I talked to Jeff - HP numbers are as yet unknown on any flashed vehicle. Within the next month there will be dyno clinics with before and after numbers.

He is aware that I want my 4 port to have 300 to 350 hp. I don't expect to quite reach that with the flash but with the other plans that Ray and I have along with the AP there is optimism.

I understand now. Heck if it gets me 5 HP I'll most likely buy it.

As I said earlier, I'm suppose to do dyno testing tomorrow with MM. Just not sure exactly when tomorrow.
At that point I will be able to show some results on the Access Port on the NA 4 Port.

So Jeff if you read this call me, Pm me, send smoke signals.

Jeff speaks in words and thoughts that is hard for us mortals to understand but my guess is closer to 10 with no mods other than the m/s exhaust. Now if Ray were there he could sneak in some NOz.

Thanks for the optimistic outlook Phil. I'd be suprised if it had a 10 rwhp gain.

My car seems to still have issues so the AP dyno tuning session turned into WTF is wrong with Easy's car! I still have NO POWER above 5700 rpm. It drops like a rock.
Plus MM was on his way to see the Grim Reaper. He seems to have caught something when he was in Las Vegas. I pretty much think he has the flu. So we'll try this again some time in the future.

Maybe after all those engines being replaced it was the driver of the car and not the engine easy? LoL

Can't wait to see some REAL results

I am still alive, but barely.
I haven't been this sick in nearly a decade. Certainly not since I moved to Phoenix.

Yeah, there is something wrong with your car, but I am almost certain it is the CAT.

I've said that for a while now. Tried convincing the dealer and Mazda but you know how they are.
Catless mid pipe hear I come.

I have 150,000 mile warranty on emissions items. But the dealer and Mazda have tested it, according to their specs and it passes.
But there test is at a lower RPM I believe, not above 5000rpm.

If the man says so.. ok AP first.. then BHR Rad... that and atleast the Ap will be in a smaller box and easier to sneak past the GF heheheheheheh....
