Here we go again... another +10000 for you!!!

...ED and the team at EQ TUNING!!

So here I am reflecting back on my tune today at EQ. All i can say is WOW!
Thanks for the great tune! Just gotta let everyone know what a awesome job Ed did in tuning my bugeye. It is making great power. *** dyno says YAY! The charts read below.

The day went as follow (for those who are wondering).
I got to the shop at 10:15. Hung around a little bit and chopped it up with Adam while waiting for Ed. 10:30ish came around and Ed shows up. Did a little hand shaking, asked me what was on my car and then he went to work on making a base to start with. Little while later he comes out, plugs into my ECU, pulls up the crappy tune that was ORIGINALLY on my ECU, we look at it, laughed at it, and go wow i can believe the motor hasn't blown up yet on this tune.

Then we tune. Easy as pie! Fun too!

No more pinging! No more rough idle. Response is so much more crisp. Acceleration is sooooo smoooth!

ONE major problem thought!... my gears have become TOO short! LOL

My numbers came out as follows on my 03' EJ20
296.6 hp @ 6810 rpm 260.9 ftlbs @ 4690 rpm 19.5 peak boost @ 3800rpm A/f is at 10.7 - 10.8 at full boost!

Thank You for the tune ED!!! Def. worth it!!! and to think i almost didn't have it done! HAHAHA... i'm lucky i went through with the tune!!! night and day!

Thanks again EQ TUNING!!!

And Adam, Ed, Sonya, Chris, all the guys/girls at Eq Tuning, come down to my work for some good Chinese food. J's Garden 134 Robles Way. Vallejo 94591. A good tune and good Chinese food... what a combo... hahaha!

Congrats on the newly found power!

I'll be running an 18g (Blouch) + Grimm Speed P&P, and similar fuel mods as well.



"HAHAHA... i'm lucky i went through with the tune!!! night and day!"

I believe it. I had mine on the dyno and after on the road tune. No contest. Say whatever you want til your face melt off regarding this method - I'm sold.
