update post dyno

All I can say right now is Bad news. my initial feelings about the car were correct.

FVD is currently working with me to correct the situation. I will not post the results unless they refuse to 1. resolve the situation or 2. refund money.

hopefully, I will have new dyno results next week sometime.

What did they say exactly? Try the stock tune again? Did they offer to modify the profile on their tune?

Disappointing to say the least.
Thanks for saving me some money. I was going to buy that flash.

yes, Re-flashed with the stock tune file and re-gained HP and TQ. tuned file was dyno'd 3/5 and stock file dyno'd 3/10. same dyno, same gas used, etc.

Just wanted to be %100 percent sure because I was going off last summer's stock file dyno. The dyno' time is starting to equal the cost of the damn software.

I am sending the results to them tonight. dyno sheets and Videos. I don't know what there plan is. I hope they will continue to work with me as they have been very good so far. I don't want to throw them under the bus yet. They may have an answer. We will see.
