3) I don't need to ask anything, I know the bs answers already. Not to mention that if the guy is clueless enough to post a 90RWHP gain with those mods, then chances are he doesn't know his *** from his head about tuning.

4) You are asking me if I know the difference between a shelf tune and a tune? give me a break. I had over 40 hours of dyno tune time logged on my 04 STI alone. Also you call this a "re-TUNED reflash" do you even know what that means? I've had dinner with Trey Cobb, nice guy.

5) I don't give two flying bleeps who that guy is or how respected he is.

6) A video of the run lol, what is that going to do? I can have my tuner adjust the dyno and then video tape a run on it and make 400RWHP on my untuned intakes; what does that prove? I will believe it when I see an independent dyno with a stock VQ37 doing a pull and setting a base line and then he can do a pull right after. I want to see that 90WHP gain. I can't see the graph, what's the AFR on it? Race fuel? not that it matters..

7) Don't bother, we don't need that kind of nonsense here.


Listen, you are telling me this guy threw on an intake, an exhaust and a "re-TUNED reflash" and gained..lets see...a 35% gain of power over stock? Don't you at all think there is something wrong with that? Like at all??? You are in for a rough brush with reality...
+200. Agreed with everything you said. King David..it doesnt matter how many times u post that link. Thats only one dyno of a 370 making 350whp. Now like i said before, if i see more independent dyno runs then ill be a believer. Till then im taking that graph with a grain of salt. If u really knew anything about tuning, u would know there is no way u can squeeze 90whp from any VQ with just and intake/full exhaust/and a tune regardless of how good the tune is. Thats why i said in my previous post i would expect around 300-330whp from a dynojet with a setup like that depending on variables.

Also RCZ i do agree with u that on a car like this ignition mods are useless but a underdrive crank pulley actually helps. I picked up about 7whp from my 350 with it so it does add up.
