that's still a damn sensational result matey and you should be chuffed to bits with that! Can't wait to see more- I'm definately an advocate of the Flas Tuner- despite my frustration for the $1000 box just to access the damn computer......... clearly it IS not required, but hey that's clever marketing isn't it

Jim, its not tractive effort, im pretty sure its nm from memory, ill have to ask the tuner.
It was done on a dyno torque dyno, its one that my tuner and his uncle have made up themselves, and they plan to market and sell them in the not to distant future.
It has all corrections done via weather station, and is all setup according to world dyno standards, works real well.
Feels a totally different car,
afr's have been tuned to 12.4/5:1 @WOT, and have given it a good 6 degrees timing, economy is heaps better too, but the way it goes now, very happy, this is what it shouldve been like from the factory.
The flash tuner is a godsend for us AU drivers, even if it doesnt show a heap of kw increase, if its tuned right, you will definatly feel the difference.
The other tune that was done, only showed 2 rwkw difference from stock, i couldnt believe it, it was heaps better, much stronger, it was a different cat with the other tune, but now its already much faster and better with the new tune.
It isnt a cheap thing, but then when you compare it to LS1 edit, it isnt too much more $$, thats the way it goes, but with the edit, you are making sure your car is ready for anything you do to it too, and the way ford have the tunes in them, there is always an improvement.
