A&A is closest to me of all the major tuners. It's still 800 miles away.

keep us updated. Curious to see why your tuner could not get more HP with his tune.

I really don't think the tuner(first) was at fault here. I know he is an awesome tuner as I have seen him tune many of my friends vehicles.

Don't know. Im not mechanically inclined enough to answer that. Hence the questions I have asked of others. I suppose it's possible that adding the headers/exhaust resulted in nothing. I'm sure ARH feels as though I should have seen an improvement.

For sure if you added headers and did a dyno tune with HP Tuners, you should have seen definite positive improvement in the numbers. So I'm interesting in what was preventing that.

Yes. I sent you both tunes but you were unable to open one of them. We ultimately agreed that because Doug @ ECS would be sending a tune, it was not worth tuning again until after the goodies were installed.
