I built it myself. 3 tubes of expoxy putty, some 1/4" MDF for the sides, flat bar aluminum for the sliding piece. I'd say about $15.

I bought the wiring harness from Frog but I had to splice in another 5 feet to reach from the ECU to the sunglass holder.

That is P-I-M-P, pulling that down in front of passengers would impress anybody

Oh I almost forgot, I have to reroute the wire as it comes out of the VAFC. Notice in this pic, the hole where it originally came out. I ended up making a hole up top so you didn't see the wire. I need to fill and paint that hole, just never got around to it.

Sorry guys I've been very busy and I havn't had time to post the results.

Alright so here we go. First off let me tell you about the dyno it self before I get into the numbers. The numbers will seem lower than a normal dyno jet because this dyno duplicates real road weight experienced by the engine during normal driving conditions. The drums don't free spin like on the dyno jets.

More info on the dyno:
http://www.dynocomp.com/tuner.php <-----click

So anyway with that in mind...the temp was warm for being in the middle of the winter...70F and being in AZ it of course was dry as a bone. First pull was arround 200whp. After dozens of pulls and many tweeks to the AFC we were able to gain a total of 10whp across the board. With a max of 210whp. The only thing now is that I really can't compare these dyno results with the dyno jet results of the others on this board. But thats not very important to me. I'll post the pics of the printouts soon.

The car runs much smoother than before and was well worth the money.




Off topic: The shop were I got the TL-s tuned had a BMW X5 getting a supercharger installed.:wow:
