Default Aps Tt & Kinetix Ssv

Got my TT kit installed last week. Tuning with original plenum yielded 413 bhp and 423 lb/ft of torque @ 8psi

Great.


Then fitted SSV and retuned.

Power 392 bhp and 410 lb/ft of torque @ 8.5psi



I'll get the dyno charts on tomorrow, once i get my scanner working.

Not happy at all. That was with tuning, and even higher boost pressure to try and get it back up. Went APS, and got much better results.
Even with the ambient air temperature being 12 degC higher the next day with the APS plenum tune, it put out 419bhp and 430 lb/ft of torque. Shame we couldnt have done the final dyno (with APS) plenum on the same day as the kinetix. Would have been even higher the difference.

Get the Crawford or APS Plenum and you won't have any lost but only gained horses

Yeah, got the APS plenum installed in the end. Still very unhappy about paying all that money for a mod that lost me power.

How much power did you gain once you got the APS Plenum?

While some customers have had problems with tuning the SSV, ALL customers who have tuned to previous A/F curves so far have shown very good gains.

This has been consistent with the APS, greddy, and the vortech so far

Generally on the twin turbo setups we have seen 20-25hp gains with no loss at any point in the curve.

These are customers cars tuned from several different shops.

People generally dont take the time to scan and post dynos when they are satisfied which makes it difficult for us to get good info out to the general public.

Baptist, please try to scan those graphs including A/F curves and lets see if we cant figure it out. It is only fair to post the dynos with A/F for before and after with stock/SSV
