Excelerate Performance: Your Northeast Performance and Installation Center - Page 3 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

The XLR8 BR-Z has been dyno tuned! We just want to say thank you to John Visconti from Visconti Tuning for taking time out of his busy schedule to tune the vehicle. It was also a pleasure to finally meet you in person. We'd also like to thank MR Performance on Long Island for letting us make your shop noisy and smelly for a few hours.

Review:
The tune could not have come out better! I have already put about 150 miles on the car since the tune in a bunch of different driving situations, such as rush hour traffic, back road driving, open highway acceleration, late night straight aways and cold start driving this morning. The difference between the Vtune and the base map are night and day. The car drives better now than it did when it was stock. Power delivery is excellent. Torque is steady across the board and acceleration is silky smooth. The base map had torque spikes and lulls which made driving a little annoying and really took away from the experience of driving the car. I'm more than happy to say that drive-ability is 110% better than it ever was. Flooring the car is so much more satisfying and smoother than it was before. Although the base map did make more torque in certain areas, it wasn't as smooth, having a lot of ups and downs throughout the torque curve.

Now for the numbers and the stuff you guys really want to see! My BR-Z is stock and the best run we had was 261whp and 220wtq. Because he was building a tune and we weren't just doing dyno pulls the car got really heat soaked. The dyno graph I have shows 245 whp and about 210 wtq which was the lowest reading we received. Most of the runs were around 255whp and 218wtq. The tuning was done on a Mustang dynamometer which does read lower than most dyno's but I was more than happy with the power the car made. That's an average of about a 100whp over stock!

All in all, this is definitely the tune that I would recommend for this kit and I will continue to go back to, and recommend, John Visconti for all of my tuning needs. He knows exactly what he is doing and it truly does show in his efficiency and in the finished product.

Well, here's the graph and the link to the video!:

So who's going to the Uconn car show on the 13th?

ExcelerateRep · 04-10-2014, 12:26 PM

I'm going to be putting together a Stoptech stocking order soon. If anybody is local and doesn't mind picking up the rotors at my shop then I can offer free shipping on top of our deep discounts. All I need is a deposit to put the parts on the order. I already have a couple people doing this.

We have the Kraftwerks kits here in stock. Let us know when you're ready.

Also guys, I am placing the stocking order with Stoptech today. So if you want to save on shipping and do a local pick up, now would be the time to inquire.

I just need dates. I'll do one whenever I am free. I had an absolute blast at the last one so it definitely needs to happen more. The next one we have, I'd like to have you guys see the shop. We were closed last meet.

Shoot me a PM for pricing on any product and I will attempt to beat any competitors price. We have a warehouse that stocks almost every part for these cars that's only a day away from everyone in the Northeast! I will offer Free Shipping on almost any part!

I just want to say I have had nothing but the best experience with Excelerate Performance. Some of, if not the best customer service I have ever had with a vendor/shop. Ordered my kraftwerks kit from them, and received it in no time. Kept me updated with everthing, and were quick to respond with any questions or concerns i had, definitely will be making more purchases from them. Thanks again Excelerate!!
