Success! FVD tune is stupid fast.
Have had my TTS about 5 months now. Was very happy with how fast it was. Kept reading about how much faster a tune could make it. Couldn't believe that and tried it myself to find out.
Rhonda at FVD helped me out big time as I'm computer illiterate. The MyGENIUS and her help make my car go stupid fast!
Thanks Rhonda.

A tune is a tune. Both use " PV = nRT " to accomplish the same goals. I don't see how one is better than another. What would make one better than another is how easy it is to change things.

I did physics ages ago, but remember that the equations has upper and lower limits, and has variables which are interdependent

While all tunes affect the pressure and volume of gas, it's the effect on other parts of the system (like advancing timing) and how they accomplish that goal that differentiate some tunes from others. Also, there's a big difference between piggy-back tunes and tunes that actually change the lines of code in the ecu. In my opinion, I would rather have a tune that has the correct code written in the ecu than a piggy-back unit that takes the current values and then tricks the ecu into thinking they're something different so it adjusts that way. Just my opinion...

I'm not a technical person at all. But I can tell you after my 1st long drive before,this car GOES! Don't care how, but it feels great and it was good already.

As a Motec Person, I cannot believe one ECU or Program will be better than another. Especially when using the factory ECU which then means all the hardware resolution is the same. Its Not Magic, Voodoo or anything that gets reinvented. Its the same principals that can be put on any motor. Now with the 997.2 motor, you have an advantage of running slightly leaner because of the atomization, but again, no magic. Now eventhough, I run a Cobb, the results will be the same with a FVD. I can promise you that.

There are simply massive variations in tunes, from one extreme of using a laptop and/or Cobb and attempting to alter things whilst driving on the road and never getting out of 4th gear to the ultimate tune which is how manufacturers do it, spending days/weeks on a bespoke adapted engine dyno facility able to tune for 90% of road conditions followed by final fine tuning and testing on the road...
