He made almost 318 with ecutek.

Ok, I'm an idiot. I wasn't looking at the bar graph, just at the red and blue numbers listed on the graph: 287.393 (red), 258.652 (blue), etc. Now that I realize my mistake, 318 makes perfect sense.

Thanks for pointing this out.

These results are better then I could have hoped for. This seems pretty high, but the car feels pretty damn fast.

The tune pretty much cleaned up all of the throttle lag, the idle is much smoother and it feels smoother all the way through the powerband. It feels much more responsive and it is seriously noticable in the higher Rpms. I didn't get to play with it much today. Rush hour traffic prevented that from happening. I will definitely play with it more this weekend.

Wow, those are great numbers. That's what most guy's are hoping to see and end up seeing about 20hp less. Nice job!

I've read a lot about dyno dynamics being a real heart breaker because they are usually 1-2% lower then a Dynojet. It sure didn't break my heart!

Have you had a chance to do much testing with the butt dyno, how's it feel?
