Capa "black Oak Edit"

[geea]

Hi Martin. This is starting to sound interesting. I'm aware that HPF are possibly going to be using the Flasher and was hoping you could tell me what sort of gains a car like mine could expect.

If I'm correct I would be able to increase the rev limits and adjust how hard the auto shifts. I'd also expect to be able to remove the speed limiter. Besides these things what should I expect from a tune perspective and what sort of gains would be realistic.

Geea.

MS700, the XCalibrator (flash box) is a device that holds the software. It is up to your tuner to change the factory settings so that each program matches your requirement. Should you want one of the programs changed at some stage that's possible too. You arent just locked in to the original tune parameters.

I know this has nothing to do with the SCT Advantage, but I am curious and hope Street tuner can give some kind of answer.

Also as people here know. I'm not a APS puppet like some.

Question is,

If the PCM edit can tune hopefully all stages or phases of modded T's why would APS still want to use the unichip with there so called Bossedit?

What benefits could there possibly be by running 2 sets of software on the same car, when one should do the job?

Geea, there are plenty of bonuses for modified cars like yours. The ability to be able to use full throttle for the entire length of the strip without the PCM constantly invoking reduction strategies will be worth it alone. Conservatively there should be 0.3 seconds in it across the quarter. Pulling the shifts up another couple of hundred rpm will also see the times drop.

As for the Macka question....dont ask me, I dont sell strap ons!

macka I dont sell strap ons 2!

but I had posted before my conversation with peter and his theory was to use the unichip mainly for the live tunnig and auxillary out puts to enhance any edit mods?

the only benefit I can see is for the rev head racers.

although I like the advantage software heaps and I do I am a little reserved when it comes to plug in tunning and if I were to ever sell the capa / advantage edit I would throw in dyno time to check mixtures etc before it left my shop period!

this is not to say capa etc have not done there job right but for every plug in chip ive ever seen less than 5% improved more than 5% saftly

my thought only and it do's seem good

I think you misunderstand Dynowog. Were you to be a dealer it would be a requirement that you spend time with each car on the dyno to check that it was perfect before it left. This is why we are using respected and trustworthy tuning shops as dealers.

Street Tuner - can we have approximate rwkw power levels for each of the stages of tune you mention in this thread that are available from your edit and the stock car components.
