The long awaited dyno runs for the remap done by Gintani. I want to thank Jesse @ Gintani (www.gintanit.com) who was patient with me doing this test. Also, Nick @ www.jlevisw.com who hooked me up with the price on the ECU remap. I just want to let everyone know that Gintani is the makers of this remap and Jlevi is the retailer. We took out the ECU and put it back to stock and we got 243.8 whp and about 245 ft. lbs.

After Jesse remapped the ECU we got 257.9 whp and about 265 ft. lbs. I couldn't believe how much power a remap can actually do. I first was very sceptical about spending money where I can't see what's giving me HP or Torque, but Jesse/Nick assured me that everything will be okay.

The car is now more torquey and I can definately tell the difference in power. The acceleration and smoothness is ALL there.

If you guys are local in So. Cal or even central cali you can actually setup an appointment with Jesse to go there and get it installed. You first need to talk to Nick @ Jlevi to purcase it remap.

Please remember these number are REAL number from a Dyno Dynamics dynometer. The first stock runs was from a dynojet dyno for a base run...now you have BOTH. The biggest thing I wanted to see if it made power and it did. It made 14.1 whp and about 20 ft. lbs. When you talk to Nick or Jesse tell them that I sent you and they'll hook you guys/gals up! Let me know what everyone thinks!


Stock/Remap w/ Dyno Dynamics Dynometer
Made good power all RPM bands


STOCK w/ Dynojet (the curve kind of sucks on this one)

great gains man. thanks for showing us last night. makes me wonder how much gain i got out of mine, but for sure im saving gas driving conservatively until i meet up with you guys and/or go to a meet

Did you gain 14 WHP with the remap ?
Wow, good result!

Yup...I gained 14, but the TORQUE is off the charts...LOVE IT...Thank you!!!

r1racer,

AWESOME Numbers! I am looking into following the same upgrade path as you. My question is, your stock numbers were on a stock car correct? No K&N, exhaust or charcoal filter removed? Your dyno numbers after the re-flash, were the exhaust, and K&N on the car? I am just trying to see if the 14hp gain was stand alone or if it was part of the exhaust and K&N modifications as well.

This was on a STOCK car not even the charcoal filter was removed...I mean BONE stock.

The 14whp gain was from JUST the ECU remap and nothing else. The 20 ft. lbs torque was very impressive. I wanted to see exactly what kind of power just the remap made. As mentioned above I didn't want to pay for something that I don't know exactly how much I was making. Both Jessie and Nick assured me that if I didn't like the power that I saw on the dyno that they would refund the amount paid. Well as you can see I am enjoying this new remap.

68 more HP to until you can reach the Rated HP of 325.

Shoot 325rwhp will put him at over 400 crank hp. Anyway, I'm sure you read r1racer's dyno chart incorrectly; 257 is to the rear wheel.

[EuroCarFan]

That's great to see dyno proven gains and a good number too!

But I'm wondering why the numbers are still so low? Even if you use a DT loss of 20%, you're still shy of the factory claimed 325 crank hp. I know Dyno Dynamics are more conservative dynos but it's weird to see it go below the factory crank numbers.

That is why I posted two dyno's....the first is with dyno dynamics and the second is with dynojet. The Dynojet numbers are with STOCK EVERYTHING too. Yes the numbers read low, but I wanted to see how much the ECU remap actually gained.

Yes. I was saying he's 68 away from having the rated at the wheels. 68rwhp+257rwhp=325rwhp. I read it correctly. 400 crank should be close to get too with full exhaust and CAI
