You are right. That's how my AOS CAN looks like before I got the tune. Ever since the tune, I have been driving aggressive. Been doing LOTS of hard cornering turns and whenever I get a chance at the exit of a freeway that loops, I hit it. I too was in disbelief but I assumed its because of my more "aggressive" driving style. I will keep an eye on it and see how it goes.

I have put around 500 miles on my aos and barely have anything in there. not even enough to show up on the outside marker.

Are you saying you've been getting more significant oil blow-by since the tune?

Reason for oil in the AOS:

Quote:
"...it's because of my more aggressive driving style."

and also running 4 dyno pulls. The tune is not causing addt'l blow-by.

***Edit:***

Pleased to report my aos is empty.

So far only the vendors have actually done before dyno's to show the delta thus speculation is running rampant lol. In this case, yeah, something was definitely wrong. But a before dyno would have also proven that :P

I agree, dyno numbers would be low from oil ingestion with or without the tune.

Yeah, don't think your AOS filling up with that much oil is normal..

I've been driving harder and more spirited. I don't blame the tune or the AOS. All these factors are from me driving and enjoying my car. My AOS can has little to nothing in it at the moment. Very glad to see that

It may be that the computer is still screwed up from the 87 octane even though you put 100 later and it's been a while.

did you use organic canola oil in the gas tank or that GMO mixture?
Organic is good for ~310whp...gmo canola oil high 200s
