Jbaker1121's FX50 UpRev Osiris Tune

Hey all,

I'll see about getting over to Uprev after the holidays. As some know the oirignal base ROM for the FX50 came from me and it was some time ago when Uprev got it. I'll check in and see if they need the car for adjustment.

Unfortunately they don't have an AWD dyno so we can't tune just any time (have to use a dyno at another shop) but it probably isn't needed for this.
 
Just throwing this out there for other people considering a tune but you will always have a better experience with a PRO tuner, they've got the connections, they've had the official training... and are usually on a first name basis with the Uprev guys. When a PRO tuner calls with an issue they drop everything and help, the guy who tuned your car (no offense) is just another Joe blow and doesn't get that level of service.

Shops that tune Uprev but aren't willing to become a certified protuner are basically saying they want to use Uprev's product to make money but aren't willing to do it correctly.
 
Folks should realize that without performance mods (like a full catback) you won't see much gain from a tune (as Jbakers results show). The reason the other facebook post showed such gains was because of the full catback. Much like the Vettle which is basically an FX50s with improved exhaust and a tune.

I wouldn't necessarily blame the tuner for the results.
 
^The Facebook page listed a lower initial HP # so it would look like they added ~30hp with the tune.
 
Somebody said they were headed over there (I forget who) with their FX50 for something and was going to have them fix the issue. I emailed them and got no response, offered to send my ROM, etc.

Horrible customer service.
 
Guys, I did tuning using Osiris twice from my FX35 2009 , but seems till now I did not reach the optimum tuning. Ignition timing is set as 12.5 and A/F ratio is about 13.394. Do u know what is the optimum time ignition cuz my car is feels like it ll shut down n vapor chock. Especially during the 5th speed from 4th n normal driving.

(cross-post from my general thread here: #464 )

Went to my old buddies at Vinny Ten Racing out in Long Island, NY. (Some of you may remember my experience with them in the past with my FX35)
also, they are known for some nasty VQ35 builds (first to 800hp with the Jim Wolf Twin Turbo kit) and Vinny Ten got his name to fame in the 90's getting his Supra MK4 the first into the 10's on the 1/4....so my FX is in good hands.



I'll get to the numbers: (keep in mind these are DYNOJET AWD DYNO numbers)

Base run with old tune not setup for test pipes: 367 awhp / 348 ft/lb
Not a smooth curve, power was all at 7k aka not practically usable

Maximum numbers achieved after tuning for top end power and pre-smoothing: 368 AWHP / 358 ft/lb Tq


FINAL Average numbers after smoothing and adjusting power curve: 361 AWHP / 352 ft/lb TQ

IMG_1307_zpsoeu2g8qv.jpg
The tune moved more usable power to around 5k vs. the 7k it was at before, and made the entire curve much smoother
(red is new curve, blue is old - ignore the red dropping out at end, this is from the transmission overheating after 15+ runs, explained more in my Uprev Tune thread)

after a long evening, the FX50 emerged with not just a few more ponies, but more usable power than before.
Butt dyno felt it on the hour drive home on both the highway and from stoplight.

These numbers are from a DYNOJET AWD DYNO, which reads differently than the MUSTANG DYNO my last tune was done on.

my MUSTANG DYNO numbers after a tune with just the Mufflers and Filters was 329 AWHP / 338 ft/lb TQ
That same tune on the DYNOJET (albeit with test pipes added) was 367 AWHP / 348 ft/lb TQ

So yes, the DYNOJET read ~30 more HP but only 10 more lb/ft - this is both because they read power differently and the way they are set up.
The guys at VTR swear their number is more accurate, and that because they let the transmission be cool before doing pulls, this is what produced the higher number.

So, whether you want to saw one number is reading high or the other low, keep in mind they are not that far off, and even if you take the average between them, it comes out to a healthy average of 348 AWHP / 343 lb/ft TQ- Which isn't that ridiculous a number for the 50.

Now I am unsure of how exactly to calculate crank HP and what not, but I used some online calculators and it seems that the numbers are follows:

Original Dyno run at 329 HP / 338 TQ = 404 crank hp (+14 HP / 18.5% drivetrain loss)
+ ~5 for Test pipes = 410 crank hp (+ 20 HP / 18.5 % drivetrain loss)
VTR Dyno run max: 367 HP / 358 TQ = 450 crank hp (+ 60 HP / 18.4% drivetrain loss)
VTR Dyno run avg: 360 HP / 352 TQ = 440 crank hp (+ 50 HP / 18% drivetrain loss)

I think that the MUSTANG Dyno numbers are a bit more realistic,
so I think it is safe to say that I added around 20 horsepower after mufflers, test pipes, intake filters, and a tune

Thats a beautiful setup, love the pulls.

Have you heard of BrenTune? I heard about them through some motorcycle forums and have a few of their maps on my bike, they did wonders with the tune.

Thanks man.

I have not heard of brenTune. I think UpRev Osiris is the only current tuning software for our cars.
 
Does anybody know what is the dyno numbers for the stock AWD fx35 2009. I remember I saw the RWD but did not c any on the AWD stock. My best # on Mustang dyno is 296 AWHP and 251.5 torque

This is about FX50's but for the 09 35's range it should be around 280 for the AWD - basically the same as the G37x sedans, but some dynos read differently.
 
I don't think BrenTuning has an actual flasher or any sort of hardware. They just offer tuning on platforms using devices such as Cobb. I've heard they're coming out with an app for flash tuning, but I'm not sure. They do some work on BMW's so I see some updates here and there. But it's not relevant here as I don't believe they have any tunes for Nissan/Infinitis at all much less the FX.

I know they work a lot on BMWs and Subarus. They've tuned my bikes, and was considering driving down to their shop to get tuned - but that'll have to wait till next summer. They dont offer any flashers that supports Infiniti, but they do have it for other vehicles (BMW, Audi, Merc, etc). They do claim to have tuned a QX56 as per their website information. Very nice people to deal with and very knowledgeable I think; helped me a lot with my bike tuning issues.

What I meant is the stock, with out tuning or any mods. The RWD stock is about 260 whp on dynojet, am assuming the AWD ll be lower # but how much lower? Dont know. Mustang dyno results usually 90% from the dynojet results.
