Apexi Finally Tuned!!!

What up homies!!

Well today I took a trip down to NRG Tech in West Babylon to get the APexi Tuned. I must say... for a hot humid day.. results were Great!!

I picked up an extra 9HP and 2TQ from her!!

Here is the final conditions:

88.19 degrees
11% Humidity

First Run:
235.01
232.89

6 Pulls on the dyno and 2 Hours worth of tuning and cooling periods later....

244.08
234.18



Yippie!! I wonder what she will be at during dyno in the winter!!

Sorry no pics or vids I forgot my camera at home

congrats man, those are some respectable gains. how much was it for all the dyno and tuning time?

from what i understand you have to buy an air fuel metering upgrade and then have it dyno tuned? can someone point me in right direction, im looking to do the same upgrade, but im kind of going at it blind

Thanks brotha!

I paid $350 flat no tax cause I paid cash.

The shop did as many pulls on the dyno as it took and I think I was at 6-7 when done.

What bolt ons do you have now?

Did you get the runfiles, and if so, what correction factor was used?

No graphs?

I have the graph but I need to scan it. Remember last time I tried to scan? Look like poop!

This is what it says

CF: STD Smoothing: 5

Did I answer it? lol I still dont understand this whole correction stuff

Sure did. Try and call the shop and ask if they can email you the actual files.

SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers), USA. Power is corrected to reference conditions of 29.23 InHg (99 kPa) of dry air and 77 F (25°C). This SAE standard requires a correction for friction torque. Friction torque can be determined by measurements on special motoring dynamometers (which is only practical in research environments) or can be estimated. When estimates must be used, the SAE standard uses a default Mechanical Efficiency (ME) value of 85%. This is approximately correct at peak torque but not at other engine operating speeds. Some dynamometer systems use the SAE correction factor for atmospheric conditions but do not take mechanical efficiency into consideration at all (i.e. they assume a ME of 100%).

STD or STP. Another power correction standard determined by the SAE. This standard has been stable for a long time and is widely used in the performance industry. Power is corrected to reference conditions of 29.92 InHg (103.3 kPa) of dry air and 60 F (15.5°C). Because the reference conditions include higher pressure and cooler air than the SAE standard, these corrected power numbers will always be about 4 % higher than the SAE power numbers. Friction torque is handled in the same way as in the SAE standard.

ECE (European Community), Europe. The ECE standard is based on the European Directives. Power is corrected to reference conditions of 99 kPa (29.23 InHg) of dry air and 25°C (77 F). Friction torque is not taken into consideration at all.
DIN (Deutsche Industrie Norm), Germany .

The DIN standard is determined by the German automotive industry. Power is corrected to reference conditions of 101.3 kPa (29.33 InHg) of dry air and 20°C (68 F). With the advent of European legislation and standards, national standards such as the DIN (formerly widely used) are now less significant.

Actual You may see this on some charts. What this means is this is the actual horsepower archived on the day tested and no correction factor has been applied. One can assume better or worse results with varying weather conditions.
