[QUOTE="Badgertits, post: 1378117, member: 31322"] I mean the tune isn’t from them, they’ll just sell you the device & “ORA” branded version of a gearhead tune - my guess is they’re selling all the hard parts together as a package deal & there’s some Savings to be had there. Not sure why you’d expect a general off road parts/mods sales guy to be a compete expert on turbo engine tuning? He worked w/ gearhead to come up w/ what they feel is a very good “big power” package @ an affordable price that still keeps reliability & longevity as a priority. That’s pretty much how I took it... The dyno #s don’t really mean that much to me the before/after delta, the linearity of the power curve, the repeatability, the low & mid range tq etc matter much more to me. Different dyno brands, different weather/altitude, fuel, how they’re inflating or deflating readings while trying to make A/F adjustments (like jacking up the forced Fede fan air or likewise starving it & heatsoaking) etc can produce wildly different results for the same car. My vette dynos in the 420-432 range on the mustang dyno my builder uses in house, which he has routinely calibrated & is known to be a “conservative” dyno, yet I randomly went to dyno days @ 2 other places running dynojet on 2 separate occasions but in warmer weather & lowest was 444 highest 451 so go figure FWIW I am planning on getting a gearhead tune, don’t think I’ll be getting a bunch of supporting mods or package but speaking to gearhead directly felt they were very knowledgeable & wanted to keep things conservative & “idiot proof” more for a long term DD that you want to get a little more outta [/QUOTE]
