Slapping a car on a dyno, and jacking up boost and timing is easy to extract power. Doing it with drive-ability and longevity in mind is not.)

One of these days I really must meet the local crowd - all the BS and politics at SOCSA a couple of years back really turned me off...

Agreed - had my Forester XT tuned by Chett Meyer(ECUFlash) and all I can say is WOW. More power, more torque, stock drive-ability and a happier engine for less than what a Unichip without "tune" would have cost. Bargain!

Yeah, I've helped Chett out before with patching roms - he's one of the good guys.

Yep, I can't think of anybody else I'd trust locally, except for Pyro of course but they're a bit far.

Where can I find Chett Meyer? Always keen to learn more

sav · 08-19-2014, 06:14 AM

Can get you in contact but he doesn't do 86/BRZ.

Aaaha, specialized in Forced induction. Little gained by tweaking ECU's on NA engines. Thanx anyway.

Cool.

Blacked out my Head Lights and turn signals, almost shat myself baking them

That looks freakn amazing! You have balls to do that as well. Give this man a bells! (and some octane booster :-D) Class!

How do these gains look for a NA 86?

Ayrton · 08-23-2014, 04:54 AM

Great gains!

FT_86_SM_GP · 08-23-2014, 09:46 AM

What caused the jump from 116 wkw to 139wkw? Would be nice to know Ryan

The coast (just kidding).

Ayrton · 08-23-2014, 01:49 PM

I wish!
My un-modded 86 only made 180 Nm and 116 wkw on the same dyno back in April. Terrible torque dip between 3000 & 4500 rpm, as is normal on the factory map.
