I will be buying a tune from them this next month as soon as I get the holidays sorted out. I am not a huge fan of piggy back systems and I would implore anyone who is in the market for a flash tune, and stellar customer service give them a shout.
+1. Truth.

So does Wedge do the back and forth email tuning?

Going to dyno this beast today! I'm so curious to see the comparison to my JB4 dyno.

Two things are different -
1. Wedge Tune

2. Walnut Blasted



Here is the dyno sheet for comparing. Specs and Mods :
BMS DCI
JB4 G5 ISO
map 5
92 oct

If some can make a powerband that is linear with 370hp/370tq or even an increasing one to 370hp. They can have my money.

Our road course tunes are typically done in the way you're describing where torque is brought on and kept linear such as what you'd typically see in an NA car. We don't recommend that configuration on typical street setups as it takes all the fun out of having a turbo on the car but on the road course linear torque delivery is highly preferred given tons of feedback we've received from tuning actual N54 based race car setups across the US, Germany, Russia and Australia over the years.

I just want a flat torque curve for the love! hah!

I know the snails are small. But I just want some throttle response and linear power delivery to redline in another gear but 1st.

I am hoping that DP's and the tune from wedge is going to get me close.

Eager to see the new dyno.

Like this ?



There is enough throttle / torque response than to know what to do with

Here's one I quickly dug up on here:

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=837026



Many more reviews and dynos if you search around the forums. Google Image search is great too, you can just type in ptf dyno in the search

The above review wasn't a road course type tune though. Road course tuning has flatter torque delivery to redline without early drop off in the 5k range and uses additional VANOS tuning, not just lower boost, to accomplish its torque/power delivery.

So that's almost exactly what I want except, I don't want to break the 400HP/TQ barrier. And if possible I'd really like the horse power to be higher than the torque. Or whatever is needed to make the power not drop off until ~6.5KRPM

FBO, no meth, E50-E60 and "0" timing corrections at WOT gear to gear

A dyno only tells half the facts, how the car performs on the road is another story. Here is another customer's log 335is FBO "no meth" E50-E60

Ladies and Gentle men -


368 whp & 438 wtq

+27 whp & 43 wtq over my last setup not to mention the buttery smooth power on, throttle response and rock solid AFRs. Really though, the delivery makes it feel completely different from behind the wheel. The car is currently making more power at 6500 rpm than it did at peak with the previous tune. LOL


Lets keep in mind that my only other power mods are a DCI. This is on chevron pump 92 oct.





I'll post the log and video to go with this dyno pull later on tonight.

Wow that's amazing! Now I know what my next mod will be after getting my downpipes on since I have 92 octane also.

Do you know what the max boost was for the run?
