Agreed. Possibly one of the most complete kits on the market and for a outstanding price point...

The reflash should not take more than an hour correct? Im planning on dropping my car off to the shop in the early morning and take the ECU to Turbonetics for reflash while they install the turbo. BTW, how long is the installation for the turbo? appox.

Usually install takes 8-10 hours... Reflash takes about 45 minutes to an hour.

8-10 hours only with someone who has installed it before? What about a shop, lets say like Intense Motorsports where their speciality is Turbo's and stuff, but they have never installed a Turbonetics kit. How long would it approx take em?

Same time frame....it took a shop I am familiar with but that had never installed a Tnetics kit about 11 hours to install it with gauges...

I should by next week. All of the newer dynos I have seen recently have been SAE corrected.

Even dyno runs done at Sea-level have to be SAE corrected to a standardized temperature and pressure don't they?

Ahh. Well wouldn't the higher the correction typically mean a larger margin of error? From what I've seen of high altitude tests is dynojet typically has a tendency to over correct.

I'm no expert, but I would imagine you're correct. The more a number has to be corrected based on mathematical formula, the less accurately that number will reflect the real world results, especially given that the math can't possibly apply accurately to every car.

Good to hear. Do you know what effect (if any) that humidity will have on dyno results? I was thinking about this the other day. It's starting to get hot and humid down here at this time of the year and I'm not sure what numbers to expect.

our flash does address the wot issue. i read in an earlier post of yours about going to Techno direct... i am sure they would flash for you but i am also pretty sure they will charge you...we include the cost of the flash as well as thr freight in your purchase price of the kit.

Oh ok.
Thanks for the fast reply. Going to Techno wont be the issue anymore then, cuz I just ordered your kit yesterday....

I'll just take my ECU to you guys for the reflash when the kit gets here.
