Mike isn't kidding. He has such a low reading Dyno. Heartbreaker for sure.

 

No joke, that dyno reads absurdly low.

 

If you your 3500lb car actually put 135WHP to the ground, you'd be getting roasted by Civics all day.

 

What gives? I get that it's a tuning tool, and all, but let's keep things in line with reality (both high and low!)...

Are you still running the VF40 turbo?

 

Yup.

Jmp billet upgrade

What does a stock Legacy GT dyno at?

 

Yeah he's had some issues with it recently.

It works, but reads very low ever since he got it back up and running. It needs to be recalibrated basically.

 

 

150/190 - 91

205/275 - e85

 

Before the hard drive died, my car stock dyno'd 190hp/199tq on his dyno.

He lost his calibration when the hard drive died.

Didn't notice this, you're right, holy crap!

 

Easy math: 150 to 200 on this dyno is like going from 300 to 400 on one of the high reading dynojets out here. :eek:

 

That's what I was thinking, but I was looking at the torque numbers/improvement.

In other news...I'm still chasing issues I guess.

 

Idling ~6 points rich, -3.8 fine knock learn, occasional stumble when taking off from a stop, surging under steady load (mostly noticeable climbing hills)

 

 

 

Any one have a clue what might be going on?

I'm not sure if you saw this question.

 

Mike says it's not needed. The flutter is normal on Subaru's.

It's a sales gimmick, but other than having to swap the wires around in the connector(reverse polarity) it went just like any other ebcs.

Sorry I haven't been on here to answer questions or post graphs and such...I'm still waiting to get internet at my apartment and I've been working a hell of a lot lately.

Thanks, I have one that I was going to install instead of a Grimmspeed but now I think I might keep the Grimmspeed and sell the Company 23 one.
