J-K-Tuning
Finally got around to taking a run up to JK Tuning in Carlisle, to have the tune on my 91 SER checked out.
A little history: Car has 260k on the motor. All the normal bolt-ons. No real problems, other than my mileage had dropped off a bit and I suspected the car was running rich in some areas.
John, put a daughter board in an extra stock ECU I had, but got a base line on the car, before re-mapping it. It was in fact rich in parts, but after 4-5 dyno pulls, he cleaned it up nice.
Really wasn't expecting him to find anymore power, but in fact, when he was finished, he had me making more power right off of throttle all the way up to 7000RPMs, where I had an extra 10 ponies.
Best of all....on my highway trip up to his place, I averaged 30mpg. On the way back home 35+mpg.
The guy knows these cars well, and I recommend him highly. Thanks again JK Tuning for a pro tune

Thanks for the kind words Ed. They are greatly appreciated.

Your car was very nice to tune as it was a VERY well maintained B13. They are rarity to come through here, so it was very nice to see the change of pace!

Here are your dyno sheets, just for reference. The car did pretty well considering the limited modifications and the mileage on the motor!

Blue = Tune
Red = JWT Base

very nice,

Love all the new tuning software and stuff coming out. If I was still on a basic setup I would have gone with his realtime stuff and software.

For sure. Great job JK
