Default FI Fiber Tunned Intake Results


Here's the final tune numbers, run 2 is prior to it being installed using a L92 intake.

This is prior to the tune.

Which color is which intake? Or is that all with the fiber tuned, just different runs?

Vinny is redesigning the intake and I will be installing the new version once it’s done. I'm sure I will see better results next time. Vinny has stuck by his product and worked it out with me and the other owners.

If you had done a little smoothing on the dyno, we might be able to understand what we are looking at. Perhaps two runs max on each page.

The final tune only has two runs on it and it is using 2 for smoothing.

I think everyone appreciates the information, but it seems every time someone posts results, it is done poorly.

1) Post up a graph that has RPM not speed

2) Clearly explain what exact result is, with which setup/intake/part etc so the information is able to be understood.

3) put it in the correct dyno section of this site.

Play nice guys. The guy was just trying to show the results.

So much as wrong section. Not really. This intake has been talked about in the Section so the results are relevant to members of this section.

No need to be hostile. Just some clearing up for idiots like me would be much appreciated

Guys, please cognicent of the fact that we aren't employees of the companies involved in building or selling this intake. We are average Joes doing you a favor by posting up our independent finds. We are using our time and money to give you information so that you don't waste yours. If you don't like the way it's done, feel free to do it yourselves.

Thanks for the info Beavis.

I for one would like to thank bevis and Carlos for saving me $2K and a headache. Excellent work guys!

Now for the intake, how can you release something for $2K and have NO testing on it. I'm disappointed that a company would come out gang busters on the forum touting their untested product. It took paying customers to find out the product was crap.

I think they did test it on a GTO but im not 100% sure. Dont worry, they are working really hard to make this intake better so lets give them a little time. Im just glad they are standing behind it and not leaving these guys out in the cold.
