On the contrary, we actually picked up torque and power throughout! At the highest gap for a torque increase it was at 4300 RPM's. We had an increase of 18 FT LBS. A far as power, the highest gap increase was at 4300 as well as 5900 RPM's. That increase was around 15-16 RWH. This is just a tid bit, I promise I will post the dynos soon. As far as the tune, what we were mainly able to do is clean the A/F up which made the car safe. The timing we demanded was kicked back by the ECU and I feel higher octane fuel than our California 91 garbage will help the car perform better!

These numbers are all stock cats vs the LTH's right? what do you expect for gains for people that have test pipes..

So, I guess that confirms that timing advance via "tune" still isn't possible - just fuel maps?

Given VVEL, and how it works, it makes sense that they'd not want anyone tweaking timing, you get a valve too far out there where it shouldn't be, and it'll get bent....

I think he meant that the timing adjustments they wanted would have stayed if the fuel wasn't trash. If that's true, thats good news for people with access to 93 octane.

Outstanding. Thx for the reassurance, Tony.

Higher octane would certainly help, but Tony's experience is consistent with mine. The timing adjustments we made went nowhere, and I put Shell 93 in my car.

Semtex, thanks for the clarification.

No, these numbers are over our high flow cats and CBE!

Who is supposed to be posting this dyno chart ? If it's Kolya he is getting a -rep for taking so long. If it's Tony he is getting a neutral rep but it's only cause he's busy as FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

That's pretty good since it's put up against the HFC..I should have got in on that group buy pricing. Poo.

PS: THE ONLY problem I would have with this setup is still the yearly state inspection I have to go through (next is due 04/11) and I would have to take the LTH off (pay to have someone take them off) and put the stock setup back on. Kinda annoying for me to deal with.

You can always stop by and drool over my set.

Thanks bro! I will post this dyno chart and the A/F chart in the front of this thread as well. This is just for now to feed you all something...

Thanks, Tony
