I'm stuck with 340HP. And get picked on regularly by a stock Hyundai Genesis coupe 3.8 and Nissan 370Z. But us V6ers can probably get around a corner faster since we don't have the extra weight in the nose like the V8's!

Maybe I missed the reply, but can you advise the gain with / without pulley on the R.

You didn't miss the answer I think Velocity missed the question, but Stuart told me in a prior email that the tune alone should yield around 600 HP. I have only tested it on the butt dyno and it certainly feels like it. I would be curious to know what the toque gains are.

The tune alone made a nice difference, but now after seeing his earlier post on the tune and pulley gains, I am very interested in this mod next and curious to see what the dyno sheet looks like.

Wow! Nice power. What's the % drivetrain loss on the AWD? What would that 549whp equate to at the crank?

Not sure until I get the 'Before' dyno sheets. Again, still waiting....

I'm expecting that works out around 620-625 at the crank.

No news for V6, if you need any help with the 3.0 base, turns out my neighbor down the street has a portable dyno and I have a 2016 base 3.0, he can bring the dyno here or I can go there. I dyno'd mine this past weekend, and talked to him. Any weekend would be good for him.

The XF we're waiting on is also waiting on dealer hotline support for some itouch issue.. Its really a road block until resolved at the dealer.

I'm open to testing because of this 3.0 road block, but our main issue with the remote testing is not getting dyno results in print, on paper or pdf form of the base and mod file runs..we've dyno'd a hand full of cars(remotely) with no luck of printouts, wrong print outs, printout with just graphs and no numbers/data, even printouts from what I don't even believe was the car in question on the dyno, think we can write a book by this point, don't get me wrong, I don't blame the car owners, we've tried getting all this info from the Dyno shops directly via email and phone with no luck. Stuart has been quite busy so he might not of had a chance to see your post, shoot him an email and he'll respond ASAP. I don't mind working something out "providing" we can get the data to show everyone waiting patiently for these results..the more data and dyno results the better. I'll admit we're far more ahead in the 5.0 production like most have noted, but that's solely to thank the generous forum members giving me real life datalog feedback so that I could do tweeks to the file. With the release of the Vtech hand held this helped accelerate things quickly for 5.0, we don't need to ship around a Kess anymore so this helped avoid shipping delay times. We have numerous 5.0's now running our files but no 3.0's(aka..no datalog input to develop things)..we tried working with a few 3.0 ppl but this requires a lot more time than I believe they imagined, results need to be fead back asap, (doing remotely) the owner is my ears and the datalog is my eyes, when I don't see or hear anything, I can't be of any help.

Just a quick side comment about the tune in my V8 S: now that I've got more miles on the tune, the car seems to be pulling even harder than it did when I first flashed the ECU. The tune was definitely worth the money and the VTech programmer made this a ton easier than sending the ECU back and forth.

Well, the dyno is not going anywhere and we are both semi retired and like I said, I can have the dyno to myself for whole weekend at a time , if it doesn't cut into our fishing we'll help. I live in a drag race - redneck - fishing neighborhood so my other neighbors won't mind occasional burnout, they might actually come out and race since mine is the lone Jag here, and they want to race it all the time anyway.
My boat was used as a Raymarine test bed for 3 years, so I have an idea what goes into testing and info exchange.

Here's a link to last weekends dyno pulls.

Sounds like this might work. Can you email me at Stuart@VelocityAP.com and we can figure this out?

Assuming you don't have one hooked....

Oh it's a dynojet, it will work indeed!

The 3.0 tune just might come sooner than expected!

Hit up Stuart and we'll get everything sorted out! ;-)

Anyone know the location / Address of ECU Turning
near Gettysburg Pa. Or Maybe Washington DC is a better reference point.

Thank you

Maybe not the most kind to talk about a competitor in a sponsor's thread.

Absolutely right. Didn't note this was Stuart's thread. Sorry, Stuart.

Default Ive often considered doing some sort of upgrade....

But I always back off due to the sheer technical mumbo jumbo that goes over the head of myself who doesn't turn wrenches, nor understands 95% of what you are talking about.

I bet im not alone.

If you just set up a package for non technical people, and dumb it down like Dynan does....IE...Stage 1, II, III, IV, as well as comfort us California drivers in terms of passing smog and CIL's I bet you'd get myself and others in my shoes interested in doing something that doesn't feel overly technical and possibly could appear to be a mistake for us that havnt a clue.
