Atlanta area member with OFT wanna help somone out pre-HPDE?
 
So I just got in touch with topspeed motorsports and they canned their tuner. I had an appointment with them tomorrow morning to tune the car before the Santa Run HPDE event at AMP.

Anyone in the ATL area wanna flash me an OFT tune to get it running better? Case of beer? Bueller? Bueller? :bow:

The car has an Injen intake, Crawford BPBs, Ptuning EL Headers and full catless exhaust.

I am not very happy right meow

The issue is here is you can only flash ONE car with OFT, the tablet stays married to that VIN until the stock tune is put back on that car.

If you need it before your HPDE, OFT can probably rush ship you one.

Just call James at HRI tuning and get EcuTek. He can get you setup with an eTune. It is worth paying the money for a good tune.

I don't know how I feel about eTuning :-(

I'd rather have the car strapped down on a dyno see what my individual car is doing.

Thanks for the advice though!

A WOT dyno tune is only one piece of the puzzle, and doing a proper tune of all normal driving experiences on the dyno can get very costly. The best way is to do a proper street tune and then fine tune fueling and ignition at WOT on the dyno. James is the best, and his eTuning techniques are the best.

Yeah I talked to him on FB....waiting to hear back from Perrin about military discounts on the protune ECutek kit......

ughhh go fast is expensive

thanks for the advice!

sucks that i'll still have to pay to dyno it at least one...the guys in the ptuning thread want to see what kind of numbers the car puts down

If anyone local has a tactrix, that's what you're looking for. It can flash OFT roms without marriage limits, since OFT roms are just opensource roms.
