335- cheaper tuning

Are there any cheaper tuning methods out there for the 335, other than what's out there already?

Dynos and A/F ratio charts are helpful.

Search JuiceBox and Split Scond Turbo Tuner. That's as cheap as it gets. They aren't even tunes. Just resitors. Inenious anyways though.

Considering the fact that you have a $50,000 car, do you really wanna get all cheapy with something managing your engine?

AA, Procede aren't technically tunes either.

But yes OP, do the searches and all will be revealed.

You don't get much cheaper than $1400 for an extra 60+ more horsepower (PROcede v2). When your looking at tuners, you need to be concerned for your engine. Thats the key ingrediant when tweaking your engine.

Reliability! You don't want to harm your engine, you want to make sure that under all conditions, your engine will be safe. This takes knowledge and good software. Not to mention plenty of testing.

The word "cheap" should probably be changed to "inexpensive" since I'm sure that's what you meant.

I don't mean to be anal, but there is a big difference between the two words.

Well as long as the modification is within the ignition and fuel map adaptive range, it should all be good and safe. We all know the mechanical hard pieces of the engine can handle the additional stresses of more power.

This is why I am curious if there are dynos with the A/F ratios documented. That would be case-closed proof.

If it is safe, and provides a performance increase, why not?

To the OP, you can search for AA Xede and Vishnu Procede. They are the only two that I would consider since they actually use fuel/boost/timing maps to tune the engine. I don't believe in other tuning methods that have come about, but that is just my own opinion.
