Why the Meh?

I'm going through my e-mails and calls right now, so you should have a response from me by end of day. Thank you for your patience.

Well, i rolled up at EQ with a 3ft length of hose & said 'make it so'

A quick install & a map reflash later the car runs much smoother, that annoying 2800rpm stumble seems gone for good.

New Dyno Calibration for 2013+:

After a lot of requests from customers with other makes/models (Corvettes, BMW, GT-R), we have finally decided to change our dyno calibration to read like a Dynojet. While I have resisted this change longer than most, it seems that almost all other shops around the country have abandoned the lower reading Mustang dyno calibrations in favor of the Dynojet standard. In the end, these are all just numbers and it doesn't matter to me if our dyno reads low or high. The gains are always the important part, and of course this does not change any real world performance of any of our builds or tunes. A large part of our job here is to make customers happy, and a lot of people are used to seeing higher numbers, so we decided to do what makes the most people happy in the end.

This new calibration is actually the native calibration for our Dynocom dyno. Previously we were running a .85 correction factor to bring our numbers down to Mustang dyno levels. So now our dyno read approximately 15% higher. If anyone wants to compare your old numbers to our new calibration, simply take your whp number and divide by .85. Furthermore, if you would like an updated dyno chart, I can reprint anyone's previous chart with the new calibration. Please send me an e-mail to request a new chart if you would like.

Thanks

I actually got used to the old dyno calibration. Since I baselined and tuned my car on your old calibration you can still run the next tune on the old calibration as well correct? I understand it's easy to switch them back and forth.

Sure I can still provide numbers with the old calibration if you'd like. I can also reprint your old pulls with the new configuration.

Yep this affects all 08+ STI's. It's nothing dangerous, but if the hesitation is annoying, its very much worth the fix.
