Myself and hundreds, if not thousand+ others will testify, even a stage 1 91 octane off the shelf OFT map blows the DOORS off the stock tune, all around- throttle response, power, smoothness/operation across the entire powerband... I believe that's what @ stugray is trying to underline here. It's much more than just a raw power increase mod.
plus data logging and ability to upgrade tunes + E85 potential... picking one up for $400-500 is a no brainer best bang for your buck in the performance department. |
Yea I get what you're saying. Unfortunately all I have to judge upon is the dyno charts. And across the dyno charts I don't see much of an improvement (not looking at just the peaks).
I just worry that a lot of people get the placebo + butt dyno effect lol.
But again, I do agree that the OFT has a lot of potential, its useful if you're a tuner, its useful if you want to go E85, and its useful if you plan on doing a lot of bolt on mods for your NA car.
This guy has $700 to spend right now though. I still dont know if putting 500+ into a single thing will be more satisfying.
