Actually the tool is a good base start. Like yesterday when we first started tuning with base map we got 194ish whp. Then got 204 later. So it's an ok way to know that you are tuning in the right direction. And I have the WHP measured in second gear where I have full traction till redline .

Yeah those tools work for letting you know peak whp which helps but I don't think they give you any sort of graph do they? Regardless, when you are way down on power like it sounds like, your butt dyno will notice when things are finally right, lol. You shouldn't have full traction in second gear with that setup so there is still some more to figure out but at least you are headed in the right direction and Jamie will be able to help get an idea of which direction to head in.

Nice piping indeed, even though it's for a high port, but I made it work on the VE .

Slowly working on heat wrapping it all though .

Looks like you can, just gotta find the software and plug that would work: Mazda 6 Forums : Mazda 6 Forum / Mazda Atenza Forum - View Single Post - Beltronics Vector FX2

I'm around 190-210 whp today. I've tried a few different things and still stayed within the error margin. I didn't have a chance to do some mechanical checks today, had to run errands all afternoon.

if its a VE (VVL) Head it better be scaring you cause the .86 backend wont help yah pal. You wont know how the VE Turbo truly supposed to feel if you put on a log.


No worries if its a DET Head.

High 3s....low 4s if I'm lucky. With the log I'm sure that will not happen....

Don't be so sure.... It has happened, can happen and will happen if done right. It happened way back in 2003 that I know of and is still happening. The people that do it just don't post here anymore. Just make sure you have an ecu that you can tune.
