Dynoed again and wasted...
#41
my best time last night was 13.92 @ 100.95 stock 17's, full interior including spare/jack etc etc, 1/2 tank gas, and hot lapping on my last run. My car fully cooled always traps 1mph faster and runs a little quicker. I can't wait to see what it does with the little tires and no interior.

I do have the TS flash didnt gain a thing. Last years 1/4 mi. run was 14.40@96.2 without the TS flash and HS headers but with the stock 17's. I am still considering having the ecu returned to stock.

Also, I know you pulled the filter, but I think the factory airbox, even with mods, is killing your top-end.
However, it may be worth it for you to have the extra hole shot with the auto.
Just something you *MIGHT* try one of these days?

at the end of the day, a dyno is just a bunch of details on paper. I say keep it if you get better times with ur slicks+gutted setup.

I do know an intake ***might*** help out top end a little but last night was the first night I have ever gained 20mph in the last 1/8th on street tires. Its always been 20-21 on slicks b/c of the gearing but on street tires its always been 19mph maybe one or two with 20mph gained. Plus I drive a lot in the city and can't stand the low end loss I feel with intakes and the noise would be unbareable.

Get a PR CAI then...should keep the low end, yet allow your engine to breath on the top end and be QUITER then stock.

Why take it out at all based on what you are saying since it will do more harm than good. Definitely pointless let alone stupid no doubt!

If my ride don't live up to your build up I am holding you TOTALLY responsible.
There is no escape, so keep your fingers crossed that I have another one of those factory $#%^*&'s that everyone that has a slow car says we have.

ok well i was the first to get the ts ecu as most of you know. All i know is that my car dynoed at 203whp and my tq was 245. also i was wondering blubyu2k2 what mods do u have???? also if you have?????
all i know is that my car is more powerful then before. and now i have the GAB and there is a big increase (butt dyno). sometime dynos dont really mean **** because there are so many factors that come into play. any way i just looked at your list of mods and i can see that you have headers. this might be the problem you need it to run richer. tell danny to do this for you. also what kind of gas r u using. In my experience all i have to say is that i stand behind TS ecu 100 %. Because it worked for me. i will re dyno. my hp numbers were low because i was running a little to rich. well got that fixed and going to re dyno.

it really could be the gas in the east. winter gas is different. it just suxs. i will dyno soon and let everyone know the gains because im so sure of gains. also its very hard to dyno an auto. the person needs to know what they are doing.

I will be getting a dyno of the my car with the TS ECU on 4/4 . The only other thing I have done to it is an OBX catback. I had a GAB+K&N but I returned it to stock and reset the ECU 2 weeks ago. I am not sure what you have done to your car but mine is pretty close to stock so it may make a difference. If I do not see the kind of power increase I want I am getting a refund and we can then safely say the TS ECU is crap.
#63
really i thought juice told ts to make his ts ecu run richer becuase of headers. not really sure dont quote me but i love the ts and i stand my ground 100 %. ill re dyno soon too and post as well
#64
also there is only like one flash. and then they fine tune the program to you you want it at. i was running to rich so i got it leaned out. danny told me that with headers the AFR changes a lot. talk to juice. he know more
#65
Ok, 1badmax is only half right in that we made no gain. We did make area under the curve increases, but no peak #. I can tell you from driving the car before and after, the car managed to take .2 sec off a Gtech measured 1/4mi. I dont know how accurate it is, but it does show some gain. Most of the gain you will see is at the track, not on the dyno...

And Ice I will post the graphs when I get them...

The auto does work, but you need a greddy e manage to tune it. TS cannot tune the ECU without it being in a car and on a dyno. I managed to pick up like 6hp across the curve and something like 4 lb-ft. Yes, they could have done better. I and some other .org members are working with TS to fix the problem and hopefully get more gains.
Also, it seems that those who went to headers have trouble gaining power. I think it could be the fact that the headers themselves are very free flowing, and that the amt of air going in does not match the amt coming out.

Blu, thats right. Where the A/F ratios werent touched, you didnt gain any HP. Thats the essence of what they did. They adjust the AFR to maximaize HP. Studman and I figured out that they didnt do it right. We are sending them the info that we came up with, so that maybe they can fix the flash file and maybe make more gains.
BTW, how are the HS headers??

Yes and no. Without the TS ecu, you couldnt get the same power by tuning the AFR. This is mostly because of the fact that the maximas ecu has that homo self correcting feature. TS flash diminishes this effect. When I put mine on, I gained area under the curve. It seems that the people who told TS that they had headers gained nothing. I told them I was totally stock, even though I have a PR CAI and UDP. Just have them flash it back to what a stock maxima should have and try it again. If it doesnt work, then return it.

So, I guess you're NOT going to post the dyno?
Oh well, you and the bandwagoneers can bash them all you want based on ONE "suspect" dyno, yet you got better 1/4-times.
That just means less 2K2 ECUs for Danny to work on and more time to get mine rolling.

I hope you get the ECU soon b/c the 3.0 will benefit much more from the raised rev limiter alone.

My bad...from your latest post, sounded like you had them, but were hoarding the goods.
The REST of the members who are jumping to conclusions are the bandwagoneers NOT the guy who took it in the azz.
Just make sure you post them when you get a chance, overlayed with the HS header one if possible.
Thanks.

There is no bandwagoners here if you trying to treat me as one, and Im not bashing anyone Im just saying the only place I got power was from were they leaned out the a/f curves. Everything else was almost a direct overlay. I saw it at the shop, and Im getting better 1/4 times maily b/c of the headers b/c they proved on the dyno to make a lot more power peak and throughout the rpm range.
