He did stock, v6 and v7 as long as the Pressure and correction factor on all 3 runs is the same, then any variation would be consistent and the number really doesn't matter just the difference on the same day same settings same dyno. So seems like a decent improvement over v6 and stock!

SAE versus STD Dyno Correction Factors
Temperature 93.4
Bar Pressure 24.88
Humidity 24
SAE correction factor = 1.227564169
STD correction factor = 1.250551267
Notice that the correction factors are 1.23 for SAE and 1.25 for STD?
(Yes, I see that the dyno itself calculated STD as 1.26 factor - close enough giving rounding errors)
Any dyno engineer will tell you that correction factors this high are untrustworthy (anything beyond 1.04 to 1.05 is suspect, as the formulas cannot handle corrections that large accurately).
So, yes there is SOME comparative value here, but you really need dyno tests done under more "normal" temperature, pressure, and humidity levels to make them actually trustworthy.
p.s. Notice that the correction mad eon the chart was to STD, not SAE. The STD results at this combination of temperature, pressure, and humidity are 2% more otimistic than the SAE results, and that means the SAE peak power was 2% lower than shown for baseline and for each tune. 2% of 442 rwhp = about 9 rwhp.

I would agree except that when you run these environmental factors in the formulas used to correct to STD and SAE corrected values, you get the following:
SAE versus STD Dyno Correction Factors
Temperature 93.4
Bar Pressure 24.88
Humidity 24
SAE correction factor = 1.227564169

Here is my take on it.. I went to a local shop and did a series of runs same as any joe blow in the country. These runs may not be "perfect" but it is what the average guy can expect to find in any given shop. The exact number may be off by a factor of X but given that these runs were made back to back and we see a general increase across the board we can safely conclude that the latest version made significantly more power than stock. Is it enough for you to spend your money on it ?? IDK that's up to you to decide. I am happy with the results both in the way the car drives and feels.

The power increase on the unicorn/v7 tune is old news. It got proven on the 500whp thread and the forum police,haters and skeptics got silenced and didn't even have the decency to give props. It's comical to see some of these clowns talk so much shyt and even start a new thread clowning the tune whom which will end up buying it or end up feeling stupid wether they admit it or not.
Thanks again for proving the point once more OP i mean "noob" really glad you are happy with the tune and also that it wasn't you just being a noob with a fancy description of the tune and a major "noob" placebo effect going on

The original post in that other thread was pretty chest poundy, from a guy we haven't heard a lot from, and sounded pretty much like every other post that has come before and turned out to be BS from a guy who didnt know his *** from a hand grenade, and so the skepticism/abuse can't be surprising.
This is where I am at:
I had questions. I repeated them loudly. Never really did get an answer to the baseline question, which I think is a pretty reasonable one. If an answer was posted I missed it while I was away but I think Im caught up now.
Infiniti, you and I have had "personality conflict" over this, I think I can say, but I think we have those somewhat sorted, and I am prepared to acknowledge what you have been saying, and say that I believe what you are saying to be true. Congrats on that.
I still believe in Jerry and his product, having owned every version from v2 until 6, and having recommended it to everyone who will listen. Im glad that EC continues to push the envelope on an out of production motor, and excited re the possibilities.
I still think the handling of this was flawed from the start, and caused unnecessary flare-ups. I think everyone who has been in these threads in even a co-starring role has some responsibility for how its gone, and has probably given as good as they've gotten, myself included. And yes, Im kinda pissed at one or two. Still.
But.....
To be clear, Infiniti, if you are waiting for the moment where someone says "Damn, Infiniti, it looks like you were right all along and they have really unlocked some meaningful additional power, Im sorry I doubted you" then consider this that moment.
Sorry it took so long.
Cheers.

No chest pounding, no propaganda or bs.
Nice work.

And they all held hands and sang kumbaya. I love a happy ending.
I was very skeptical at first also, for many reasons. That being said, I have the V6 tune and I"m sure I'll upgrade to teh V7 when I can. I'll use my butt dyno and post the results :-)

For me the difference here, over the other 500hp original thread, is that C63fora2w1 came in here and said "lets try this, and see what it does" then just went out and did it, and posted it, and I thank him for doing that.

I just thought I would add this because the Barometer was brought up earlier.. This is the weather for the track tonight... you'll notice its almost identical as the ambient temp in the pulls..

To be honest u picked like the worst baro to hit the track lol the correction factor will correct on the Dyno but don't be upset if u run 13s and can't trap over 114

Thanks for doing what everyone has been asking for C63fora2w1 (even if a lot people gave you a really hard time about it). Nice comparative data for an increase. Looking forward to your report from the strip.

Thank you for going to the dyno shop for a baseline vs. v6 vs. v7 tune! The numbers look good and you backed up your butt dyno.
I just finished dyno testing at an independent shop here in Albuquerque NM. My car is a P31 with AFE filters and ROW airboxes. I did a base and then loaded the v6 and finally the v7 Beta. The tests were done on a dynojet and ambient temp and correction factor are displayed. I'll let the numbers speak for themselves... These are the v7 beta numbers.
Thanks for going out to the dyno shop to get the v6 vs. v7 numbers! I'm glad that you didn't pull the, "I trust the word of my dyno operator and don't want to back up my butt dyno."
Max power was 443hp and 403 tq an increase of 53hp and 47tq over stock.

When I first straight pipes my car, my tuner was using some German software to tune the car. It worked well and we got nice gains.
While waiting for my headers to arrive, HPtuners released their software for the M156. My tuner (who is a very good friend of mine) said that I should give the HPtuners a go. It was going to cost extra, as I had to but a license for my car for HPtuners, and I already had a license for the other software. But based on his experience using HPtuners on other cars, he was sure he could get more out of it.
After tuning with HPtuners, he mentioned that he got good gains because he was able to manipulate the variable valve timing with HPtuners.

Let's see how close that da calculator is.i ran a bunch of times with similar 60 ft and I put down same exact power as you.
I ran on june 14 at New England dragway it was mid 70s by the time I ran around 8
Ok when I got there at 530 it was 70 but dropped down to 61 by the time I ran and the da was 300 pretty much the best day I'm going to see untill the fall and was the reason I went as the bara was 30.xx and a good day to put some good times up.
I was trapping 118-119 all night!

I make no claims I know its only an estimate and there is definitely going to be a fudge factor when you conciser that I am in a sky high desert with crazy heat and altitude. All I really wanted to see is that there was am improvement in MPH which there was considering the DA was effectively 1500 feet more last night. Skratch77's post is a good comparison ET's will vary depending on 60 ft times and track conditions I don't mind his input at all. What I really need to do is find a full drag slick that will fit. I mentioned to 604_C63 last night that I hate correction factors I want to just be able to run and say there it is I ran xx.x and be done with it. I plan to move back to Florida in the spring so hopefully I'll be back at sea level soon enough.
