I've talked to EB3 motorsports here in northern VA about scheduling some dyno time. So here's my plan, I'm going to reload the stock tune, strap it down and do a (nearly) stock dyno pull for a baseline. (NOTE: I have a JBA axleback exhaust, but that's really just a muffler swap - VERY little, if any, HP gain over stock). Once I get my baseline, I'll install the TB and Vararam while it's still strapped down and do another Dyno with just those changes. Finally, I'll add the Predator Canned tune and do one more pull (time permitting) and post the results of all three pulls (or at least the first two).

I know lots of people are wanting to see a "Vararam Only" dyno, but I simply can't justify installing it, dyno, then pulling it off and adding the TB and another dyno. Still, this should give a good indication of a Vararam/VMAX vs stock dyno run without a tune.

Since the no-tune VR needs some time to "learn" and is supposed to perform better on the street than strapped to a dyno, I'm curious if there's anything you guys would like me to log at cruising speeds or WOT using my predator on the stock airbox, then again on the Vararam.

Let me know...

Since I've already dyno'd with VMax, VR, SOLO highflow cats and the numbers weren't good I'd be interested in seeing timing, KR, and what the LTFTs lock in at.
