As long as the car is tuned well thats what matters, whatever dyno it may have been on.

Yeah I know i've spent way to much on this car. But I also know I haved helped pioneer the way to new parts. And the addiction of getting more out of this car just consumed me, especially with guys that said you'll never get 200hp. So if anything I'll be remembered as the cocky ass-hole who spent to much money but also helped get the performance end of things going.

That's strange because the local dynapack here reads way less than dynojets. However, all of these things are calibrated differently. The two dynojets here read drastically different too.

Also in my country, I am the only one who dared making this thing up SO----- or I would be remembered as the cocky ass-hole who spent too much money for nothing (like XBG said) or I will be remembered as the person who tried to do something different with success. |

I personally build my car for my own personal enjoyment. I don't think I'd want to be remembered as "the cocky asshole in the yaris" as you two put it. To each their own, I guess.

Unfortunately when you spend an ass-load of money and do things others can't do. You sometimes get the, "I'd of bought this kind of car" or "you could of built this with all the money you spent."
So unfortunately with guys like me that put it all out there for others to have cool things we sometimes catch the nay-sayers and haters who don't have a pot to piss in and live friday to friday. Belive me no body wants to be rembered as the ass-hole but sometimes people rock the boat and intise MF's like me who have the money to explore. XBG |

I think I'd be looking for a new tuner, unless this guy really can make a car shit gold bricks.

no no, i understand that somethings dont go as planned as a mechanic so i can only imagine the issues tuners go thru on trying to get the right tune and adjusting things accordingly. some things take longer then expected and dialing in things just right just takes time. also, its between holidays right now.. cut them a break.
