How the heck did Flat6 Motorsports lose 100rwhp with a Stage 1 tune from you guys?

So if I were to do a track tune that is more conservative, would there be any downside to also having downpipes on the car? I guess I’m just confused on what happens if I have downpipes without the stage 2 tune?
I did not know you guys were able to do a track tune like that. Maybe MEngineering will be the way to go once my GTS arrives!

Heat soak is the killer on power on these cars, especially on a dyno where air circulation and fans and limited. It's not uncommon to see IAT's on a dyno cell go from 30*C to 60*C if there is not enough cooling. That kind of heat will kick in some engine protection tables that bring power down. As your intake air temps get more hot, you become more prone to knock and other issues, so power is brought down.

An M-Tuner license is good for a single vehicle/VIN only. So if you get a new car you'd need to buy a new M-Tuner.
We optimize all of our calibrations to work with specific hardparts. It's a good idea to match your parts to the calibration. We can bring power and load down if you want it more conservative, that's no problem.
