no no no no imo.... ok so.... can i ask why you want evolve to tune this??? why not just ask ess to do an all out power tune with your kit, your paying for a tune so?? why pay again somewhere else....???

Now.... be warned, its very easy to lean out the tune/advance the timing and get more power.... lean = heat.... heat = problems...., personally i think its much more difficult to get the all round tune, driveability, power and reliability.... how many ESs VT cars with the stock tune have failed over ALL these years??? afaik... none???

the AFR is 11.3-4ish, yes slightly conservative.... but Still in the meat of the range where we want to be..... Were really pushing alot of components by throwing 7-8Lbs + boost at things... still on stock fuel pumps, FPR.... Headline power is imo NOT the most important goal, its useable SAFE power.......

Evolve are fantastic people...... BUT imo.... they shouldnt be tuning other people s/c kits, not only that if you do, ESS will probably not even enter into a conversation with you afterwards if any issues arise/general support issues. Think long and hard about that.....
