One of those JXXXE extreme kits with custom headers.
Out of pocket costs......about 6.3K

Bit dissapointed with those numbers with jtune extreme kit fitted. 133.4kw after spending well over $4000 plus fitting? Not that impressed. Do you have a base line when your car was stock on that dyno?

wow... i would expect more than 133kw with the Jtune EXTREME given I/H/E + ECU tune!

I remember Jtune saying that they didn't focus on peak power but instead focussed on gaining a fat torque curve.

it's hard to compare between dynos. 133kw is still quite high in terms of peak power.

but look at the bloody torque curve

definately!

compare that torque curve to mine or any other euro dyno... the jtune torque curve is very nice!

I drove one of the demo cars, and the sensation you get from the torque curve is interesting. You pull harder in the next gear at 5000rpm than you do in the previous gear at 7000rpm. So it makes you want to change gears (and enjoy doing so because of the added acceleration) and should also make the car quicker in the 1/4 mile.

thats it. dynos are good indicators but it all comes down to the 1/4 mile

let us know how it goes champ!

At first, I too concentrated on outright power but at the end of the day, going from my stock run of 103.6Kw to 143.4Kws was not a massive increase but having as much as 60Nm extra at the wheels makes so much of a difference when the car is pulling uphill.

hehehe all i originally wanted was highest possible max power... but when i did my build i realised having power from 600rpm to 6000rpm is much more important than from 6000-7400rpm...

Wow the accereration on that would be very nice Merlin with all that torque

Its a fantastic result with a solid performance curve on the torque. I'd love. Pity about the issues with Jtune Extreme or I would have upgraded to it. If they had this under control thered be heaps of customers....
