Awesome man glad your happy with the tune. That for sure was a low baseline. The car picked up a nice bit of power. Hows driving it before and after?

First off, I would like to thank you for making the trip and going with your gut to give us(DG Motor's) and Charlie(Kreionic) the chance for tuning your car and really waking it up!. I give the upmost respect to all my customer's and leave nothing questionable when it comes down to doing business. Any questions you have will be answered and as you know, I will go above and beyond to get the job done. Remember the Subaru that was on the dyno before you?!?

Second off, I would like to thank Charlie(Kreionic) once again for working his magic and helping us get this record breaking tune on our DynoDynamics basically stock like Evo X tuned. You are a great tuner/friend/partner and will soon become our permanent tuner as I am getting real busy with everything else going on. I have the upmost trust in you not only operating our dyno and software, but tuning to the best of your ability which has proven to be great, time and time again!

I hope you enjoy your car and even more enjoy the decision you made by making the trip to pay us a visit and getting the treatment you deserve the first time around! Have fun

Here is the dyno sheet!

Here we go guys. Going further and further with minimal mods. We had (redevo08)'s Basically stock Evo X on the dyno yesterday and the numbers were nothing short of amazing! I would like to thank (redevo08) for making the trip from Jersey!


car:

08 gsr

mods:
Intake Filter
Catback


Tuning Software:
EcuFlash
24psi 93 octane

Results:
285whp/305wtq

Car was tuned by DG Motors and Kreionic using ecu controlled boost.



285whp/305wtq

GAINS:

+125whp/95wtq @ 6,750rpm

+100whp/wtq @ 5,252rpm

+75whp/100wtq @ 4,200rpm

All tuning was done in 4th gear at 24psi/93octane.

This is the first car to make over 100whp from baseline with minimal mods on our dyno.


Here's a video my little brother put together while he was hanging out at the shop Yesterday.

Good gains. I can see why you were ready to sell the car. Must have been pretty slow and burning tons of fuel. Did you happen to catch the afr's on the baseline run? Probably off the chart...

air/fuel



As you can see, the baseline air/fuel dipped as low as 10.4! You could see and hear the car choking up!

Now It's a nice smooth 12.0 flat!

I'm very impressed by the gained....great job!

Just a quick question, can a stock Evo 9mr run 12 or 12.3 A/F with 98 0ctane fuel at an average ambient temperature of 29-32 degree celcius without the risk of knocking? I have simple mod like a drop in filter, cat back exhaust , hi-flow cat and currently running at a boost of 24psi. Everything else is standard. My current A/F is 11.2. Any help here will be deeply appreciated, Thks.

Without data logging, It would be impossible for me to give you an answer. Every car is different! Are you running 11.2 throughout or is that 11.2 at redline?

Nope, this car likes being right there. General rule of thumb is 11.5 on pump gas for a turbo car. That doesn't mean every car likes being at 11.5
