Hi all! Been running ktuner for a few months and loving it, but only just signed up on here.
I’m curious whether anyone can help me estimate (even if it’s a very rough estimate) what kind of hp and torque gains I’m getting. I know the best answer is to dyno it, but to be frank it’s not worth it to me to spend money on that when I could be saving it for other upgrades. If that means I can’t get a good answer, I can live with that!
Here’s my setup:
2018 EX-T Coupe
Ktuner stage 1 (I’m also curious what people think I’d be getting with stage 2)
PRL catted downpipe, heatwrapped.
I’ve seen ktuner’s advertised gains but I haven’t seen any differentiation between the base tunes so that’s throwing me off. I also know PRL’s advertised numbers for the downpipe but I figure there’s probably an interaction with the tune where the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
Thanks!
Aaron

Re: HP/Torque Estimate Without Dyno
There's a way to use mass air flow values to give a rough calculation of power. It's nowhere near exact, but can be used to compare one thing to another. Search the net.
