That is a solid gain from a tune, your motor will be much happier now, why would your tuner not share the data? I am guessing probably 2 degs added

Love the comment on the rear end breaking at will, now that is fun

It's not necessarily about the numbers themselves, but about the gains seen from stock to tuned. That's the important stuff!
You cannot duplicate the exact same variables from one moment to the next, even on the same dyno. |

It wasn't an answer to your question. I too would like to know why this VVEL thing needs to be 'cracked'. If I understand this VVEL stuff, it gives fuel economy while cruising and power when you step on it. Seems simple - intake valves open sooner i.e. longer duration with a higher lift and the timing is advanced accordingly for power when you get on the throttle . In cruise, for fuel economy, the timing is retarded, valve lift is reduced and begins later. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Your tuner, as you stated, adjusted timing and fuel delivery to produce good gains in HP. Did he mention anything about cracking the VVEL 'secret'?

bolt on mods are easy to do canned maps for as they all basically work the same, I wouldnt worry much about basic mods and tuning.

If you look at his mods and his dyno and compare it to others, it seems likely he got 20-30hp from the tune alone. Dyno time with a competent tuner is key. |
