UpRev w/Shawn Church (Church Automotive)

I'm less focused on the peak #s than the area under the curve. I can really feel the change in the torque curve. It's quite a big gain in the mid section.

We all know how dyno #s work, this isn't intended to be a comparison to other dissimilar runs, right?

Anyone else have tuning results from Church Automotive or DynaPack hubs?

It was only obvious to me after Shawn pointed it out, but maybe you guys may already know this, too.

The 370Z won't use full throttle <2500 RPM regardless of what amount of throttle is programmed! Various graphs illustrate this shift and it means we're leaving low-end power on the table.

It doesn't mean much in racing, I suppose. So much of this kind of tune improves everyday driveability, so why not?

That's small potatoes to actually figuring out how to unlock VVEL! Maybe we could see another 10 or 20 peak WHP?!
