this was my first dyno tune....then a couple months later when this situation happend it went down 13 whp and the graph looked exactly the same..... i dont have a pic of the second one but looks the same but jus loss power and my tuner said he doesnt kno why my vtec changed :/ so he jus tuned it again and it worked fine hit at 5700 everytime...... now another couple months its doin it again... and this tuner i go to is a good good tuner, he was in couple magazines for his whips. full blown motorsports in minnesota.. he works with plenty of other cars and great tunes,,, and my motor is pretty healthy. great compression..
