Thankfully no problem. There was an unexpected delay with a last minute vacation that delayed the tuning process, but all is well I can assure you of that.
They were able to get in a couple good days of dyno tuning and the results so far were rather promising...

13 psi 503rwhp
15 psi 530 rwhp and 427 ft/lbs
Still have high boost tuning and a road tune before I get it back...Oh yeah and we have to install my meth kit. Waiting for a low fluid level sensor. Should be here Monday.
Here is a preliminary dyno chart just to show how well the proEFI is working. Below is the 15 psi run.




More to follow.
I have not yet driven the car. I can't wait to get it back. I hope they can finish with it this week.

FYI He stated that the A/F was at a steady 11.3 the whole way thru.

So far so good. Thanks for the good wishes Julian.

Congratulations, Randy!

I'm glad to see that everything's OK and the tuning is almost done. Five hundred horsepower is very stout... Should be a blast to drive... Have fun!

Nice, I didnt even notice the ZERO smoothing..its nice to see a Dyno Jet dyno that does NOT look like the Rocky Mountains. .

Yeah. I can't wait to drive it. Many others have described the experience of driving a proefi driven cars like driving a stock car...of course with a lot more power but that driveability is just like that of a stock car. I should get it back this week.
I'll post up my experience when i get some seat time.

It ain't stoppin' here boys and girls. 500 is the lower end of what I want. I have been to hell and back with this car. Pretty much without my car for about 1 year. I am coming back strong. I am adding Meth and will be back with some more numbers. I will have the meth wired and controlled by the proefi as well.

I unfortunately still have to wait a bit longer before the release of the CAN gauge which will allow me to change boost settings on the fly, as well as other features.

I'll ask Jason next time I see him. I know he is aiming to have the software for it 100% complete by the end of the month. So if you get the gauge now, all you would have to do is upload the program, and your good to go.

u should be able tu use an outside controller for meth. In foreingsoda's G he has an outside controller but when it kicks in, the proEfi recognizes this and atuomatically changes to a different map and (in his case) raised boost(after peak TQ) form 6 to 8 psi... u could have something similar...
I agree though, in the end you need the Can gauge

I have a variety of options to control the Meth kit.
I can use TPS, MAP, Boost, MAF, EGT or thru the ProEFI.
My preference is to use the proefi first and foremost, of course.

My parts to complete the meth kit arrive tomorrow 9Tues.) I have to drop them off in NJ and from there they can finish the tuning.
Can't wait.
