TS reflash & dyno day!!
Well. I finally coughed up the cash and did it!! Eventhough, I was shooting for 250 HP, I am still ok with the results (241HP, 227whp). Here are the things that caught my eye:
1. Awesome torque increase! A lot more than I was expecting!!
2. AFR does not richen up until 4K. Not sure why. Tadashi blamed my 76MM MAF. I guess I agree with him to a certain extent, however the 13.5 baseline TS uses should have helped that. He also said I may have an exhaust leak
3. No data after 6600. With the extended rev limiter increased to 7100, there should have been some data. When I asked Tadashi, he stated he did not want to "push it" because it was decreasing in power anyway. It would have been good to know it regardless and I will at my next dyno after I fine tune AFR.
4. Spikes in the curve. Tadashi blamed that on the VIAS delete. I wish he would have done some runs in 2nd and 3rd gears (evidently, he uses 4th gear during the reflash).
5. I wish he would have used a Dyno Jet to begin with (see comparison sheet).
Nevertheless, worth the drive from Vegas. I am looking forward to fine tuning the AFR and re-dynoing.

How else are you compensating for the added ID of the MAF? SAFC or similar, or is it just the TS flash?

Headers
Berk-style SRI w/ AEM dry-flow filter
Pulley
Frankencar b-pipe
High-flow cat
Cattman muffler
base-timing advance
SSIM
VIAS delete
spacers
grounding kit
SAFCII (coming soon)
I think those are all the ones that matter here!!

Aww IIRC he had a
custom made intake from his old civic
HS headers
cattman 3"
SSIM
TS reflash (no extended rev IIRC)
Test pipe
pulley and maybe one other thing, if not thats it, i might have spacers as well, and he's getting some extreme numbers.. granted that he should earn 10-15whp more than u for his headers and cattman 3"... but there's also J-dub which is on youtube with a white 6spd that has cattman I/H/E (2.5") test pipe and maybe one or two other mods that i dont know of but he's dynoing 250whp

those numbers are off tho...u need to get to a dyno jet ASAP!!!!!!!

Not yet. I am still working out a few kinks.
I changed headers and went back to the stock MAF. Now, I am running super rich due to the TS flash.
I tried tuning with SAFCII, but didn't like the particular unit. Kinda crappy if you ask me!!!
Gonna wait it out for SurraTT's Utec harness. In the meantime, I will probably send my ECU back down to TS for another reflash. He only charges like a buck fifty to redo it.

I meant quieter. I went the OBX route and not back to stock.
Now my AFR, due to TS reflash, is down to the high 10s at WOT. I guess I should have kept the factory MAF on it before the flash. I am curious what I will dyno running so rich
