20PSI), catback, and throttle body:









I know different dyno and different days, but I can't really tell a difference in the power of the two on the butt dyno, but the P2 with the throttle body feels like it hits sooner.

 

Look at the downhill slope after 6.4k on the vishnu graph and compared it to the shape of the WORKS graph.

 

I don't understand how they make roughly the same tq at 7000 rpms, but the works hp is much higher. Isn't tq what is actually measured and hp is just tq*rpm/5250. What am I missing?

Edit: Never mind. I was reading the scale wrong. They are pretty close in HP at 7000 rpm.

You hates you some WORKS huh?

 

He's hate everybody that runs something different from him. I think he hates AL with more of a passion however.

 

Wrong I likes Works. Just don't like faulty information. If Works tuned cars on a Dyno and extracted good power like other tuners i would respect their owners cars a lil more. However, for an untuned baseflash type operation they do okay IMO. Is Shiv's baseflash better? I really do not know or care. I do know that a car tuned on a Dyno and road will have a higher liklyhood of extracting maximum safe power. However, Works has a different philosophy and uses conjecture about a Dyno being no way comparable to actual street conditions etc. I agree in a small way but a Dyno is closer to real street power when compared to a flash w/o any test on each individual car. I also feel that Al also gets carried away with his base flash stuff. Heck without a boost controller and AFC what does Al's flash really do. I believe when he comes out here and tunes on our streets he is at a disadvantage and endangering innocent people. People in SO Cal that want a real tune from Al IMO need to set-up a Dyno day at a shop and see what he has. It seems that his road tunes are a hit and miss type thing out here and he needs to realize that when people eventually Dyno their cars they find out that butt dynos lie. My feeling is to extract max safe power Dyno and road combined is optimal. Works does not even offer part of the equation. Drink up! OUT!

 

Heck, look at the two dynos right before 4000 rpm. The Works is hitting sooner, but only by a couple hundred RPM. Like you said though, we are looking at two different dynos here so comparisons shouldn't be made. Why the switch from Vishnu to Works? If I would have went with one tuner I probably would have stuck.

 

You got to be kidding comparing data from 2 totally different dynos...

 

I switched because I wanted to run with the big boys.

 

Then how about switching over to a different forum too?

 

Here here.

IE EVO- please refrain from posting in this forum. you have said your mind now let it go. nobody is bashing anything and people just want to express their opinion. feel free to start a new thread if you feel like it.

thanks

Will do.
