Yes and no, I do get a great deal on the Comp stuff, but I also love the power they make. When comparing my DC2 to a couple of local guys with Precision 62's on their cars... I have a much more torque happy car (I made 450tq on ~22lbs, they don't even come close to those torque #'s til they're spinning 30-33psi).
The DC2 (one of my favorite cars/chassis ever BTW) is it a B series?
Is the torque based on the sizing of your turbo vs. theirs? Or are we talking turbos being equivalent size?
I am just asking for my own knowledge.
My wife has a turbo subaru forester which is pretty cool. It runs much higher boost, but it has a much smaller turbo, which makes sense.
Equivalent turbos, both cars are 62mm turbos. I was comparing a friend's plot on 36psi vs my 22psi pull, and I make 450tq @ 6200 rpm, he's only at like 330-350, he finally made over 400tq after 7k rpm. Obviously he makes more power after the fact (he made like 730whp @ 36psi) as I'm not spinning mine up to those boost levels.
Edit: I just seen, they have an oil less turbo setup? WTH man??? I bet that is sweet.
Question, do you do any other motors besides K series?
After my car was parked for 4 months, I got a daily driver. An 02 RS. I want to pick up a EJ2x engine and swap it in, make it a little mad max mobile. Rough around the edges.
So maybe in two years I'll be ready for that step...

That's them.
I work on & tune all kinds of stuff -- I just don't eTune the large majority of platforms I can tune. Still eyeballing getting 2 more pods so we can have an AWD pack.
Is it better or worse to tune during the winter... my initial reaction seems to think worse. But if you tune during winter you basically have your MAX boost condition so that you're never gunna be running lean.. but maybe there is more to it?
I ask because I feel like I won't get all my shit together until like the dead of winter.
question, what do you think about turning the threads on the WG shaft? I wonder if the spring, which is 6 psi is not holding the WG closed and that's why boost is falling off in the upper RPMs??

Makes very little difference, the ECU has comps for all that, and they can be adjusted. Worst case scenario to date... I had to tweak the compensations a couple percent or touch up the fuel map when moving from weather extremes (think Canada/Alaska season change).

Great to hear! Gettin the upgraded clutch assembly in the coming week, then installed soon after. In between clutch upgrade hopefully I can figure out the wiring for my Wideband to ECU... then finally the aftercooler and tune. So probs around November timing I can buy a tune from you and we can put some numbers on the board for SC + aftercooled CU2.

Alright, now that flashpro has been released for 11-14 TSX guys I expect everyone to contribute to this thread and get some really good info/ tuning guides going.
And WOW they have done added Traction control tab with an enormous amount of user input control. I think that only 09-10 TSX is applicable at the moment though
ANDD for those wondering... it looks like there were some changes made to the base Calibration as well. I compared 2009-2010 MT to 2011-2014 MT calibration. Here are the results.

Here it is guys, this is what is available for 2011-2014 TSX at the moment
thanks for all the screens/info Joe. I suspect this post was to get me thinking about getting Vit tuned and not relying on the LARGE number of base maps I can try
I suspect it's just 1 map provided for 5AT 11+ as well? I'm curious if I can run some of the 09-10 maps posted in this thread on my 13.
I'm not gunna put the time in to figure out the differences between the maps lol but you could download the software and go through it and see what the exact changes are and determine if an 09 tune from someone would be safe.
I asked DimeFeng to upload his calibration to Hondata.. he didn't do it. There is a repository within FP manager, and I would like everyone who is willing to upload calibrations to do it there. That way the calibrations aren't scattered around this thread, and are actually in a useful place that everyone can find and use.
