Flash Tuning.
 

Question,

Anyone know of any flash tuning going down with our cars?? or no love because of N/A.

I come from a WRX/EVO background and theres always love.


Or to early? dunno about piggy back.

Nah nothing yet. There is the Access Port in the states which seems good. You select the tune depending on the mods you have. But as far as I know, it won't work on cars outside of the States (different ROM numbers).

I guess we have to wait a bit till they start releasing tunes for other regions....

You can flash tune NA cars.

I got my FPV GT modified and as part of the modifications, I got a CAPA Flash tuner. Its got 3 settings, high performance, poor fuel and restriction of revs to 1500rpms.

End result was that power moved from 290kws at the motor to 347kws.

Yeah I know, I used to work for FPV direct. Stupid 5.4's used to drink oil like a fish.

Hopefully like ECUTEK does something. I think haltech is doing a complete ecu change over.

Yeah Haltech were looking for test cars a while back. Just don't expect too much from a tune in these cars.... unlike the V8's you'll only see slight gains. You're better getting the g3's, cats and exhaust... then tune later when something comes out for a few more kw

I just want my 225kw to 230kw @ the wheels or 300kw @ the fly.

Intake, exhaust , cats, pulley seems to just get you over the 200kw @ the wheels mark.

haha well 225 is obtainable with intakes cats and exhaust.... I've got HFC's and CBE and I'm on about 215kw atw... with intakes it'll be about 225 apparently. I think Bezzita is 227 he has the pulley as well

Question for you guys, if you download your ROM from your ECU could Cobb or Uprev crack and then ship back an unlocked ROM for you to tune yourself?
Not sure how it all works, but might be something to contact both companies to see if they can help unlock your cars.

What exhaust and cats you guys running.

I'm looking at Berk or F.I with HFC's to match.
Injen intake
Light weight pulley

The only post I could find was when Bezzita got 200kw even with G3 intake, cat back and pulley

Nah dyno would have been reading low for Bezzita. I think the last one he did was 227 or something like that.

I got 212Kw atw when my engine was still tight at 2500-3000km on the clock. With Berk HFC's and the Stillen CBE. I imagine it to be more now. Definately feels like more...

hmmm thats the set up I was thinking too!!!

Now I wanna here it!

I'm loving theses numbers. I had to bust my balls to get 200kw @ the wheels for a wrx.

haha yeah my mate did the same as me plus a tune to his 06 sti and got 202 atw so I was happy lol

if you want big power supercharging is the way to go. I looked it at for my FPV and decided against it. cost $17k and they will cap the power at 450Kw.

I ain't going to bother modifying the Z. I will just buy a new car. The Z is our weekend car anyway

Well you can do the stillen s/c for $5899 USD + install. Good for 345rwKw I think..... Can't go wrong hahaha....

I want to super charge, got close to supercharging the 350 but opted out when i had to buy a house...only reason why I wouldnt now is due to warranty...too paranoid seeing as how many things went wrong with the 350.
