I kept the AFRs in the high 10's because I was worried the AFR sensor may have been a little off too after seeing the dyno figures. I'm going to have to find me a more reliable dyno. The tune is nowhere near done, 15 psi on a 6266 is just to break it in lol

I only started this thread because I see too many people on here too caught up with dyno numbers and believing over rated dyno figures.

This is what you should be aiming for Sam!
One of the local R32 GTR's on his way to 1000HP....

Edit: stock block apparently as well....not sure how long it will last! Lol

He's running it at a little under 2 bars (29 psi)!! haha give me some time my friend, can't run before you walk

Something tells me he's also running a bigger turbo? A 6466/GT40 or something along these lines?

Fair enough, what wideband are you using btw ? you should look into the Innovate LC1, i ran that for YEARS...its also more accurate than the AEM.

I don't know how many times I have said dyno numbers are just a tuning tool. The operator on many systems can fudge numbers as well to make themselves look like better tuners. They don't mean crap other than a before and after and thats only if you really can trust the guy running the dyno.
