Sometimes it's not enuff to just go by specs and modifications that you have done to your car. Folks seem to be having issues with the cars running lean after certain mods. It is always better to see on a dyno what your car is doing with your present mods and SW. At least you'll know with confidence your tune is safe and will give you reliable hp.As far as sending your car to Active ,you could have done like Lloyd and have your car shipped down via Amtrak! I believe he quoted me 400.00 which included him going down with the car to I believe to Orl. Then he drove the car from there to Miami. There are also shipping companies that would have sent the car straight to Active for you,guys do it on Bimmerforums all the time. Read here:

Does your dyno contain your AFR(air fuel ratio),rpm's and Tq because that would be more interesting to see than just your HP #'s Jody? There is a very good reason why Ahmad asked you did you dyno tune your car. Sometimes it's not enuff to just go by specs and modifications that you have done to your car.

BEST way to tune ECU is while driving...Thats what I do after each mods...You wont beleive it but after each mod the AFRs changes and we put them back to 12.2...

Yup that is one of the reason I waited unitl the end to do the tune, No more MODS, lol!, for now at least....Air fuel ratios go dropping down all the way to 11.5 through 6400 RPM, gradually drops as the RPM increases...

could go a tad leaner like Eruss 12.2 but you r pretty much good. You should add a wide band O2 and AFR guage to your car Jody so you can always keep an eye on it.

So Evotech is my only answer for now? i wonder how it is compared to my Kleemann ECU in terms of power gains...but, Cant Kleemann do the same thing for me if i send it back to them and ask for specific spec that i would like it to be done>?

June, there are many options but these guys gave me a pretty good tune, and not only that I feel the car will brake low 11's on a nice and cold day, who knows. Give me a call, we could talk. I hate PM's, lol!! you got my number.

Each car is diff...that is why we do on road tuning...to see how the car reacts to diff AFRs...this why you can see if its lean or not...

This is what I got http://www.innovatemotorsports.com/x...8&cat=0&page=1
Looks pretty cool, especially if you get a matching Defi boost gauge and make a custom piece to hold both gauges where the sunglass holder goes
