Tuning Tech is awesome and the car feels pretty d*mn good but I just feel RRE could have gotten more out of my car by looking at everyone elses numbers on the forums.

    On the plus side, my gas mileage didn't drop nearly as bad as I thought it was going to on e85! I legitimately think im getting about the same as I was on 91 before the tune, which is pretty sad to say lol.
    RRE could of got you higher number if you say so

    What are the numbers you got and the ones you see? A dyno number is just a relative thing. Can't really go wrong with either.

    I understand that, but you cant say you'd prefer a lower number then a higher number. In the end it is just a number as you said. The tune is great and feels real safe, Alfred did a great job. I was just hoping to see somewhere around 370-380 on e85 as that seems to be the general number but I only made it to 350 on e85, 315 on 91. Full bolt ons.

    Honestly, Dyno numbers are really just dick swinging online haha If you like the car and the power it made then I think that is more important. If you want big numbers, I hear go to Church Automotive Testing.

    350 for e85 on a dynojet is about right for boltons, (assuming you dont have cams). But if you want to test your curiosity, get a tune at RRE to see how it differ from Tuning Tech.

    14' Evo X GSR, 98' Civic Hatch
    Recently picked up a 14' GSR and had it tuned by Rick@RRE. I agree that dyno #'s are just that, #'s. As long as there were gains, thats all that should matter but that being said. I baselined @ 256hp and 274tq. After the tune 307hp and 326tq @24psi on 91. My only mods are a RRE 3port and a Cosy drop-in. The only #'s that I really pay attention to are the difference from the base and after the tune.

    Just my .02

    Honestly I would rather have a lower number than a higher number if that lower number is safer and has a more usable power band. I dunno maybe I am just weird like that...
