Custom tune with WedgePerformance starts tomorrow.

I have been running a PTF custom 93 tune and E50 tune for the past 8 months. I have been very happy with the Dzenno's tunes but I want to give Ken at WedgePerformance a shot of tuning my Z4. I will post some dyno results once Ken gets the tune dialed in.

Still working on it. It has been too cold to log so I haven't even gotten their initial tune loaded on my car yet. I am going to try this weekend.

First Wedge Map and previous PTF 93 Map. Both logs were done on same stretch of road and in the same gear.

Wedge updated my map based on my first log and I will try to get out again this weekend and run another log.

Am I reading correctly, PTF tune was 380, Wedge is 418! That's quite a big jump. Is that @ the wheels?

Yes, Virtual Dyno measures at the wheels. Wedge is still working on the map and I have another one to run but we are getting close. Both maps are on 93 octane.

Very happy so far.

I have been working with Wedge over the past few weeks and we are on version 5 on a 93 octane map. It feels very strong and runs super smooth. Here is my most recent log:

Damn, how accurate is virtual dyno? It must not just feel strong, 400 at the wheels must be very quick. I just this second got an email from Wedge, can't wait!

It is fairly accurate if you log correctly. I am not so concerned about numbers and I use it more for the graphs but in my experience it is usually within 10 hp up or down.

Very nice results. I have begun e-mailing with them to hopefully get this started soon. Need to find some time to log now.

Results should not be much different because you can choose the gearing on the VD.

I'm curious how you use Virtual Dyno. Do you download it to your wireless device, then plug the device into your OBD2? Or do you log with, for example your AccessPort, then send that log data to the Virtual Dyno app?
