I dont know Anj, I dont like the way the car is running since the TT tune, almost seems as if its straining up top. Im going to pull the plugs this weekend to take a look to see if shes running on the leaner side of things.

lol...or the lack luster customer service we got when we were down there. Almost gave us the impression that we were bothering them with our business.

They do offer generic flashes. How do you monitor knocks? Were you tuned by TT?

What was the point then in asking if they do flashes then?
So basically your just assuming that you have knock up top?

I dunno, the torque curve doesn't look that bad, you just don't have that big initial hump that a lot of Evos have. With similar mods, mine didn't have it either. The real question is, how does the car drive? Do you feel the difference? IMO "making the numbers" on a dyno is way overrated. For me, as long as I'm close to where I thought I'd be, and as long as I can feel the difference on the street, it's good enough.

I have been tuning and modding DSM’s/Evo’s since 1995. I know when timing is being pulled WOT, and then When I go on the the Dyno and see that my WHP went from 342 to 298, it kinda proves it you know? Now do this 4 times, each time stating that there shouldn’t be any more issues.
I wana try a new tuner, this is nothing new, Al has taken in the exact same customers with the exact same issues as I have and he has fixed them.

Interesting. I guess I should have gone to Al for the second time instead of trying TT. I also started throwing a p0300 code after being tuned by TT, but thats another whole matter.

Yeah and did nothing to add any power in the extra pulls they made. From what ive read, Al tunes a little richer so he is able to add more timing which increases the tq figure. Not sure how true that is, just what ive seen.

Interesting...I havent thrown one it in about 400 miles now since I started driving a lot easier which cut down the time the TT would idle the car before it shutting off. Ill tell ya though, I came from a heavily modded Honda to a car I thought I could throw a few grand at and be done with, with little to no headaches and some reliability. This isnt what I had in mind.

Yeah im surprised you guys actually made the trip down here, when al is pretty close to you guys. Also considering you made pretty damn good numbers with a mail in flash.
Did you say anything to TT while you were there about your numbers?
