i'm really looking for feedback on, given what I mention above, should i go uprev or cobb, custom tune or otherwise, and any other sage advice you guys would offer up... and if custom tune, does it matter who I take it to ? is it worth a pilgrimage to a particular shop outside of AZ ?

Yes it does matter who you take it to. Take the vehicle to a shop that is very thorough and will tune it the way you want it for the setup. I'm Uprev FTW.

Well it's not really on my radar until next year at earliest, but good to know. Shawn's taken care of me so far, and I'm happy with their shop, so I'll get back to them when I'm ready.

Thanks for the info!

FYI to Uprev. I have the Stillen Gen 3 intake, headers, HFC and CBE. I added something called Fang Vents invented by Modshack. Directs air directly to the intake filters. No tuning done. Car put on dyno and checked out. No air flow problems. I questioned this and was told I "could run it like I stole it". Just a little something to throw in the mix.

Each car is different so what works well on yours may not work well on another. Also what shop did the dyno work? Have an AFR reading along with the dyno chart?

Uprev or anyone, Im a little confused on your standard tuning option. Coming from a turbo car the tunes were mostly generic to your ECU and what mods you had done and they just upload the tune to the ECU without putting the car on a dyno. So with your standard tuning is my car put on a dyno to tweak for my mods? And if so do I have to pay for the standard tune and the dyno time too? Thanks.

We sell Osiris Standard mostly for people that aren't close to a Pro Tuner. The idea of a Base Tune doesn't really sit well with us, as each car is different. We offer our eTunes for those customers so that they aren't just left with a base tune, it can be adjusted to be safe on their vehicle.

We generally have customers work with a Pro Tuner if they are in range of one. A Dyno Tune is always preferable obviously. You can not do a generic base tune for a forced induction vehicle, unless of course you're the person making that FI system and have done the needed testing. So we don't directly offer Osiris Standard for forced induction though our OEMs like GT Motorsport do offer it with their turbo and supercharger systems.

We can work with the base tune and our eTunes to provide a decent upgraded tune, and the more accurate data we get back the better the eTune will be. So doing data logging with a dyno helps.

You can always purchase Osiris Standard and then work with a Pro Tuner to do a full dyno tune, our set up is very flexible. One of the nice things if you are within range of a Pro Tuner then you only need purchase Osiris Flash Service from the Pro Tuner and spend your extra money on the Dyno Tune. If you'd like you can purchase Cipher later from the Pro Tuner if you'd like to do data logging.

OK so with the standard I get the areas listed on your site tuned. Do I need to download my ECU with mods to you so that you can retune and send back to me? Sorry for the noob questions but still need clarification.

Do you have an approx release date ?

We tuned a 370Z with it yesterday. I will be posting numbers later. Tuning is a learning curve on the 370Z but we're happy.

Good to hear.
When I was in Austin they said they are ready, only thing is they do not have all the ECUs so if your car has one they have not seen it might be a few days while they do there thing, then you can get your tune.

Though by the sounds of it they are getting them in quickly though.

Daishi · 10-27-2009, 12:05 PM

B1nks · 10-28-2009, 03:37 AM

my Z will hopefully be with UpRev Thurs. morning with it's G3 intakes and F.I. exhaust ready for the tune. Kinda makes me wish I had hung onto the HFC just for the little bit extra hehe.

Sweet! I'm interested in your results seeing as I have just Intake and Exhaust as well.

Zsteve · 10-28-2009, 07:53 AM

Please do a before dyno with all mods and then an after dyno with the tune so we can see what the tune does for the mods. Thanks.
