Shit what am I going to do with my 14 controllers now

When Justin from bye performance is on the mms dyno it is guaranteed to be a good tune using the mms dyno

I think it needs to be mentioned that with 346hp at the wheels and over 500Wtq according to Evo R's dyno this car couldn't even crack 13's at the drags.

From what I've seen amongst other groups, Asian drivers don't seem to be too great on the 1/4 mile so I'm sure that played a part as well

The issues you have with most marketed tunes is your locked in to the tuning program. This unless you have the dongle with your map / tune & cable provided with the cost of the tune in you purchase.

One of the smartest way to go theses days is to set your self up as a self tuner and get a map sent to you from the likes of Graham at boosted performance in the USA. There is a lag to how this is done however you learn along the way.

We could start our own forum section / group to do this and share the knowlage base. I would say it will be very affordable to those that do not have large amounts of money to spend on a name brand tune. You need to set the car up for AFR & data log. If need be there could be a donation section for PWX members to purchase the items and then these could be loaned if you make a donation.
It would be smarter if you purchased the items then you could log & tune as you go. However I understand some may not be in this situation.
