ok so i went and dynoed and tuned my car last night at a shop here in miami called lujan motorsports. they are pretty good and have a good rep also the owner willie is a cool and professional guy. but anyways i dynoed at 268 whp and 227 torque. that was the final run. my question is since i am using a 55mm pulley which is the 12psi pulley for those of you who dont know the exact size. how come i didnt go for more. i know i seen icenine do 311 whp with cams and meth included. but i didnt get tuned with my meth. cAuse they couldnt with my emanage blue. is that true? and what all involves in tuning the meth? advance timing? retard timing?
my set up is
12psi pulley
hks cold air
megan header and s pipe
zpi racing exhuast
aem mth kit

 

The difference could largly be due to ambient temperature, dyno settings / type, and IceNine's cams.

 

^^the cams are a pretty big part of that. if i remember right, i think you need to advance timing with meth and the blue can't do that. pretty decent numbers though. if you had something that would be able to tune the meth, you'd probably be able to squeeze more power out.

 

will the greddy ultimate be able to do it? or do i have to get the aem fic? and another question i have the pnp harness for the blue will the ultimate work with the that harnes?

 

I dont know why they cant tune the blue to work with the meth, i know it should, you can adjust timing to with blue

 

the ultimate can do it. i dont think the blue can adjust timing..i think the blue and fic are very similar in features. and i dont think the pnp harness for the blue is compatible with the ultimate. i'm 90% sure about that but ask dezod if you want a definite answer.

 

^^ the blue can adjust timing

 

ignition timing can be tuned with the blue

 

regardless nice numbers. Just go with the ultimate its better anyways than the blue and its a give or take vs. the AEM f/ic. But get those new BC cams and get retuned on the ultimate and i see bigger numbers in your future.

 

yeah i stand corrected. checked it out myself. ultimate still better though

 

yup ultimate is better but just make sure you make use of its capability, someone who slaps in a basic turbo kit and calls it a day will do well with the blue tuned right

 

actually you dyno'd a lot less than icenine.
dyno's are not all created equal.

yours was on a dynojet. his was on a dyno dynamics. his numbers on a dynojet would have been much higher, by as much as 20%.

 

ok so what guys are saying is that i can tune with the blue? so what do they need to know to actuallytune it better? ignition timing or retard timing or advance timing? so i can let them know cause i really wanna get it done for now. cuse iwanna eventually get the cams and that WR intake manifold that is in the works now.

 

Leave the timing adjustments to your tuner. Every car is different.

If you tune it now, then you'll have to re-tune it when you get the intake manifold.

 

my dyno was on the same as icenine's - a lot depends on your tuner also

 

leave the ignition part to the tuner, its a lil tricky unlike the fuel where you have a wideband to monitor.. ignition tuning usually is tuned going up (advancing) and see where you get most power but on the safe side not to create pre ignition, it should be done on the dyno

 

has anyone tuned a meth kit with the blue?

 

what do you mean you stand corrected?
has anyone tuned there car with meth? if so with what management (piggyback)?

 

i stand corrected that the blue has the capabilities to tune ignition timing. jwaggz has tuned with meth, i think he used the ultimate. i know someone else tuned with meth, also on the ultimate.

 

guess i will be searching on the classifieds sections for anyone with an ultimate and harness! and when i get it i will just sell my blue and harness and support tool with cable then. to try to make some money back
