Other than Mike, has anyone sprung for the EC C55 tune and if so, how did it work out for you?? Any dyno results (other than Mike's??) Butt dyno opinions can be included!!

I have a tune by Eurocharged. Not dyno tuned so no before and after dyno sheets to have a good comparison. I had a baseline done 2 years ago before I was ever modded and I am planning on going back to the dyno again soon but even then it would not be apples to apples as I added true duals w/ xpipe and no secondaries since as well. Plus the whole diff days, diff conditions thing with dynos is a crapshoot.

As for the butt dyno, I think it definitely picked up some power for sure but nothing as substantial compared to a boosted car like a c32 getting tuned.

Was it worth my money? Sure, I think so.

I placed an order for it and i'm pretty sure it's going to be good. I will do it with the cable it's easier for me. 25 more ft of torque is going to show for sure!

I got mine, does feel a little bit more powerful but I like that the trans shifts faster. It even downshifts better since it doesn't slip the clutches as much going down with the manual shift. Goes great with my new paddles.

A 14.5 @ 102 isn’t sufficient validation?
His Dito Motors’ dynamometer tests showed a “9 lb-ft and 20 horsepower” difference.

No sense pussyfooting around since it’s easy enough to catch up with the Eurocharged guys.
IIRC, you coined the phrase “Jerry Tune” during the LET days. :y

Splinter with all due respect, the track time I ran does not validate anything. If I'm not noticing the exaggeration please let me know.
I can find out my a/f ratio soon, one of my employees can do it.

Red top 34/78. I have heard you can flip them upside down and still work. It weighs a good 15 pounds less than the stock. The stock weighed in at 54 fat pounds...

Several suggested in his original tuning thread that he obtain and post pertinent variables.
Whether michael kuzni has done so I’ll leave for him to address.

i couldn't tell you. like i said in my thread, they ran the flash the first time with dyno, and i had 14 more rwhp and i think 7 more torque? then they did it the second time and i got 7rwhp and 20 more torque. so then jerry wrote a file that put them both together and then the gentlemen's computer that was flashing it at the location had his laptop battery die, so i went back to his shop down the street and got on it on the way there, then he did the final flash at his shop but no dyno and after that i felt even more power. so we came to the conclusion that i got 20 more rwhp.
