Boosted Tuning - Chico, CA Review

I met Jay from Boosted Tuning at a Subaru meet in Chico, we talked about my car/engine and he was really interested in tuning an FA20. He normally works on Imprezas and Evos but he did an awesome job on my car as well. We used BRZEdit, don't have any dynos of the car stock but here are some baseline and after tune dynos from my car. The car was road tuned and the dynos are from a virtual dyno. Gonna be putting the car on the dyno at Thunder Hill this sat for confirmation on the numbers. I'm assuming they'll drop a bit since these are some of the higher numbers I've seen on an NA car running 91 oct. Performance mods include Rev Works headers, Nameless 2.5" over/front pipe w/ high flow cat, Nameless 3" axleback, Perrin intake inlet tube, TRD air filter, Perrin lightweight crank pulley

After tune numbers uncorrected (the average of the pulls)


2 of my baseline runs on OEM tune (the higher numbers of all the runs) vs after the tune uncorrected (ran 190hp consistantly):


2 of my baseline runs on OEM tune (the higher numbers of all the runs) vs after the tune (average of the pulls) temperature corrected (8 degree temp difference between the 2 since it was getting late)


He took a few baseline logs one day and worked another few days on a baseline tune for me, then we were able to bust out the entire tune in one day. I HIGHLY recommend hitting him up for your tuning, cant comment on his pricing but it is very reasonable and probably gonna be the cheapest most accurate option if you're in the area. Also a buddy of mine has a Visconnti tuned BRZ, he said he hasn't been happy with it so he sent Jay his logs after hearing how good my process went and after looking over them Jay was able to see that his car had knock with an advance multiplier of .35 (according to him it should be at 1) Idk if he'd charge you for overlooking your logs if you aren't 100% satisfied with your tune but it'd be worth emailing him to find out.

His website is HERE

Figured I'd update this with actual dyno numbers. Went to MCE Dynos on Thunderhill raceway. Had alot of factors working against me between exhaust reverb and poor airflow but the numbers are decent for Cali 91 NA. I know it'll probably do over 180 on the road. Baseline is the OEM tune with the mods listed above.
