interested, but don't want to be the guinea pig... will consider it after seeing good results on someone else's car.

Does it include the racerom features? Will you be offering e85? On the fly map switching? 0-60 and boost gauges on the dash?

I've sent him the question, hes not a vendor yet on this forum until we finish all of his testing with the parts thats coming available from WORKS.

you serious with the boost gauge?! do you want that with the BOV sound too?

Yruyur · 10-02-2012, 12:24 PM

Yeah the Visconti has the boost on the gauge. Not that I'm fi but would be an option for others.

Sounds cool, can't wait to see some numbers. I'm stuck down here in So-Cal but it's always good having more data available.

phenom86 · 10-09-2012, 11:56 AM

Guys, Ive talked to Pete and he wants to hold a meet/flash/dyno day at WORKS. For the first 5 people he will dyno tune for $699.00 for an hour. He will first get your baseline then tune your car, he will take an hour per car.. I need the first 5 to lock down the date... Im looking at Nov. 3

russv · 10-09-2012, 12:49 PM

What exactly does the tune do that is worth $699? Does it void the warranty? I'm interested but want to see documented facts and figures.

After they strap the car down to the rollers, they will insert a probe into the exhaust for air/fuel monitoring, and a test lead on the #1 plug wire. After verifying the correct fuel pressure and bringing the engine up to temp, they will start a run up to a specified RPM. There is a computer hooked to the dyno that will tell the operator what your HP and torque was for the run. After analyzing the data on the computer, he will make changes to gain power and torque. Gains are different for every car it all depends on what you have on it like exhaust, intake..etc. I prefer a dyno tune because its catered to your car not a plug and play type flash that its generic, so your gains can be different from another car but both are stock.

There are other topics on the flash but WORKS so far i think will be the first to offer a dyno tune flash..

sf86 · 10-09-2012, 02:57 PM

this should work with Automatic Transmission right?

Thanks for the info. I thought it was basically a plug and play software change.

I recommend getting a custom dyno flash than a plug and play version cuz you can what you want out of the car, I like HP but our car lacks torque so my goal is to make torque vs HP.. Our cars feels like it has an invisible turbo, damn torque dip

Khalis · 10-10-2012, 01:37 PM

Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't tunes the last mod you should get? Or at least after intake/header/exhaust so that you can maximize the performance of how these parts work with each other.
