Question: Before I go ahead and start tuning the car...
...is it possible that I already have a tune one the car??
I know that sounds odd but to the best of my knowledge there is no way to tell until we actually reflash the ECU. I have had my car dyno'd recently and my power and curve seems to be very very similar to others that have a tune already. EG: My dyno graph; Another members graph; Before I go throwing money at something I possibly already have, does anyone with a keen eye see anything there? Cheers, Craig |

The "curves" themselves should not look much different from car to car.
You can't compare graphs from different dynos and use that to come to this kind of conclusion.

Hey mate,
Thank you The previous/first owner did email me saying that he put your tune on the car but when he traded the car at the dealer they seemed to have flashed everything back to OEM. The consensus at the dyno was that it was outputting the right amount for a stock tune. If so, then a BPM should do wonders for her I'm just trying to find out now if it does have on or not, then go from there. C |

Also look for signs of a tune such as removed cold start routine, reduced rev limiter on startup, etc.. Keep in mind that stock cars can vary quite a bit in output depending on a number of reasons. I've seen differences upwards of 30hp. Enjoy the car!
