Tonino, you will most likely have to find another local dyno to test an automatic car on. The dynapack dyno & automatic transmissions do NOT work well together (the owner of the dyno, Morgan, knows this from experience) If you are going to go thru with the auto BMW tune you might want to try albany speed shop - I hate to turn business away from Synapse but when it comes to an automatic, it will have to be done. If you like call morgan tomorrow & ask, he may be able to do it but the car may not run well on the dyno & you may not be able to get it to stay in gear. fyi there was no sign of clutch slippage on Dave’s car either at Synapse (outside) or inside on the dyno. If the car was suffering from a slipping clutch it would have shown on the dyno - which it did not. about the dyno @ synapse. you can expect 16-19% drivetrain loss from Flywheel #'s to the numbers at the wheels(hub). -stock fwd 2006 k20z3 honda civic si made 167/137 (rated 200hp) -stock rwd 2001 F20c honda s2000 made 191/134 (rated 240hp) -stock rwd 2010 BMW 330i (twin turbo) made 250/287 (rated 302hp) ---

I was just trying to say that you (Tonino & Rob) mentioned tuning an automatic 540i & wanted you to know it would be difficult to dyno it. If Dave was keeping the car, I could see him wanting to get the car making a bit more power. I am sure Morgan could squeeze the car back in tomorrow or tuesday, but that’s not the case (so it seems). I think its good that you are willing to fly in & support your software. ---

LOL, im starting to not like you… Like at all… I never said anything negative about your fucking god damn business damn it. Again, even AFTER the bullshit tune motherfucker. Im not making a stink about anything, I did exactly what the fucking Autohaus manager did with the bmw 335 that they did an f1 tune to, the only difference was, my tune results were NEGATIVE! My 540i ran and drove flawlessly and still does. Do you see me going crazy in order to get a refund? lol, I think I mentioned a refund once in this entire thread after at least 4 members suggested I request one and never again after that. ---
