Im not sure why anyone would pay $300 more for a proven reliable turbo vendor that builds and balances in house and only builds n54 turbos.
daw are stage 4 and cheaper. Thats like 2 stages better.

3 year unlimited mile warranty bro, and you get to deal with well known scammers who will give you a 5% discount via facebook. Who needs balanced turbines and vsr balace sheets? I am just going to #sendit anyways and gap you.

fucking casual.

Just look at the list of approved tuners on DAW website.

Wedge Performance... yes
David Shoup... also yes
Dr. Vu Tuning.... dafuq?

So you're gonna tell me that this Phuong guy who allegedly has hacked wedge performance maps is a more qualified tuner than V8bait Justin, Chris Kontos, etc?

DAW is a joke and this whole scheme has Shitfire Race written all over it.

DOC VU TUNING IS NOW AVAILABE FOR ALL N5X MHD AND JB4 EQUIPPED BMWS!! STARTING AT $375 FOR A BUILT FROM SCRATCH BASEMAP + UP TO 5 REVISIONS. **ADDITIONAL REVISIONS WILL BE $40 EACH. EMAIL FOR MORE INFO: [email protected]

So...after they can't figure it out after 5 revisions they start to charge you for their incompetence?

AVAILABE? I'm not familiar with that word. But I totally trust a tuner and website owner who misspells words and can't take the time to spell check their website with my engine. They literally put in the least effort possible to make a description. At least they used all CAPS like a teenager on facebook messenger. MAYBE IF I USE ALL CAPS SOMEONE WILL READ THIS!!!



CUSTOM TUNING YOUR N5X IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY EXISTING WARRANTY AND WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO DISCONTINUE TUNING AT ANY POINT DURING THE PROCESS. WE DO NOT OFFER ANY WARRANTY FOR TUNES EITHER IMPLIED OR EXPRESSED. MODIFYING A STOCK VEHICLE IS AT THE BUYERS RISK ALONE. THANKS! -MISFIRE RAC

They can stop tuning at any point after you have paid just because they want to?



https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-shoup-a31217a7 <--had a number of jobs that is for sure. Couldn't hold one for more than 2 years is a red flag. You think you would edit your linkedin not to show your revolving door of employment. But he has 13 years of tuning experience, so he has that going for him. So do I if you count a wideband and AFR controller in my teens. How old is this guy? He looks young https://www.facebook.com/david.shoup.12/ really 13 years? The guy lists a fake fraternity that he claims he started called Zi Psi. Nothing like lying on your LinkedIn. Class Act.

Putting Vargas Turbos to shame, running a 10.9 in the 1/4 on stock engine, stock trans, DI only, e50, only 22psi on Dynamic Autowerx Stage 2+ Hybrid Turbos. 🙌 Did I mention DA twins include a 3 year warranty, and cost half of VTT GC turbos?! #fckVTT
"
@Chris@VargasTurboTech what did you guys do to these guys? They sure have a hard on for you.





To think all this platform needed was DAW turbos all along!

Fail.

I am pleased to say that gang is not a fan of VTT. It was probably one of the times Tony told them, well, something like this:


It also probably doesn't help our popularity with them and their resellers that we have been contacted by some folks with issues. By "we" I mean, Tony, and he probably wasn't the most diplomatic in his response (and by probably, I mean wasn't). Who could have known? :laughing: Bummer for those who took the plunge. I have no first hand experience but have been contacted with complaints about warranty void. I don't know all the details but I know what scam smells like. Even if you don't like us, there are other established choices that will, at least to my knowledge, stand behind their products.

I don't know or particularly care who DAW is, but the resellers that I'm aware of are truly special pieces of work. I presume they called us out to try to drum up something like credibility. It'll probably work with their target audience. IMO it's very doubtful we'll see them at a race. It's a common theme with this type.

Torgus, you and I are not friends by any stretch of the imagination, but you have more brain power in your toenail clippings than Jake Ulch. I'm surprised he can spell VTT right. If you saw some of the things he emailed Tony...

Back to your regularly scheduled thread.

These are turbos for high schoolers who just bought the cheapest 335i on craigslist and believe the first thing they see/hear on instagram.

