I would recommend a custom dyno tune for any modification above a turbo back exhaust system. A custom tune should give you a few more kW's and further improved driveability in some case, but an extra 10kW is a freak event.
Yes this vehicle either had a stock exhaust or maybe a rear muffler change only. Total power 178kW ATW! Made more than 30kW extra in power through the midrange.
thats insane from just a tune. is this because it was a custom dyno tune? would i be expecting 178kW ATW with a pre-loaded remap on standard exhaust? i'm thinking of ordering one from you guys in the next 4-5 months. i live in sydney so i'll be ordering a plug and play with pre-loaded maps without dyno time. however i would like to dyno it after to see if the power were similar to 178kW.
@DrewII This vehicle was custom dyno tuned here at ChipTorque and perhaps this car was a bit of a freak. Other examples of ChipTorque's plug-in Ezy-FLASH Pro pre-loaded with tunes have made around 164kW ATW. So you could at least expect that with a power run on a dyno local to you. Custom tunes will normally make more power as we can tailor the tune for the vehicle.

sounds like it has stock exhaust. how much power did this make with a tune?
