I just had Stage 2 dynoed. Same shop as my dyno of 3 weeks ago. I showed only 16hp increase. and a loss of torque as well. I am going to post as soon as I get home in 1 hour.

Could it be that the new setup hasnt had time to loosen up yet??? PLZ?
What the hell is going on here? This will definately **** me off if this is the case.
Does the car feel any faster? Do you think time is needed for adjustment to all your mods? There is so many questions surrounding this it's not funny.

Ok well...here's my theory:
Both cars we've seen dyno's for already had basic mods...I/H/E at the very least, correct??
Well, when you strap on an intake don't you have to give the PCM some mileage for it to catch up before you see gains? I'm not sure about the RL w/ stage 2 but Vic_Red dyno'd almost directly after his install. SO...technically...after the reflash wouldnt the PCM be thinking that the engine is running stock + stage 2? Maybe it needs time to readjust to the other bolt-ons before we'll see anything major...
Feel free to jump down my throat on this, guys...i could definitely be wrong
