do you think you'll see better results with JUN cams done?

I'm hoping they can also confirm or refute whether the Nismo ECU's have same or different VVEL target maps as compared to non-Nismo. I've been clinging to the hypothesis that they are different for ages now with no clear answers...


Dynotronics? Any insight here??

I think if you get some improvements with tuning it on boost, that would really motivate some peeps.

Has anyone read this thread? And not just the last few pages? Vvel has been played with back in Decemberof last year. Not sure why anyone is thinking this is new stuff. Video out n everything with a 370 sounding like a muscle car. So it's safe to say that since December of LAST YEAR, nothing has changed from Uprev or ecutek.

Here you go.

gee it all you want to do is make your car sound like an old truck, that's easy.

BTW, that's not VVEL but more VVT with WAY too much overlap down low.

As I said, we have not seen any real huge gains on the dyno, yet.

BTW, yes you can change the vvel with uprev, problem is, you have no idea what it is you are really changing, and not all of the tables are even defined with that sw. I try not to do stuff by wild assed guessing. If we can't repeat it, and back it up on the dyno, it does not go into one of our files. I really don't like to blow stuff up, it hurts my feelings!
