Yes we can do logging and re-tune if needed. Also here are some dyno videos

Hey guys, I'm the proud owner of the TurboS that Alex and his crew just finished tuning. I have known Alex for 10 years and he has worked on several of my toys. I like to say that MaxRPM has always maintained the highest standard of workmanship and customer service. I was a bit nervous about tweaking my new car, but I spoke with my dealer (who knows Alex well and have excellent rapport). I was assured that my warranty was not in jeopardy and I trust Alex. With that being said, they have transformed my refined beast into a tarmac devouring monster! The car was already stupidly fast, now it's just ridiculous. The acceleration is so rapid, so linear and so smooth. Alex took my car on a Friday and delivered it to me Tuesday, I haven't shaken my adolescent grin all week. Thank you MaxRPM, you never disappoint

Todd - Thanks for the kind words... I think you need a oil change soon? We're kind of busy but if you drop it off on Monday I might be able to get back to you by the weekend... don't worry, I won't disconnect the speedo!! LOL

Sounding better and better! Can do logging and retune without removing unit from car? map switching? would we work with you using etunes?

Yes we can do log file without removing the unit. Map switching currently can only be done with the buttons on the outside of the box. (we are working on the switch on the fly option currently) e-tunes are currently not available on these but this is something we are looking into as an option.

The biggest thing is that wireless can only be done with data-logging as of now since the rate at which is required to transfer information, (downloading uploading, and live tuning) from the laptop to computer needs a direct connection without any loss of signal :-)

It is the latter.
The higher ethanol blends are not E85.

This looks impressive indeed. Just a quick question if you don't mind, how do you guys dyno the car? I was told the Turbo S can not be dynoed safely because of a new axle system implemented on the new models. I have several modifications on my car and I'm dying to dyno it

The kit we just tuned basically had a stage 2 (Fab-speed system, IPD Plenum and high flow filter).That basically is all you can do unless you do a custom CAI system. Also as for the Dyno procedure we have never heard that you cannot Dyno the Turbo S. It may be if you try doing it on 2WD Dyno's. Ours is an AWD Dyno and we always run all the newer vehicles in AWD mode because of the traction control and other variables that need to see all 4 wheels spinning at the same time.

so were the results you posted with all those mods? if not, what are the max gains with those? do any of the 997 turbo cai setups work with the 991 by chance? wouldn't mind building necessary hardware as long as there are no MAF codes or errors

Thank you for your insight. Will keep that in mind and all will try to dyno it now.
