Man, this thread better not turn into a tuner war.
Got the CF all done today, but not 100% happy with the center console. Will either redo it or paint it matte black, but it is ok for right now. Have to get more CF to re-do it anyway. All the other panels can out great though. I will get some pictures tomorrow. The trim across the dash looks good since the top of the dash is dark. The trim on the doors is a real big contrast though but I think it looks really good. I will get some pictures tomorrow though. Just as a reminder I have the Grey Dakota interior.

just got the tune and WOW. i'm very very happy, we'll get a dyno on it here in a week or so maybe.
very smooth, very powerful. hell i can burn through 1st and 2nd gear. Alex we'll talk about the tunes all day and we can argue about numbers all we want. What i have i'm very happy with and will continue to go this route. I'll be posting up a review later today in the turbo boards.

No problem. Would rather you have gotten it back than it just disappear somewhere.

there was a guy there with the canbus with the new shiv map (got sent to him friday)
lotta power with 100 octane but like i said those maps were wavy. I'll have to have tony post some pictures so you can see what i'm talking about. but ask carlos or jay or john, that engine was beating like a heart

so many people on here I feel like dont read all the details of what they buy lol...I totally dont know who it was w.the 100oct and procede w/canbus...but there seem to be a lot of people on here trying to move up on the stages, or bump the user tq settings b/c of octane....and it only goes so far
![]() ive got mine set to 90% user tq with full stage 1 mods...car runs like a champ, oil cooler barely ever even kicks in...but if you bump that to 97% or 100% with 100oct, and dont have the exhaust mods etc...its goin to be a hella shitty ride lol...everyone wants cheap power...gosh...gotta do it right!! im hoping that flash looks good on your cars and runs em smooth, thats real important and it has to be nice to the engine temps (something dinan battled with for a while on their tune). i'll be curious to see dynos/further updates from those guys. as for an example of a solid looking dyno on a procede canbus, jpsimons car really lit it up on pump gas: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=249022

yeah that looks a hella lot more smooth than what this guy was running today.
looks like they still have smoothing at like 5-6, i'd be interested to see what it looks like on at 3 (where we had it set today.
