Well I finally got my custom tune done..... as well as a tranny rebuild. I am running a Trilogy with a 3.2" upper and a +2lb lower with a SCT 2600 MAF and JLT CAI. The Final numbers were 357rwHP and about 480 torque :burn:! I thought the HP should be up there higher but I know every dyno can measure differently too...

BUT my gas tank was pretty low when I took it in (I know it should be filled up for tunning but I didn't know they were going to keep it right away) and after I filled up with fuel the engine light came on saying its running too rich. So I have to take it back in. I know these cars can be a bit fuel starved at low fuel levels but they said its probably an O2 sensor :dunno: ... but anyway it's awesome! Here is my current dyno chart. the dashed lines are the before lines.

Nice! How many miles on the car/blower?

Just over 60K on the car and probably less then 500mi since the blower

He did a "safe" tune. He didn't do a 2 to 6k pull, tuned it rich and pulled spark in the upper end. With that torque, you should be in the 470hp range, but, safe is good! :)

Just curious if a trip to Michigan from Louisville would be worth the expense.
What do they charge for the service, and what sort of results could be reasonably expected on a normally-aspirated 03 MM with 110K on the clock?

Why not consider Mo's in Atlanta instead; might be closer.

If you're n/a with no other mods, figure a tune will get you to maybe 260-270 rwhp.

We'd be happy to help out with a dyno tune or you may be interested in one of our mail order tunes.

Let me know if we can help in any way.

Safe is very good but I wonder if having low fuel at the time made it a bit.... too safe, at least when I normally have a full tank. When I take it back in I'm going to see if he thinks we could squeeze a bit more out of her.

I live near Appleton now but still in that area ;)

The tune is every thing. What you have is a piece of crap for a tune. Spend a few bucks in proportion to what your S/C costs and get a real tune.
