This past week I was able to get a remote tune from Ken Bjonnes. Having Ken tune my car was one of the best tuning experiences that I have had in the past 12 years. In 2 days, I did 7 logs and Ken revised my tune 3 times. I even got one of the revisions at 11:30pm lol. Ken is amazing! So, day I had a chance to dyno my car and while I was at it, test the new tune vs old tune. I did test out meth/water injection without tuning for it. So, meth was a fun experiment and I didn't see anyone else trying it but....without a tune it made about 18rwhp less and 20rwtq less. I won't be using meth/water injection at the track lol.

Total of 7 dyno pulls. Temp in the dyno bay was 91 - 93 degrees; not really ideal lol. The dyno was a dyno jet. All pulls were made in 4th gear. I tried to do a 5th gear pull but it the speed limiter.

Results:

Previous Tune: I have decided that I am not going to release this information out of respect for my previous tuner.


Ken's Tune: I did 3 pulls with Ken's tune. On my logs my car was hitting 12psi.

1: 705rwhp/524rwtq
2: 706rwhp/514rwtq
3: 714rwhp/512rwtq

All of the pulls with Ken's tune had a A/F around 11.6:1 which is perfect. The timing is spot on too. My logs look phenomenal! I'm going to keep meth/water on my car for just added safety during the summer. Tampa is ridiculously hot. I wish that I could have gotten a video but I was alone in the dyno bay. It was a pretty cool experience with the shop turning me loose on the dyno. This is actually the first time that I have been able to drive my car on the dyno.

I believe that they have to raise it to the point that you will never hit. I'm not really worried about it. I will never hit 182mph on the track. This was mainly to compare the 2 tunes and test meth. I'll get track times soon but my drag radials got raped logging for Ken lol.

Very nice! I'm hoping to get mine dynoed after I'm done tuning with Ken as well. Hoping to get into the 700s too.

Yeah bro, you will be in the 700s. I'll make it to the track next month. I'm hoping for 135mph trap.

I'm jealous I still wish I would have went whipple in the very begining that whine is intoxicating. Whipple makes good stuff! At least if I get tired of the tvs I can fall back on my whipple Lightnung lol

Yeah bro, that's what it is all about. The thing that most people don't understand is that all dynoes are different. Someone could make 700 on one dyno and them only make 650 on another. Trap speed is the real test of power lol. But man, it is getting hot here. I hate Tampa lol. However, my car was consistant on all of the runs with Ken's tune. I was impressed. The only runs that were lower were the previous tune and when I had meth/water turned on.

I would have liked to do 5th gear pulls but 3.31s with a 28.4" tire is too much. I was around 7000 rpms when I hit 182mph.
