wild4d Member 23 Member For: 19y 2m 27d Posted 05/10/05 07:32 AM Share Posted 05/10/05 07:32 AM I got the capa tuner and I am running the 10psi program and can definetly notice a difference, but I was wondering if anybody has tested it on a dyno to see exactly how much more power you get. At Eastern Creek it didn't seem to make that much difference. Everything else on the car is standard so far. cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I havent heard of many good results just using the standard edit tunes, although the 8psi tune is supposed to be pretty tame and should be ok fot 220 ish atw's.

Each one is different as the tolerances in each engine vary by up to 20rwkw,Do a search on the forum and spend some time understanding the benefits of it and what is best for you.

I'm on my second XR turbo engine and the first definately had more punch than normal!! It was described as a freak.......so as JB said actual power increase is likely to depend on your particular engine......I wonder if anyone has done before and after dyno runs of standard capa tunes and worked out gains as a percent!!!! Im probably stretching this one!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
