What kind of dyno to they run down there? I'm about 5-6 hrs away from Austin...
Do they tune UTEC there?

I think it's a Dynajet. They tune the factory ECU.

SS box came out when I put in the pump and 550s.

Nice numbers! I'll have my Vortech installed soon, but I'm going with UTEC since I have no cruise control. What were your numbers before the Vortech?

Hi Ken, I never dynoed stock. I think stock averages around 240 whp. Out of the box Vortech with no tune got me 330 whp, 339 w/o air filter.

You only need cruise buttons for map switching. My other map is valet and I'm to poor to go somewhere that they have valets.

Excellent!
Any supporting mods? Same OEM MAF? How is torque curve, AFR? Please post dyno sheet. Thanks

Don't have a dyno sheet, couldn't post it if I did. Don't have a scanner, digital camera, cam phone not working right now. AFR is 11.0 from 3K rpm to 7100.

Doesn't matter, they only do FI flashes on the dyno. Too many variances between kits even the same brand. All their mailorder flashes are NA.

Why distrust in ECU? This ECU does well on NA. Are piggybacks safer?
It’s just that tuning with stock ECU is new.
Hopefully Jared will post dyno sheet for you. Thanks

I'll be putting it on another dyno in early morning when it's not so hot. Maybe I'll get 400. That's at the Dodge dealer. They'll give me a dyno sheet. That's where I dynoed after the initial install.

The danger is if the MAF voltage maxes out. Piggyback's offset the MAF voltage when tuning fuel.
