- Eurocharged V1 Tune for Vantage V8 -

UPDATE: Newer V2 Tune has bee released....

https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...ml#post4035386



V1 Tune Overall specs:

The long wait is FINALLY over .... You have no idea how long & intense of a project this was but after months of hard work I have finally be able to get my car custom dyno tuned by a local tuner in town.

Peak gain: 31.4 HP @ REAR WHEELS aka 39.25HP @ crank (yes you read that correctly, view dyno in writeup) ...
Benefits: Tuned directly through OBD2 port in minutes!
Gas Mileage: TBD, but it should improve drastically
Price: please view writeup as posting prices on forum is apparently not allowed

The review is long and comprehensive and covers a lot of areas so I won't ruin it, its an absolute must read (you won't believe the results)

(copy & paste into browser)

If you have further questions feel free to contact Jerry @ eurocharged

Nicely done! It's great that they're able to tune it through the OBD port. Bumping up the rev limiter is a nice touch. Were they able to improve throttle response for a sportier feel?

Thanks for the write-up and being the 'guinea pig' for all of us! I feel especially lucky to live in Houston and benefit first hand from your trials.

thumbs up!

were there any concerns of the tune being too aggressive or revving too high! i know this can be debated forever but what were the tuner's thoughts?

and i just want to throw it out there, us houston guys need to get together!

I don't think there's a speed limiter in the vantage, I have done 170+ MPH and still pulling slowly.
