aw man..... 204whp and "245 bhp"... you got me excited
i am interested that you did a tune yourself tho... how did you do this?
Apologies in getting people exited...lol! Well, not going too deep into details of tune, flashing, & sleeping on DME codes.
A 40 "Wheel" Hp on a 4th gear run on Dynojet SAE correction (more power for Dynojet STD correction, but not my thing... lower the better wHP correction I like to use..so no hype), was achieved by remapping the car on safe & reliable 1.33 bars tappering to 1.1 bar on the hairdryer R56 turbo. Any more reliable power I would suggest IMHO a colder spark plug, CAMS, possible head stud kit, bigger turbo, etc etc..
I still find it interesting. What tools did you use to tune your car? If you don't mind me asking
Used an expensive Pro flashing tool & some hours of coding maps. Everything was done at Precision Auto Werks in house dyno 7254 NW 25th Street

buuuuut, after looking through old posts, I know who you are!

i don't think so he said 174hp N14B16 up to with JCW exhaust intercooler and tune... so he's probably running an 07-09 MCS with the JCW exhaust, intercooler and tune (obviously one of the best ways to get power on our cars, the big 3 exhaust ic tune the gods of tuning do exists :P
Well, just update the MCS with colder plugs, new Precision Autowerk CNC adapter oil cooler kit, VVt remap on stock OEM Stg1 Turbo. Gain where impressive for circuit track race. 221.17wHP / 210.33 ftlb SAE Dynojet (227.32wHP / 216.18 ftlb) STD Dynojet) + 7000rpm Redline. The stealth setup gives great top end powerband.
We are still on the works for a bigger stainless turbo.

Wow pretty sick numbers! I wonder why your tune is relatively low on TQ compared to rmw's tunes who has like 30 more TQ than HP everytime

I'm thinking a lot has to do with how he tuned the vanos...
The horsepower curve after 4.5k is really strong...and the torque curve is pretty damn flat from 2k-6k. Probably feels a lot like an R53...in a good way
