Default Precision Auto

Just wanted to say thanks to the people that recommended Ross @ Precision. I got my emanage installed and tuned by him today. I am definitely pleased and it was worth the trip from Richmond down to Chesepeake.

I can't remember what I started at before the install, I will have to ask Ross, but the dyno came in at 258.8 WHP and 242 WTQ. He said since it was so hot and his dyno is usually conservative he thinks it would be more if I took it somewhere else and got it dynoed. I think thats pretty good for a 5AT with Injen RD (in pop charger form), Topspeed Headers, Motordyne Plenum Spacer, Borla TD and Emanage Blue! Thats not a whole lot of performance stuff, but I would estimate its added 20-25 whp since it was stock. The total of those things (cost and what I had installed) comes out to be about $100 per WHP. Not bad, but I guess I should really just save my money and go conservative FI for the daily driver

I would recommend Ross highly! And again, thanks everyone!

Oh yeah, my A/F ratio was in the 14's... it was bad, just like I thought it was going to be. Ross managed to get it to a constant 12.8. Again,
