I put previous posts of my Steeda CAI/SCT X3 results. They were good, but after discussing with Steeda how I thought they would be better, they decided to bring my car in for a custom dyno tune that they could use for future tuning of AT cars. They already have great tunes which have put MT cars over 400 RWHP.
Heres what we got:
Baseline last month (before mods):
RWHP: 342 RWTQ: 306 :curses:
After CAI and Steeda-modified Tune:
RWHP: 370 RWTQ: 340
After Custom Dyno Tune:
RWHP: 385 RWTQ: 360
ALL these were done at equivalent Temps and in 3rd gear to compare apples to apples. When doing a final pull in 4th gear, we got:
RWHP: 382 RWTQ: 376
So if you compare the same-gear tunes, we picked up 43HP (+12.4%) and 54TQ (+17.6%), not to mention the response and firm shifts. We didnt touch the shifts yesterday because we're going to wait till I change the gears in a couple weeks to see how that feels first.
THe first graph is the comparison of the baseline and the final after tune. Not only are the peak numbers impressive, but look at the HUGE gap between runs between 4000 and 5500 RPM :salute:
The second shows a 4th gear comparison of 2 different runs, the second being after a few adjustments.
It's nice to see that a company as big as Steeda takes care of the local guy like me that has spent a lot of money there and plans on spending more (gears, LTs, brakes, etc). They will be using the info from this tune on all future autos, so anyone out there looking for a good CAI and tune, Im sure you wont be disappointed with them.
Enjoy the vids and graphs.
