Okay show us a dyno chart for 2014-UP IS350 RWD with OVTuned. So we can see which better.

RRR tune for the AWD have no Slip issue. ONLY the RWD and it will be fixed soon as what Rafi said.

From their Facebook page:



I'm finding it hard to believe that the transmission slip is normal given that no tuned 2IS nor 3IS have said anything regarding it.

As you see the RPM not raised to 7200.

RRR can do like this.

Looking to my graph this Slip is after 6900 RPM.

The graph is old from when they first started. They also can do 7200/7400 and E85.

If I could find it, would I not have posted it? I'm telling you that the transmission slip seems irregular because no 2IS or 3IS OVTuned customer seems to have experienced it. I'm sure OVTuned probably has it; ask him for it?

I have tried other companies and they all have that Slip.

I have talked with Rafi about this Slip and he told me he will have TCU Tune soon. That will help this Slip.

Overall, Best two Tune I have tried so far ( RRR & Dubike_Dyno )

It seems like as well. There are just more tuning options with OV including transmission logics.

The problem is, no one here has the tune with enough knowledge to answer or give any kind of review of the tune. That is the only reason why I have not purchased the tune. Looking at Mesh's dyno, it seems like they just raised the fuel cut. the power even tapers after the 6400 rpm.

I know that in normal, Eco, sport and sport + while in drive the Transmission continues to shift at the normal point until you move the transmission selection to manual mode and in sport or sport + where it starts shifting at 7200k or 7400k.
I know this is kind of an old thread but there really is no reason to have a 7200 redline. It puts unnecessary strain on the engine. My car peaked 300 @ 6200. We ran three runs, same result all three times..

Peak hp is 6200 anyway. Going up to 7200 is a moot point. If you're still on the fence I'd suggest you buy the tune..I got 40 whp with ark grip and tune..

I am on the fence in purchasing the less expensive OVD tune but I like the fact that RR is working on the supercharger for our cars and will discount the kit if we already own the tune.

The main perk I see is the 7200k or the 7400k redline. Maybe a faster 0-60?
Another perk would be one shift to get to 60.
I have heard several RC350 exhaust videos of that new redline and it is sweet.
I just installed RR Racing's tune. Best $500 I've ever spent but you don't need to go up to 7200. Peak is 6200 @ 300 with exhaust.

Any chance you have the dyno for that? Would love to see the stock versus upgrade (or even just the upgrade). Very curious how the torque curve changes from stock as that is where the "pull" comes from. And did I read this right that you got 300whp with just the exhaust and tune? If so, that's awesome! Very interested in real-world driving impressions versus dyno pulls or quarter mile blasts.

Thanks for all the info!
