Whether you decide to get just one map or both, you really can't go wrong. Don't expect to get "dyno queen" numbers from the now infamous "heartbreak dyno", it's not gonna happen. Then again, it does'nt take 400+ to run great times. I broke 12s with less than 300 awhp.

Why are you not scheduling tuning anymore? Did something happen with the tuning dept. at Gruppe-S? Do you know when you will be tuning again?

Down dyno? That seems odd. Dyno seemed to work perfectly fine the night Gruppe-S announced no more tuning....

Hey guys,

We should be up and running again in about 3-4 weeks with installation and tuning services. We are currently exploring our options in terms of replacing the entire dyno. It's a toss up between the Dynapack, Dyno-dynamics, or another Mustang at this poitn. Sorry to everyone who we had to cancel installation and dyno appointments on. We'll make it up to you guys. Thanks

What happened that makes you guys have to replace an entire dyno? Ive never heard of a shop having to replace the entire dyno. Is there a flaw with the Mustang Dyno design that creates problems that are not fixable? Hope you guys had some kind of insurance/warranty on it. Those things are costly and sometimes not readily available.

You can ask Mike what happened to the dyno, I'm sure he'd tell you. We're not discussing exactly what went wrong with the dyno as a courtesy to all involved, you're pushing on the wrong direction man.

How does your tuner Mike Warfield feel about the dyno change? Is he ready to let go of the "heartbreaker" and go with something else?
