Time bring hope again to this thread, dropped my car off to d3 performance for a new turbo and cooling upgrade. Time to finally have some power, how much power? Not a clue, have to wait 2 weeks ish to see.

Im rooting for ya. I was about to pull the trigger on the GotTuned hybrid turbo, but want to see dyno numbers first to see if its even worth it. not looking for crazy numbers but Ive squeezed every last bit out of the stock turbo and its performance, especially in the high rpms, is downright pathetic

I'm curious as well. I have the hybrid turbo from tti motorsports with a custom tune and saw great improvements. Curious to see what kind of numbers do can pull out.

Did you manage to dyno your car by the way?

Is200tnc

I havent. Shops around here have been closed. It performs really well. Raced a buddys 2020 nx350 last night. Dusted him bad. Raced him before the turbo and he got me. So noticeable change.

How was the process for TTi's custom tune? I have their stage 1 license but am currently running a custom OVTune. I paid for OV's VFTuner and got it activated, in preparation for a hybrid turbo purchase, but the local tuner who was supposed to work on my file unfortunately passed away.

All that said, TTi seems to be my only option for the GotTuned hybrid turbo. I also have a catted downpipe for the NX inbound. Anyone know if I'll need a new tune for that, given the fact that I'm already running a custom one?

Is200tnc

the custom tune is good. We did a few tests and logging to get the tune dialed in. Still need to dyno so we can make a few changes and verify that what I'm running is at peak. We have a mild tune in the car at the moment until i get the dyno done and we can see the numbers etc.
the got tuned turbo looks good. Went thru the specs etc with one of their techs a while back and it seems good. Only issue I see is when talking to them they tried to tell me that the turbo is a plug and play no tune etc needed when installed. I find that extremely hard to believe. Finding a company to tune the hybrid turbo is difficult. Most companies are not messing with our platform anymore as the demand is low. I have reached out to several places trying to get a dyno tune instead of a email tune with no luck.

Thanks for the reply! I don't mind doing logs and remote tunes but do wish there was a way to build on OV's custom tune on my NX, since that was excellent.

Were you given some sort of "limp" tune to run after the new turbo was installed and before any logging happened? Was the logger TTi's own software?

And yes, I agree that plug and play, no-tune advice for a hybrid turbo that's claimed to be capable of over 300hp is rather questionable. I do plan to keep whatever tune I end up with at 10 to 15%-ish below max power for longevity - 280 on a 320 setup, for example.

Thanks again.

the data logging i had to use my own set up. Installed a wide band O2 sensor to track air fuel ratios etc. Used an app on my phone and did screen grabs etc while doing pulls wide open throttle etc and sent those in to get some adjustments. 1st tune had issue with throttle position map. Fixed that and then we did a few others to dial in a little more power boost etc. Tansmission tune is the stage 2 plus set up I have had and works fine with the added power.

Update tried doing a upgrade to the oem system but it was not worth doing at all, so we have move to custom front mount setup.
will update once I get more done

Any update on reflashing the ECU to eliminate the throttle handicap before 4K RPM?

Hi,

how i can dyno the is200t.
We try it and had many struggle from the rear axis, i think the traction control has intervened.
The result 181 crank hp and a very creepy power curve.
We have deactivate trc and asc via button (5 sec push).
Have the is200t a dyno Mode? Is the paddle dance needed for a valid dyno result?

The D3 Performance tune seems to have solved it, I am very happy with the difference.

Anyone still on the Orange Virus Tune? I might make a change to D3, but wanted to know if anyone has done so before.

Minitech

I'm too am still on an old OV tune myself, i would be interested in possibly going to D3 depending on how happy folks are with it when compared to OV, specifically with the transmission as i am not sure if that tune includes the transmission tune as well or only engine? With OV the trans shift point and response is good but the throttle/pedal delay is certainly pretty bad for sure.
