We finished up some more of my custom tune yesterday. The base tune that UpRev sent is extremely rich. The injectors were at 100% above 5400 RPM. Basically I was dumping unneded fuel into engine. We smoothed everything out to 13.0 A/F. It took a while so we were unable to mess with the timing but I hope to gain a few more horses once we get some more time to strap her back down to the dyno. Below I have attached the dyno charts.

1) These two graphs (with and without A/Fs) my original dyno with FI exhaust only compared with the tuned car with all my bolt-ons (FI TDI CBX, FI LTH, and Stillen G3). I never got a complete baseline. I know I should have but I just couldn't help myself. I had to start modding asap.





Next chart represents the start of the day yesterday compared to the final numbers. So you can see the UpRev tune picked up about 15 hp and 11 ft/lbs from 4500 rpm up. I think this is the most telling dyno chart to show how beneficial a custom UpRev tune can be. Not to mention my gas mileage is going to be so much better.



I am happy so far. But I think there is definitely more room to go when I get some more time for tuning.

Should be putting the car up on jack stands today for more parts to be installed.
