*** All your bluefin/superchips questions and answers in here please.
tautvydasv:
Superchips are claiming much more than they give. Today I did dyno runs with pirelli edition dsg golf. Firstly with stage 2 software however mine is with reduced turbo boost till ~1.3bar, due to fueling issue. After seeing the result(bluefin modas), I asked for another dyno run with stage 1 software(bluefin stage 1). The result I saw, was :fighting: Then I though maybe there is something wrong with my car, so I uploaded standart software and did a run. Numbers were like in catalogue (orig).
To add, we have two same cars. Both of them run bluefin, both of them run the same. We did couple of roll on runing. So for sure both cars are in good shape, as they perform identically. And they are pretty new, around 10months old, we received them in august,2008.
All runs were done in 6th gear. Any ideas ? Why I am having such small numbers?

Welcome to the forum :happy2:
I have a question for you.
Did you do the dyno runs straight after uploading each of the maps?
The reason I am asking is that it can take time for the ECU to adapt to the map and you will not see the best figures for a while after the car has been mapped. So swapping two or three times in a day will simply confuse the adaptation of the ECU.
tautvydasv:
Thank you for your reply.
1st run was with stage2 program, that had been in the car for ~1000-2000km. The result was 277hp max.
Then I have uploaded stage 1 program, that I have been using for like 5months. Then we did a pull.
After that I have uploaded stock, also without adaption. However it did its job :D Also I have questioned that guy at dyno stand, he said that adaptio usually does not make a lot of difference.
Talking about adaptation in my practise difference after it is very small less than 10hp. (before this car I had golf gti 1.8t, audi a3 1.8t, bmw 330d all of them I have modded)
Hurdy:
One thing I have noticed is that you are quoting hp. Are you quoting power at the wheels or at the flywheel?
Superchips figures are based on flywheel figures.
tautvydasv:
ÃŒt is flywheel.
With original program it has 235 hp after stage1 software only +15hp..
Edit:
Well Superchips are silent for two days. What can this mean?
Frankly speaking any kind of explanation would be appreciated. As many of you who have done dynos, all of them were done at SC. It is very hard to find any that were done elsewhere.
