Just tuned my Ap2 on Haltech Sport 1000.. +26whp!
#41
Just came back from getting '05 ap2 tuned with the haltech 1000 with pnp harness. Super quick instal and easy for when I need to swap in the oem ecu for inspections. Just a few things I noticed about the unit
The temp gauge is fully functional
The start up is close to oem
The numbers were where expected with bolt ons 225hp and 167tq. The midrange gain was unreal. Car feels very strong now from way down low all the way to the top.
Jeff Evans had only great things to say about this unit we'll see how it does over time.
Jeff had a promo for the unit and harness and since then the prices went up around 10-15%, however the unit with harness will be around $1500 I believe. Love the unit so far and definitely recommend going to jeff Evans if you're close to get it tuned. He's a pro, no doubt.

So with haltech, still need to remove for inspection huh?
Have you had AEM? Is haltech much easier to remove than AEM ones?

Here's the AP1/AP2 up to 05 PNP setup.
Here's the results testing on an AP1. Did not spend as much time tuning as the AP2 above. Was basically doing an initial base setup for development. I'm sure with more tuning greater power would be gained especially in the VTEC activation area.

If you put in a test pipe and exhaust, you should be able to lower VTEC to around 4k.
Also make sure you are advancing the timing in the new VTEC range between 4-6k to maximize gains.
On corn fuel, you should be able to advance timing even more for additional power.

Timing did NOTHING at all low or top on E85 believe it or not.. In theory you would think yes it would work but its not taking it at all.. Well see with Cat removed how it goes..

I know when I advanced timing at the new VTEC point on my car I picked up additional torque. I also had a full exhaust (header, test pipe, 70mm single exhaust).

Surprising. Perhaps removing the cat will make the difference.

For me e85 is likely required to extract full HP at a reasonable cost(I mean I could run 100OCTT at $5-6 a gallon). But that's because comp is 12.7 on 91 so timing is extremely conservative. I think we are on the low end of stock right now for safety.
e85 will be tuned once we get some cams.

is the a/f tune on the lean side? 14 and a spike to crazy lean around 5800?
