How so ? Dime advertised +34HP and 40Lb. Ft. TQ at the wheels on a P31 Performance Package C63.


Why is it not accurate to add those numbers to your base to come up with a total with their tune ?

you must be new to this thing called the internet. advertised power figures are to give you a rough estimate on how the part or modification works on their test vehicle. the only way to "roughly" calculate their figure would be to figure out the percentage increase of power and apply that to your power output.

different dyno's perform differently and output different figures. a mustang dyno or superflow dyno will rate our engines in the high 200hp range, maybe low 300 hp range at the wheels. same with a land and air dyno. a dynojet will rate any figures higher and dynapacks vary greatly.

you can't just go on adding numbers here and there coming up with magical values. just because they for instance used a dynojet, and you used the same model dynojet somewhere else doesn't mean those dynojets will output the same figures.

That's really excellent. I hope they *** up his car.

Edit: I just read the responses over at the other place. So awesome, they totally ruined his car. The universe has a funny sense of humor.

It's a great read about basically being a giant ponzi scheme and one of the guys being a convicted felon, sure give them your car - good luck!

What a mess! Glad the video was posted exposing the whole thing. Makes you think who you can really trust nowadays when it comes to performance shops. Every one of them has a past.

I don't get wtf the op wants a tune from someone that has zero feedback and no credibility.

I got headers on my car and emailed my tuner and the new file is coming today.why would you want to deal with them dime when you have 3 solid tuners here that can get you remote tuned.

After reading how many cars faced issues with them. I wont send them my ecu thats for sure. I will most probably go with eurocharged. Best choice I guess.

Sounds like a smart decision, OEtuning or Eurocharged seemed to be what most people go for!

dime racing honestly looks like some rich dude wanting to open a shop and race team dumping money left and right.

their race team has only been around since 2017 per their website. doesn't mean they don't know what they're doing, just saying...where are your roots. i mean look at World Motorsports...that dude's parents are loaded. their Turbo SLS AMG never got sorted out, now they don't even offer the turbo kit for the SLS.

You don't have to guess - they hide their names for a reason and the article of BB explains pretty well they are not some rich dude, they are a bunch of con men with a history of taking money from people.

I've dealt with Dime a handful of times lately. I can tell you they've gotten 2 tunes for m157's and a tcu tune done just fine. I've also ordered alot of engine hardware and recieved it in a timely manner. This is something I cant say for some of the other reputable shops, they send the wrong parts and take weeks to respond back. I'm about to have Dime clone a damaged ecu/tuned ecu for me from a used one as well. I'll report back how that goes too.

Did anyone stop to think about the weistec / dime product similarities? Steve the partner that left weistec is the tuner. Hence why all the tuning products are nearly identical because he wrote those tunes.

Lol at the eurocharged dyno comparison...it's specifically on the v7 tune. Has anyone stopped to think why there are 7 revisions to this tune? I mean do it right or do it twice.... or ..... uhmmmm 7 times? food for thought.

With all that being said a 4 day install to twin turbo any car is rather ambitious and clearly didnt pan out well, but there's always two side to a story and I'd prefer to think the facts and information aren't being portrayed accurately by a whiney trust fund cry baby, who's used to getting things handed to him when he wants them at all times. Those are the worst videos i've ever seen. vehicle virgins is an understatement. More like dumbass trying to showoff and get attention. He's seriously a poster child mustang owner.

Do it once and so it right? Lmao. So we shouldn't evolve the product and use the same technology from 6 years ago? The tuning industry changes frequently. NO tuner had as much access to the file when the car came out that we do now, and now that we have cracked this like vvt the differences are night and day. If you ask Steve he will tell you the same thing. Yes we have 7 versions of our product. But tell me another tuner that is still pushing the platform like we are with flexful kits and vvt tuning?

Thank you for the work you are doing I appreciate the fact that there are companies out there willing to continue to support this platform and puah the performance edge.

Check out our tune. I'm not too familiar with the IPE headers so I'm not sure of the actual numbers will be, but you'll obviously have better gains than what we have stated.

I wanted to hear feedback before I ship my ecu to dime racing.

I don't even have an M156 powered car right now but I've done all the research, read all the reviews, heard all the stories, and even reached out to people with various tunes. Without a doubt, Eurocharged is the way to go. Hell, I posted few questions on this site about cars, what options to get etc, and they reached out to me via pm! Nope, I'm sold. EC will get my money from Day 1 and every day thereafter.
