Car was hit today by a run away shopping cart. Has a small dent behind the rear wheel well, calling corporate to try to get a claim filed this week.

Was the car tuned on the chipped ecu,or are you just assuming its will make 240whp??

I dont understand how Inline pro would make that much less power,when its being DYNO tuned.

Plus,that header is junk, and on stock bore.

Im not bashing im just really curious as to how a CHIP kit made more power than a DYNO tune,theres no possible way to adjust/time the cams 100% accurately unless your seeing power pulls on a dyno.

I was told that the motor was running lean on the chipped ECU, thats why the hondata was purchased. It was then tuned to be a safe daily driver.

I wouldn't say the header is junk, its good quality and better than stock.

I was able to file the claim with Foodlion today, an adjuster will look at the car later this week. Sounds like everything will be taken care of. So far, I'm impressed with how willing they have been to help me.
