I never trust any of these so called number these companies advertise. They tune cars on their dynos, and who knows what kind of corrections they are using, what elevation or weather the tune took place in. Let alone which octane they are using (EC or WC). What you dyoned at allaspect will differ from what you dyno at another shop. There are so many variables that go into tuning and WHP#'s. Its more about the tune itself than the number IMO. I want my car to run perfect rather than worrying about peak #'s. I wish there was an actual standalone for our cars. Like an AEM. I miss tuning the AEM on my last car.

true...but the thing is he has a delta to compare since he was able to pull a baseline run. his delta isn't adding up to what Cobb advertises.

but i would also research and compare to what other folks running the same map have seen...Cobb's is probably best-case scenario as you would expect for advertising purposes.

I haven't done any data logging since I installed my cobb (MAYBE 3k miles ago). When I did, everything looked great. It seems as though others are getting in the neighborhood or 45whp/75wtq. These flashes are a lot easier to work with than the Hydra EMS I was running last.

most people just take a screenshot of their graph and host it using photobucket or something...

what are you trying to do?