Unfortunately they're uneducated about the platform and the options out there, so companies like these will prey on the weak.

Guys I have the stage 2+ 775 rs ones and were still in process of tuning my car custom tune but when we are on map 7 it did 511 wheel hp and 488 or something torque. Amazing numbers for just a map 7 (mhd back end flash pure evil tuning) on e42 only. Will be finishing the full.custom tune soon

@ 50 seconds into the video ... what the heck is up with the front fender of the car? I can't tell if it has been mud bogging or just completely mangled.

Here's the homework of rotating the virtual dyno graph so people can actually read it.

Eh...at first I was like - cool numbers. Then @fmorelli rotated it and I see it is VirtualDyno and I was like boo. I am one of the biggest proponents of Virtual Dyno - when I do it, lol. I have so little faith in people's ability to use that app, I don't believe it one bit unless they a. include the log, and b. all the data they ran it with.

Sorry, until then, this is 511 VWHP.

Just look at the list of approved tuners on DAW website.

David Shoup... also yes

So I see im being mentioned here. So to clear the air on a couple things. I am in no way associated with Dynamic Autowerks. I am in no way associated with anyone except David Shoup Tuning.

I was placed on this list of recommended tuners probably because the owner of Das Autowerks was one of my long time clients and he sells DA turbos? Not really sure. I dont have any affiliations with anyone and am 100% independent. I was placed on this list without my knowledge. I dont mind if im on a preferred tuner list is long as the product as performing as intended. If the product isnt performing as intended then I certainly do not want to be associated with it. I dont follow the forums much anymore as I've been blessed to have a volume of work that doesnt give me much time to get on here.

I had a great conversation on messenger with Tony @ VTT this morning and he gave me some feedback that I was being associated with DA, Misfire, etc. Im 100% independent. I tune every setup you can think of from every manufacturer. I dont take sides and dont sell any products. If someone buys cheap turbos, im going to be upfront and let that person know the risks before starting a tune. I make recommendations on things i would change and tune the car properly. There are some clients that i decline to tune since I know their car isnt going to be problematic due to cheap parts, poor maintenance, etc.

At the end of the day I have no affiliations. I tune these cars because I enjoy it and i dont want to be a part of any vendor politics.

Hopefully this was somewhat on topic.

I would never post a log dyno if I did it myself this is "pure evil tuning" Jason that has been doing this for a long time sent me this log. He idvery accurate on the numbers! 15 hp +/- it can vary just like dyno to dyno. Also dont forget this is only on our evil e40 nacl end flash but no custom tune! Lower boost at the moment .

What is the big cloud of smoke when you came to a stop (@2:00)?

Thank you for posting the video and the numbers. I'm glad there are those that are actually contributing to this thread and staying on topic.

The car is completely straight piped and my piston rings were blownbprior to this on stock turbos so we swapped the motor just couple days ago with turbos installed. so it still burning off oil that was dumped by piston rings. It used to smoke like a train before swapping engine. Go look on my YouTube profile I have videos of us doing all the work on the car. plus straight piped. Never smokes usually maybe cause I got it so hot and last oil burned off.

Guys even if I stay on this jb4 map and dont even finish a tune at 511 wheel hp that's still soo fast!!! Stock turbos records is about that numbers but the thing pulls like a freight train all the way to 7k rpms and never letting off. Plus you have a reliable ass car on e40 only and safe boost that you can take on stock hellcats. That's if o stay as is but I am not ofcourse. Just saying how cool it is to buy 1600 turbos and have reliable car and power that doesn't die on high rpms. It's a no brainers to me!

Ah ok well hopefully the smoke goes away. I wouldn't put too much faith into a virtual Dyno. Glad you are happy with them and the results! I wouldn't go too far with the reliability part. It appears it has been running a few days.

True but I know guy ran them for 20k miles at 24 psi or so without issues. But we will see how mine last. All depends how hard you beat on them as well. Btw since then or before that I heavent noticed smoke. Straight pipe will have some but not a lot. I'll make more videos soon. I'll be going to the track soon to test them out. Stag tuned
