I just got mine this last week, so I'm assuming I'd have the most recent flash right? 2005 with 13 miles on it was how I picked it up. Or should I go into the dealership and make sure?

this is quite a mystery
if the maf sensor was different you really think it would pull a 16whp increase? no way
this is bizarrre...but interesting....temps me to buy a canzoomer kit

I wish I would have logged the airflow, and taken a snapshot of the baro, the IAT etc. on this and a different car to see if any of the sensor readings were really different.
Renwar1's A/F was slightly leaner than the other cars in the 7-85K range...but not much
I figured out wat was wrong with my car......A beer to the first one that was there that figures it out :D Except Nemesis8...I already owe him one...he would get two.....just didn't get to go cause I was freaked out by my Dyno..........or lack of one :D

No takers on the beer :D
I think the God(s) were pissing on my parade for getting up at 4:30AM to go to the Dyno. Wasted $75...
but found out why my car had been running like crap.
In hindsight...it had been slow the last few weeks or more....now that I fixed the problem...It's like a different car again. I guess the gas wasn't the problem...may have been just the straw that broke the camels back though. Just got to wait for the parts to come in for the final fix.......
I'll give you a clue...It wasn't the plugs.....or coils, or CZ, ........
COME ON...I want some guesses????????

That was a pretty cool day for the community. I personally like the flaming red marshmellow cooker. Kinda looked like after burners of a F-14 tomcat when the flames came out. As for my car performing the 206 whp (corrected: 198), I personally think something went wrong in dyno-ing. But I'll take my elation with a grain salt and enjoy my little sunlight. OR! My car was dirty and I think that added to the hp performance. Instead of the type R sticker theory.
My car is bone stock, as other have said, with greddy strut bars (front and rear) with a Tein Type Flex Coilovers. So the suspension shouldn't matter too much.
Oh yeah! Besure to watchout for renegade Volvo S40's in the highway. DMP, Nemesis and I almost met ill fated sliver 8's curse.

P.S. Atleast we have something to strive towards: 206 whp by manipulating the Air/fuel ratio. Hopefully! :p

Cool videos! No speed limiter eh?
I'm curious as to what other guys with stock cars were getting (other than renwar1). I'm guessing lower than 180 that the guys with Canzoomer were getting. Right?

ding ding ding.........A Beer for you! My RT high flow cat was toast. The catalyst had compressed, and plugged the outlet like a cork....could hardly see out of it. No wonder...no air out= no air in=no power!
I'm surprised the car ran at all :D
