Various options around - Nextmod/APH, DaSilva, Dyna Motorsports . I only have experience with APH and it is always positive.

Thanks !!! APH is close by....
Let us know the results. I am really curious.

Just finishing up my eTune. I dont expect crazy gains but the car feels , faster, smoother RPM's ......

Ok now i am confused .... Dyno results ...i copied and pasted a past post to compare...
My Dyno results at APH on Dynopak = 127.9 WHP ( or something was not set properly)
Stock 2.0L IS 148hp AND 118WHP on a Dynojet (i assume they used a DynoJet )
If the comparison is same for non turbo , 29hp from Pak to Jet (results below were for Mazdaspeed3)
My Dynopak 128WHP equals Dyno Jet 157whp and using 20% hp loss between engine and crank
then my new DynoJet HP = 196.5 HP.......I would say for sure 185hP ...Now i need to do a dynojet to confirm math.
But i'm still confused but i dont care ... with all the mods and the OVTune the car pulls fast and nice smooth revs
and at 3500-5500 rpm is it really pulls nice ... Exhaust note has also changed ...it just sounds nice and purrrr's
and then screams over 4000 to redline. I love it, and my son says it sounds like a racecar now ( a slow racecar...lol)



Now on to the comparison:

"Here is how the various dyno manufactures relate to one another. This is just a comparison of numbers output assuming the same vehicle on the dyno.

The industry leader in number output by far is Dynojet. Their marketing in the mid-90's specifically used the larger output numbers as a selling item.

Next is the Mustang, generally about 7% less than Dynojet numbers.

Superflow is about 3% less than Mustang.

Dyna-Pak and Dyno Dynamics are about 3% less than Superflow.

Ok lets make this point again to make sure it's clear. The SAME CAR on the DIFFERENT DYNOS. So our test vehicle output on the various dynos are as follows:"

Dyna-Pak/Dyno Dynamics 200hp
Superflow 206hp
Mustang 214hp
Dynojet 226hp



Don't you mean....

Dynojet 226
Mustang 210
Superflow 203
Dyna-Pak 197

Yeah I'm a math geek, so what.
