NP, Jonathan. It was well worth the decision. As far as numbers goes it s going to be higher than what his chart says. he is making more tq than what we did on the same hp level on both the dynapack and VD so this car is kicking ass right now. i could care less what the screen says. i etune using VD for before and after changes and what matters is he picked up 60whp from the base map i sent him and he can still turn it up his octane is amazing i was able to run his tune more aggressively throughout the session from my conservative starting point without crossing the line of danger. the guys from DMT did an great job on the install and working with me logging the runs and getting me screen shots and logs emailed back and forth. i passed out @1am on my couch right after the last map was sent. i started tuning sometime between 8-9pm and ended when i fell asleep @1am. i think i sent about 5 files and power came up on each pull. Tony@DMT knows his stuff i like working with operators who know how to convey info from runs while i etune. they are definitely the place to go to in T-Dot

this was a good starting point. once i finalize my new boost control settings allot of guys will be crossing into new territory. keep in mind i never push any of my tunes to the breaking point i work with what im given. the the car keeps making power safely without knocking i keep going but for the younger guys who want to be able to thrash on the car daily your tune will be more conservative to make identical power. its my personal way of doing things.

this is a service i offer on all my tunes and many have taken me up on this offer. you want a dyno tune just schedule a a session on a local dyno and ill etune your car for no additional charge. thats my little way of giving back after the same.

I have tried calling last week but didn't get the phone answered. (figured he is on vacation). Calling again today, so far no one is answering the phone. I will update as soon as I know.

Not a big deal if it doesn't. Both my AEM Failsafe gauge and EcuTek can log boost. I am just hoping more people are willing to post boost plots so we can see the difference in response of the various turbos.

Pretty sure when I go FI whether it be the Innovative setup or FA20 turbo, I'll be driving down to florida for FA20club to purchase, install, and tune. I've ready many of their posts and their customer service is top notch, and that's the most important thing to me. Congrats on your results and have fun with the new setup!

The process was smooth, and the kit installation was straight forward. It was nice to have full support, and this is probably the best reason go with this kit rather than the other big names out there.

Having emails replied within minutes was a very good feeling, and I give them thumbs up for spending the extra effort in sorting out the tune on a Friday night as well :happy0180:

The more I see of the FA20 setup, the more I want to take the couple hour trip down 95. I want to have more fun on the street and not break the bank. This setup looks ideal for that purpose and the fact they are close and have such good ratings really makes it hard to say no.

Car feels good. Power is there and it's drivable daily. Can't wait to turn up some more but I'm very happy where the car is in performance. Really fun not that it wasn't before but for me I like the potential here going forward. Will post some more stuff as i go along.

When you make power things tend to wear or break. That's part of the modding vehicle game and scene. Again the frs is my daily driver so I don't wanna push things on it. I am very impressed with the FA20club kit. For the money and power that seems to come out of it is a good bang for buck option IMO. Now go out and make someone videos in your car so I have something fun to watch:burnrubber:

i agree i have another car so im only using it as my daily to break it in and show ppl what it can do lol :) i will be making videos as i am getting three go pros and prep for the winter as i will be hitting the skid pad and track :) :burnrubber: :burnrubber: :burnrubber:

end goal 500 whp hopefully soon but im very pleased in how the car runs now. Cant really be not happy because this thing feels very safe and very reliable. This current tune is still very conservative. Just going setup another date with tony after some more stuff gets put on like tires vented hood and stuff then we turn up hp.

hey lexusb your ride is sick.
