I managed to lose my good camera and can't afford a new one yet because most of my spare budget went into the turbo, but I managed to take this with my cell phone. You can make out the essentials.

Boost is between 8.5 and 9 and the AFR is roughly 11.5. In addition to the stock kit, I have the following relevant mods.

Greddy Type RS BOV
Greddy E01 Boost Controller
Ultimate Racing Dual 2.5" exhaust
Ultimate Racing 2.5" high flow cat

All of the tuning was done using the included EManage Ultimate on a Dyno Dynamics Load Bearing Dynamometer at PTuning in Manassas Va. This dyno reads between 8 - 15 % lower than a dyno jet, and Toan the tuner told me their dyno is 12% lower on average. This would be about 314whp on a DynoJet.

I'm so glad to finally have my car running like I envisioned when I bought the turbo. Its about time!

 

sweet to see it making some power, but i think you need some more tuning. that dipsy doodle around 6k needs to be smoothed out. you;ll gain even more power, though not peak power. curve should be smoother then it is.

 

 

So your E-Manage came unlocked from Greddy? I thought that the maps included with the kit were locked by Greddy.. I have been looking at getting this kit but have been worried about being able to have the car tuned. I want to run about 10psi.

 

The included base map is locked, but you can upload new maps into it. In my case Ptuning requested a new map from Greddy and he loaded it into the emanage. You can freely edit maps you upload yourself.

As far as the dip in the curve, I had already been at the shop for 2 full days and over 8 hours in the waiting room on Saturday alone, because the car ahead of me on the dyno was having "issues". Friday was devoted to replacing my turbo and re-installing the kit, so no time for tuning then. Toan specifically mentioned the difficulty he had in trying to remove the dip on my particular car, but we ran out of time last night as I had to get home and the shop was only open because I was there. The car drives exactly like the dyno curve on the road, and is so much smoother than it used to be its ridiculous. I'll talk to them next week and see if its even worth my time to head back down just to work on the dip. I may just wait until my next mod to do that. I also agree that the peak power is not going to change.

 

raise vtec a little and see what happens.

 

No kidding. It seems to want the low cams for another 1krpm or so.

Be easy to do a pull on just the low cams to see where it falls off.

 

this would be interesting to see!

 

Next time I'll try this and we'll see. Should be interesting. I'll dig up this thread at that time and update it.

 

Yup, raise vtec a little and you will gain power in the curve.
