legacy2.5GT05 Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Just got my first tune done by Paul L. at Yimi last night. It was an open source tune on my 05 LGT sedan 5EAT with K&N Typhoon intake. Pretty damn good numbers I'd say. http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a380/sdavis1986/Legacy%20GT/Photo6.jpg
Boostjunkie Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Really strong car that tuned really well. About 15-20whp/wtq higher than OTS Cobb Stage 2 5EAT LGT's on my dyno and legacy2.5GT05's car was a Stage 1 tune. Stock downpipe and uppipe. Just an intake and mufflers welded on to the stock y-pipe.
05GT Guru Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Damn nice numbers, time to gut those cats. I would love to see what this 5eat puts out stage 2.
cfdrumr Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 I am going to get a catless UP and a TMIC and beat steve!!!

Jim_KT Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 To the OP, Would you be able to post baseline dyno results of your car?

JoeFromPA Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Those would be respectable low-stage II HP numbers for a 5-speed....damn nice. Joe
dmp Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Pretty solid numbers indeed. When I get home I'll be able to see the curve and offer more input SOLD | '06 spec.B - VF52/AVO/740cc/Up/Down | 238awhp | 50-80mph 3.1 seconds.
Infamous1 Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Pretty solid numbers indeed. When I get home I'll be able to see the curve and offer more input lol not really it is a photo of the computer readout and the curve is chopped right at about 5200 where the HP and TQ cross.
Boostjunkie Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 lol not really it is a photo of the computer readout and the curve is chopped right at about 5200 where the HP and TQ cross. :lol: You've obviously never tuned a 5EAT LGT on a dyno. That is where the torque converter finally locks up and the "choppiness" is an artifact of that. Here a comparison of a few 5EAT cars on my dyno: http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y207/Pisadong/5EATcomparison.jpg
Jim_KT Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Uh oh. I can't view the pic you just posted but is my 5EAT in that comparison?

I was talking about the photo chopping the dyno chart. I have seen numerous 5eat dyno charts to know the obvious

I have seen numerous 5eat dyno charts to know the obvious Errrrr...... my bad! Somehow read "chopped" as choppy. It is funny how the 5EAT have a little curly cue in the curves as the torque converter finishes locking up
Boostjunkie Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Uh oh. I can't view the pic you just posted but is my 5EAT in that comparison? Yup. It's the highest one You made about 15whp/wtq more than the OP. As we both know there was a bit more in your car, but you wanted it super safe, so that's you got.
Jim_KT Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Yup. It's the highest one You made about 15whp/wtq more than the OP. As we both know there was a bit more in your car, but you wanted it super safe, so that's you got. Yup, and I'm still happy with the tune. I seem to remember that you stated that my car was a little more knock-prone than most cars that hit your dyno.
Boostjunkie Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Yup, and I'm still happy with the tune. I seem to remember that you stated that my car was a little more knock-prone than most cars that hit your dyno. I don't think I remember saying that. Regardless, it made good power so no big deal one way or the other.
Jim_KT Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 I don't think I remember saying that. Regardless, it made good power so no big deal one way or the other. Think you're right. It was at the dyno day with my first stage1 tune from a different source that was knock happy.
JoeFromPA Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 I don't think I remember saying that. You don't you you remember? Either you remember or you don't! You are under oath man! Joe
cfdrumr Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 I need to beat steve. Would I make more power if I had a catless UP and catback or will his (my old) intake still make more?
Infamous1 Posted October 24, 2008 Posted October 24, 2008 I need to beat steve. Would I make more power if I had a catless UP and catback or will his (my old) intake still make more? That is a seriously confusing question... But to explain, it really all depends on what the engine likes and the quality of the tune. In some case some setups are just stronger than others but there usually all within the same range, with the exception of the occasional "ringer".
