Granatelli Fuego Tuner! What can we expect?
One one of the other posts, the GMS Fuego tuner was shown to cause pretty nice improvements on a bone stock car. I would like to keep this topic strictly on the FUEGO tuner and not get a debate on weather one tuner is better than another. That's not the point here. I would just like to see an informative post for a change that keeps in line what it started out to be. Results should make the TMS members more knowledgable about this product and after all, isn't that what we really want to know. I would like to see Joey (JR) Granatelli post his dyno charts for bone stock, maybe his t-body, CAI/MAS sensor and whatever other combos somebody can think of. Once he posts his results, hopefully those that buy the product will also get some dyno runs and post those as well. We all like totally unbiased results. Lets keep this one civil and to the point guys. Knowledge is power (especially when upgrading car parts).....

JR, what kind of results can we expect with your Fuego tuner along with your CAI/MAF combo? I've been holding out for the Fuego to come out and see if you'll offer another great combo offer. I don't need a full out dyno graph, just a good ballpark number will do.

Some of us are just waiting for availability, especially if the Fuego Flash Tuner will also be set up for our 2007s. After seeing all of JR's posts, it won't take a great leap of faith for me to purchase one as soon as it's available.

I will be installing my Granatelli CAI this week so I too am interested in the combination of CAI and Fuego tune. If 40 rwhp can be achieved with this combo I think they'll have a real winner on their hands.

I'm just curious, as I"m new to fixing up newer domestics.. but is 40Rwhp from a tune and CAI possible?
I'm coming from the other side of the fence (imports) and CAI's typically gave maybe MAYBE 8-10hp if that...
again, just curious.. seems like a lot from where i'm standing.

And with the Fuego their showing 25 rwhp
So if you take those numbers realizing you can't add HP claims from both and just add them together for 45 rwhp, I'm hoping that realistically we could see from 30 - 40 rwhp with the two.
JR, if y'all need a test car in Dallas, just let me know! :-)

I always hated when people added numbers together... i would tend to think of it more as an average of the two numbers... I hope to see some decent numbers as well.
I've noticed that V8's tend to have more significant gains than a little tiny 4cylinder import when it comes to siimple boltons....
haha

Actually if you take the dyno numbers they are more like 29hp for the CAI and 31hp for the Fuego. Must have added wrong, or maybe you used the Torque numbers. Either way, nearly 30hp for each individually, wonder what they will do together!!

Agreed, 40HP with maybe 30-35Ft/lbs would be great, that would make it a totally different car IMO! Now if only we can get JR to swing us another great combo deal as soon as the Fuego is released!!

I also hate when people say how much they gained by installing <insert> part, but don't mention the fact that it was also tuned/retuned.
