Dyno

Final Impressions

After driving for a couple weeks, we really enjoy the improved throttle response and gains in the mid-range. The car feels to pull better at higher RPMs but our dyno plot shows only a modest 3.3 whp gain. There is a max gain of 9.1 whp around 5K rpms. The dyno run was performed in 95 degree heat and without letting the tune adapt. We believe it could add a few more HP by allowing the car to cool down more and with some ECU learning. At the end of the day, not bad numbers for a 2.7L N/A motor from just an adjustment to the software calibration. We believe the role of tuning will grow with the upcoming intake and exhaust modifications we will be doing. Subscribe to our YouTube channel for the latest!
