I know one tuner in particular, left me running hot after the conversations i had with him.
From my experience, i think the smartest path is built. You can get away without building, but why chance it ? |

Sorry I don't buy that, if it was E85 I'd have an easier time believing that. I worry for your motor if that's even remotely true |

Old as in 2013 old. I used to be happy to pioneer the platform til engines started going. I returned to my roots (MAZDA), and only recently got back into an FR-S again, after i was forced out of my FD. |

That's pretty stand up to replace your engine. Did he perform a remote street tune or did he tune you remotely from dyno runs?

Agreed. Your double checking your tuners work by reviewing the datalogs correct? Ive running the same kit with similar mods (though with a gt71r) on 93octane @910ft of elevation and anything past 339whp I'm getting knock in the upper 6k+range in my 3rd gear pulls.

Any idea what %DI/PI you're running in the upper load/RPM range?

Yeah he and I weren't seeing eye to eye on anything when that went down. Needless to say, i didn't get a free engine out of it.

He showed me logs while there to plead his case, and I asked for the logs to be emailed to me - that never happened. One of my friends told me he was using my dyno graph to sell tunes shortly thereafter. So yeah, stand up dude. Sent from my XT1095
