rtbrjason Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 The Dyno at EFI is the heartbraker. It reads a little low. Nobody has to make any excuses. A lot of us have been there. I agree, but even on a low reading dyno I was expecting closer to 250 hp and 280 tq. Chris was nice enough to log each pull for me though as I had my logger running so I was able to see just how bad it was. Attached is a quick shot of the pull charted in the airboy sheet. The thicker lines represent my best pull on the dyno while the reference numbers are very typical of what I normally get on a pull. You can see she was running like shit though. The 4 and 5k regions were where I was trying some more agressive AVCS mappings rather than tapering to 0 there and it seems fairly clear that it doesn't like that.

sqc146 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 This is not to bash EFI. I just think it's fact about that dyno. I think Chris is the best tuner in the NE and maybe one of the top in the country. He has a great crew. Every time I have had any service or tuning at EFI I'm 100% satisfied. I have had more than 35 years of performance work done and I still can't turn a wrench but I know how a vehicle should perform. I have had other shops take all the fun out of great vehicles and mods. The entire idea behind owning these types of vehicles is to have fun. I'm sorry to ramble but when Chris opened his shop I had 08 Forester that I had basic set-up done in highly recommended other shop. I had a full Cobb exhaust,VF43, injectors, SPT intake, STI top mount, fuel pump and AP. The Foz ran better then stock but not what I expected. I was going back and forth with the other tuner. He basically wanted to sell me more parts to solve the problem. He said the tune was fine. I drove 70 miles to EFI and just wanted some pulls. Chris ended up retuning the Forester. My base-line tune was: 221/230. My EFI tune was:: 269/336. This was just a retune and no new parts were added. Chris had found 48whp / 96 lbs of tq. Incredible!

subiedad51 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 That's awesome. I don't think anyone is bashing EFI here. In fact, almost everyone on here in the Tri-State/NE area recommends Chris and EFI for tuning. And yes alot of people have said their Dyno is a heartbreaker.

subiedad51 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Wow - That thing must be crazy since it's so light. My Cooper will be there soon It's still totally stock but I'm getting an AP and a DP. That will be my spring time gift after the clutch and TB on the Leggy. I want a ride in that thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will be my spring time gift after the clutch and TB on the Leggy. I want a ride in that thing anytime, but i seriously need an LSD... i might change to a full ingen intake and do quaife LSD, but that's about it for the c30 i think. I might dyno it again after that to see. I don't expect too much more out of it on a stock turbo.

fourortwowheels Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 LOL couldnt hear the commentary but the power curve is very nice! keep in mind EFI's dyno reads way low and the tune's claims are totally true. on a dynojet you would have seen over 300wtq and about 250-60whp no problems. but numbers are just that, NUMBERS. the power curve and driveability is what really matters! those swedish dudes knock it out of the park for a OTS tune.

MTE is the only tuner I know of that actually has the same bosch equipment as Volvo and can completely write software from scratch for any of their ECUs. They maintain all of Volvo's safeguards in their tunes as well. They definitely lived up to it and iPD has direct communication with the tuner in Sweden which got my newer ECU programming issues solved in days! I just wish they had better logging capabilities, but they seem to know what they're doing.
