Cause otherwise this one shows me making massive gains!!!
Of course I know that. But you did not provide a same day same dyno before and after. You are the one guessing here I was just explaining what you were elluding to

I’ve seen manuals 430 rwhp happy dynos

Your mods are worth roughly 80 rwhp people have tested it before. Enjoy !

And I gained 80 with the initial tune.
But 90 after the second...

I couldn’t make out your original comparison and can’t see the new one on my phone. To be truly accurate has to be same day, don’t unstrap the car and same engine temps same tire pressure etc to be really anal lol. Even back to back pulls can change by 5-10 hp sometimes

Also Did you know you can buy E85 kit included harness for $200 and you can resell them for $150 later?
I didn't cut and weild nor did I buy a catch can off eBay.

I was mixed up between this thread and your other didn’t realize you had a baseline etc. it initially sounded like you were guessing at your gains just looking at the other thread. Yeah people have found a bit more hp in tuning with messing with injector timing now so 90 over 80 from old tune is probably fairly accurate

What obviously matters to me is the acceleration, after all that is the whole point.
The feel is amazing
I was just trying to be helpful :_(

Looks like we are pretty similar mod wise.
You just have a better IM, headers, and drive shaft.

ill be dynoing my car with my mods on the 23rd. Your tuner is saying with E85 headers no cats and ported im/tb and cai you're making 478hp? there are alot of happy dynos out there. dynos just a tool. im thinking with my mods on a dyno that is not inflated for sales ill be making around 440rwhp. we basically have the same mods just I have arh cats so -2hp.

Read the thread, everything has been addressed.

i did where was it addressed? you dont get 478hp from these mods. these cars put down 390hp stock all these 400+ is bullshit inflated numbers. your headers are good for 20-25hp E85 good for about the same 20-25hp ported im/tb good for 10 cai 5 if you get anything. thats all with a tune. so closer to 450hp. they shouldn't even rate dynos by hp. you can move the rating up and down at will. The shops that show the best numbers get the most business. So lots of shops move the numbers up to stay competitive. Im not bashing you or your tuner. take the car to the track. its the only way to prove me wrong. Ill post my sheet here being that we have basically the same mods. I might be on E90 though but i also have cats.
