Dyno tuner

jdm91t · 11-07-2007, 11:46 PM

So I just put my AEM EMS on my 91 turbo and I am looking for a good shop to tune it. I am leaning heavily toward Balanced performance but I wanted to see what other options there are. I'm in the Lawrenceville area so Balanced is real close. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks

Balanced has always been good to me. They've also got Ed Senf. He's one of the most respected EFI tuning gurus in the southeast.

That's where I ended up going, I have always heard good things and they have done a great job so far. Too bad I somehow ended up with a 10.5 bar map sensor instead of a 3.5!

Thanks

10.5 bar? Dern, what application uses that? Turbo Diesels with really high compression?

Ya I was guessing it was for a Semi, haha.

Did it ever get tuned?

yeah the tuning went great it made 360hp on their dynojet at 20psi. Torque isn't has high as I wanted but I am thinking about an intake manifold so maybe that will help. I had it dynoed again on a dynapak because there was a boost control problem when I got it tuned and it made 352 at 18psi and 289 torque. I was hoping the lazy boost control solenoid would fix the low torque but it didn't. I attached the graph from the dynapak, its still fast as is and 1st gear is completely unusable as soon as boost kicks in. Balanced did a great job though, very professional and knowledgeable and Ed is very good.
