We are home. The tune was awesome! I will give my best evaluation when I next take KERMEE on the track next, but I had a few brief (traffic permitting) glimpses of what it can do -- I hit hard acceleration heading out of the rest stop, and had to back off to merge -- we were hitting 95 at the end of the ramp -- Wow. Not long after that I had a CEL light, reached over and hit the Scanguage -- code was 0420 -- deleted the code and CEL went out, and hasn't reappeared.

Fritz -- thanks for setting this up -- I hope everyone's grin is a wide as mine!

Red Fury is anxious to get a great tune- see you Sunday Morning, hope someone can swap out my injectors for me before the 9am Sunday tune

I can assist but don't know how to do that ... Phil

Also, I can't find any race gas, unleaded ... so I will just use 93 or 94 if i find it

Glad you had success Paul, keep motorin bud !!!

 

Had a full JCW R56 pull 222hp and 250 torque.

 

Aaron - can you be there at 8:30 to do the injectors?

 

More details to come, but I pulled 223 hp / 200 lb ft for a final numbers. My base pull was about 200 hp and about 190 ft lb. The car really PULLS well now

Thanks to Fritz for organizing and Jan for the tune!! And thanks to the guy with the grey MINI (sorry, I forgot your name) for installing my new plugs! Had a great time talking with everyone that was hanging out. I'll try to post a graph soon.

 

Thank you Jan and all who helped out, I got an extended awesome tune and solved all my high heat/ lean issues I have had for a year or two. I cannot stress enough how good a job Jan does, can you say dedication ?!! YES

Thanks Aaron, Uncle and Fritz for your help and the help in swapping out my injectors, I needed the 450 cc ones bad !!! Nice meeting the rest of you guys too.

I now feel confident for more extended track day use, a big relief !!!

Car pulled a 237 or a 239 and we detuned it a bit for safety and ended up with a 233hp at the hub, 2005 MCS modified

Pulled all the way past 7200 rpm !!! Strong and the smoothness and mpg are up too

Take care,

Phil

Awesome job and the Dyno shop and owner was also a great help, patient man !!!

 

Glad we could put smiles on everyones face
Thanks again for everyone who helped out and the great service of everyone at Autolab
Thanks everyone!!!

Going into the dyno!




On the rollers. Baseline was about 200 whp / 190 lbs tq.



Jan doing his magic! Final numbers were 223 whp/ 200 lbs tq!



Thanks Jan!! A pleasure to work with and watch, truly a master!

 

Glad to help out anytime.

 

What a great weekend! Glad to hear that everyone left with faster, stronger cars and big smiles on your faces. Biggest thanks to Jan for his magic, and to Billy and his AutoLab team for working the dyno and sharing the shop with us! Special thanks to Aaron and Larry for performing car triage throughout the weekend. Hope all the out of towners got home safely and made it without any run ins with the law.
Look forward to seeing many of you out on the roads.

Fritz

 

Thanks Fritz for putting this all together. Everyone was great. I'm sorry we had to dyno and run but fortunately for us, Brian let us take his spot (which though it made a few cars run late, it allowed us to get some fudge-ups fixed which would have never happened if our original appt. at 6pm was kept)

By getting us in early, we managed to get home by midnight.

Everyone was helpful, friendly and I really would have liked to hang out.

Thanks again to everyone, hopefully we'll see ya'll soon.

Yep! Thanks to all for setting this up. I was very pleased. I had 189 base and 201 after the tune. I was very happy considering it's a R53 with basic mods. The main thing is, the car is a LOT smoother now. Now to start getting more mods.....

 

Honestly, we had some downtime and waited for our last person to show up that day.

 

Thanks to Jan for coming all the way to the East for us! Best weekend I have had all year and my car is the way it should be finally!
