07-08 350z Haltech PnP harness


Thanks Hal for taking the time to make this harness. Looking forward to tuning this car with this new Haltech PnP harness. if any one is wanting to get one of these for their 350Z contact us since this is a special order harness.

'05 Subaru Baja A/T tune




Had to go into the ECU and reflash it with Romraider due to the TGV delete CEL coming on because of this mod. Once that was taken care of the fine tuning was done using UTEC by Jay.

Off wastegate and 18psi tuning was administered.

EG Bseries turbo tuning





We dont tend to tune turbo cars on cromepro, but made a exception with our friend Red since he was only wanting low boost tune.
Had to change the ebay spring he had in the wastegate to a Tial small blue 8psi spring. With the Inlinepro manifold the boost crept to 10psi and we left it at that and adjusted the maps and came to a level of 211whp at that boost level on a stock Bseries engine.

'06 350z SC 347whp/318wtq




2006 350z, A/T, ATI Procharger kit @ 9psi, TurboXS UTEC, Kinetix intake manifold, 600cc injectors, 19"wheels.

This car visited the dyno facility 3x, the last 2x had the same issue and we could not pin point it. We recommended the vehicle to be sent to the local Nissan dealership tech we are glad we know. The master tech there (Darry) found the issue and it was a bad ECU and it did not send the signal to one of the coils in the driver's side bank.
So basically on the second time we were tuning we had to stop cause we knew something was wrong and the power was poor.

Now we tuned it with everything running the way it is supposed to be from the OEM side and we managed to get some good results.
Here is the video of the runs. This first one was when it was still running a bit rich up top.

Kenner shop, Haltech tuning





Had the pleasure of tuning a Vortech kit, installed by the client of the 350z.
2003 350z, 600cc injectors, Haltech, exhaust and 20" wheels. Z34 was tuned to 9.5psi, client did a good job with the daily driving aspect of the map. Just had to dial it in just right and make some adjustments to the timing and transient map. Special thanks goes to Michael for trusting us with his HellaFlush 350z. Lastly shout out to Jonathan who helped me verify the setting we made on the dyno as he drove the 350z on the mean streets of Kenner.

'10 Genesis 3.8




Got a chance to test the new 3.8L Genesis on the rollers today. All that was done to the car was fitted with some new tires and a intake system. The rest was stock.

Ambient conditions in the shop were pretty harsh:
95.7F, 55% humidity with 29.97 Baro

All pulls were done in 4th gear except the second one which was requested to be done in 5th gear to see the difference.

Video will be up soon on youtube.

Polaris RZR





Had a chance to tune this ATV the other day. All it had was a snorkel system and a furl controller.
The RZR came in sputtering and misfiring at idle and low rpms. Adjusted the fueling on it and was able to get some clean revs and made some decent power on the rollers.
Ended up with 39whp and I was told that at the crank these ATV from the factory sport 42hp.
So not a bad little gain.
Here are some pictures from the day and I also have some video that will be uploading to my youtube page.

June 5th Dyno Day

AWD Dyno day - Saturday June 5th in the Port Allen shop.
805 Court St. Port Allen, LA 70767

We are wanting to get a AWD dyno day going before the brutal power robbing hot days of summer arrive.

Maximum of 14 cars on the day, please call the number on the flier to reserve your spot on the rollers.

1979 Porsche 933 Turbo











Had a chance to test this fine specimen last night at the Kenner facility.
1979 Porsche Turbo 3.3L flat 6, client wanted to see what were his AFRs and if they coincided wit the PLX wideband he had installed in the cockpit.
Mixture was a little on rich side, but at the end it made some safe power. There is a little more room according to the reading that we can find more power just based on fuel mixture settings.
Over all a nice night and the client was pleased with all that he saw.

2008 STI





On this saturday we got a chance to meet a very nice and knowledgeable tuner from the east coast.
The tuner's name is Jorge and he comes from P&L in Chicago. Had a client from Metairie come in wanting to have this tuner sort his car out on that day so we provided the dyno facility.
The car was doing well, but ran into some bugs that prevented Jorge from completing the tune at the desired PSI that was intended to be tuned at.
I would like to thank Jorge for all his nice tips and pointers and hope to see him in the near future.

2004 STI Cobb AP tune














































Got a 2004 STI on the rollers to check a a cob stage 2 map that a friend of the client sent him.
Made a few pulls, the car was a little rich at the high rpms on the stage2 map. So I adjusted a bit. Unfortunately the stock clutch for some reason started to slip on 4th gear at around 4k rpms so we really could not see what the car would do with a little more boost and a bit of timing. In any case made some decent gains from what he came in and here are the pics from the tune that day.
Came in making 253awhp, left making 268awhp/280wtq @ 17psi tapering to 15psi

GorillaRE S2000 Turbo

Finally got around to tuning this vehicle since it was in the shop for a while getting some custom items installed.

Made some nice power to start off the tuning process. Left it at the WG spring pressure for now so the client can get a little used to the new found power.

System included a PF Fab Manifold & ice piping, custom GorillaRE DP, MP custom air induction box with under tray scoop and exhaust. Gt3076 with Tial exhaust housing, ID 1000cc and Hondata Kpro.

Tuning was done in collaboration with GorillaRE.
