Leggy GT Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 I know the 5eat sucks up quite a bit of power but these numbers seem really low it's tuned via speed density and has all supporting mods needed including a built short block and ipt tranny. The drive ability is poor also. Its seems like it spools terribly late. I just expected a little bit more from 22.5 psi from this set up. Does anyone have any recommendations for tuners in the Mid Atlantic region that may have experience tuning 5eats. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Dyno sheet with numbers attached.

Thats really not right. Quick4dr is running a 1.5xtr and putting down 350ish hp/tq. Idk mid Atlantic but if you ever have plans to be in the tristate area, we have efi which are well versed in 5eats. You can also check out cryo or tuning alliance for etunes . I bought an auto be more involved in my uninvolvedness . 200k+ Club If you can't blind them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit.

Leggy GT Posted October 16, 2016 Author Share Posted October 16, 2016 Thanks for your help. It's greatly appreciated! I would prefer an actual tune vs an e tune but Connecticut is so far from Virginia though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy.B Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 You could always try Edward from XRT as well. http://www.xtremeracingtuning.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=116 Here's a few Turbo Outback 5EAT's that he's tuned. I'm not boosted but he's done some fancy things with my 5EAT. It grabs really good on take off. Way better than stock. He also changed shift points so it'll hold gears a little longer instead of trying to shift to 5th really quick. Shifts are a bit firmer and quicker, especially downshifting. He has different levels he can tune the 5EAT towards too. All in all, I'm very happy with it. He's very good with diagnosing issues as well.

Timothy.B Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 He's located in Barbados so e-tuning would be the only option, although nothing wrong with that. He's very quick to reply to questions and with ROM revisions. Here's another link to some more info. We also have a group so in case you have any car related questions, someone can most likely help you out. Timothy.B's 2011 LEGACY 3.6R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cBax Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Why do the runs start at 3.6k? Shouldnt you be starting it much earlier? '05 Outback XT www.facebook.com/baxleysspeedshop www.baxleysspeedshop.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
west_minist Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Most likely to reduce tranny shift or TC lockup. Graphs is a little different up to that point. You have TC lockup around 3200rpms for stock transmission operation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was tuned by All Aspects. They can tune well with manuals but I don't think they have much experience with a 5eat. I was thinking about making a trip down to Motion Lab in Charlotte. Has anyone here heard anything about them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm unsure but I have seen some 5eat dyno graphs start the pull right around 2k as if it were a manual. I'm not sure why my pulls start so late.

Timothy.B Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 He does, and you just responded to "him" West_minist is Ed from XRT. Actually, I think a video would be the best thing to show you.

Leggy GT Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 It does look like shifting is a lot better! The way mine drives, its like it bogs down at part throttle and normal city driving she only goes when you floor it . It also bogs down between shifts in the higher gears.

Leggy GT Posted March 16, 2017 Author Share Posted March 16, 2017 ***UPDATE*** I returned to the states a couple weeks ago and recently had a chance to get her retuned. I took her down to Motion Lab Tuning in Charlotte NC. I must say the tune is spot on and drive ability is a lot smoother and I have power where I need it. Well worth the trip time and money spent. Attached or the new numbers vs old numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
