Tuning a Koni Challenge Cup Car #18 Porsche 997
EVOMSit - intelligent tuning for cars that are 100% street, 100% race or something in between. In May of 2009 this car, owned by Marcus Motorsports, was brought to Arizona after a Koni Challenge race in Laguna Seca. EVOMS specializes in maximizing performance under any driving conditiion. Find out why Evolution MotorSports is the intelligent choice for race prep and intelligent tuning!

This is the "intelligent tuning" of the EVOMS EVT720 Performance System for the Porsche 997 Twin Turbo at the Evolution MotorSports facility in Tempe, Arizona. This video offers a glimpse of the "intelligent" process behind EVOMSit "intelligent tuning". Watch EVOMS John Bray, Senior Porsche Technician and Engine Builder as well as EVOMS Founder Todd Zuccone as he maximizes power while maintaining drivability.With the intelligent tuning of EVOMSit the 997 EVT720 Performance System generates ~ 720HP and 725 ft./lb TQ.
The Stig who? See Jigsaw Testing a Supperleggera
The terrifying Jigsaw, testing the Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera at Evolution MotorSports after the EVOMSit software upgrade. Power gains were about 20 HP/TQ after the intelligent tuning. EVOMSit is the only company in the USA that can tune these EFI/Lamborghini ECU's in house.

Tuning the Sharkwerks 2010 3.8L GT3
We drove the car to Stasis Engineering (an Audi Tuner, located at Infineon Raceway) and reserved the dyno for the whole day. I'll tell you now, there's nothing quite like sitting in a room for 8 hours while a GT3 motor is taken to 8500 RPMs.
We made around 60 pulls throughout the day with various configurations, and made adjustments to the GT3 ECU software throughout the day. We also used this time to dyno the SharkWerks 997 GT3 Track Exhaust system and tuned software specifically for the low restriction exhaust.
The tuning involves more aggressive fuel calibrations, timing advance optimization for specific grades of fuel, and a more responsive accelerator e-gas settings.
A summary:
With software only, the 2010 GT3 went from 392 RWHP to 404 RWHP at the peak. The car gained about this much horsepower for most of its RPM range. The car gained over 10 ft-lb of torque at its peak around 6600 RPM and more torque throughout the RPM range. With the exhaust and software, the gains were higher, bringing it up to 414 RWHP at the peak (22 RWHP net gain), more torque at the peak, and a large gain in torque between 3700 and 5400 RPMs.

Tuning the PAPA Smurf Murcielago
We did some extensive dyno testing and tuning on this Murcielago over the past few weeks and I will share the results later on in this post. Since this is an early production Murcielago, the ECU's are a previous generation EFI/Campi/Lamborghini controller which differ from the later 04 and newer model ECU's. We have tuned all of the late generation Gallardo's & Murcielago's but none as early as this car.
After some extensive ECU disassembly, we had to create and test a checksum calculator to work with this type of EPROM data organization. After getting the checksum figured out, it was time to create and test some upgraded mapping and extract some more power from the engine. We tested various ignition changes, fuel setting and load tables to optimize the engines efficiency and generate more power. We are finishing up the final tuning this weekend and we will test the increased rev limiter early next week. Based on the initial testing, we anticipate the final calibration to produce a power gain of more than 20 wheel HP/TQ with a rev limit 300-400 RPMS higher than the stock 7500 RPM limiter.
