The power of the 5th gen LGT
Posted: Tue Oct 15, 2013 6:57 amHey everyone,
I came across this forum from a member of legacygt.com.
Quick background. I'm a tuner from Salt lake City, Utah and own a 2010 LGT. I'm using ECUflash for flashing and map revisions, along with RomRaider for logging. My car is completely stock, aside from my custom tune. Tune is set to about 17psi, tapering hard due to my altitude (about 1,370 meters) and fuel available (91 octane; equivalent to 95 RON). After a lot of fine tuning my AVCS (intake and exhaust) I'm very happy with the results. Attached is a Virtual Dyno run (3rd gear, flat road, about 20 degrees Celsius). Although this is not from a rolling dyno, I've found the numbers to be very similar to our local dynapak dyno, when done properly.
Anyway, here is the end result (changed from WHP and WTQ to kW and Nm). Again, this is to the wheels
I put my car's stock baseline run as a reference as well. Both done on the same road and similar temperature. I didn't get as wide of an pull (RPM range) with my custom map, but the gains are there!
