Would the CAS require the car to be tuned or would this just eliminate the chance of a fluctuation which causes a misfire?

If the car was tuned with a dodgy CAS then there is the possibility that the tune will be substandard (in terms of ignition timing) compared to what it could be with a good CAS, so would possibly DESERVE a retune. You'd certainly want to run it up to have a look and a listen after changing the CAS anyway.

The time they spend on the dyno is still time

This is how pretty much all dyno operators work. You are paying for time, not results.

Re the CAS, if it was noisy before then what it would cause is an inaccurate timing signal, to tune around this you need to be more conservative than usual with your ignition timing which means less power. With a clean CAS signal you can usually get a bit more timing in because the fuzz/jitter in the signal is gone so you don't need the additional safety margin due to CAS inaccuracy.

    • It wasn't about the dollars. I mean how she didn't like the loud exhaust and you had to change it again 😛
    • I'll tell her I put in a new air filter on it, which, it would have anyway with the ITB's In the end she isn't to fussed, she spends lots of money on hair, nails, make-up and all the other "required" beauty products that women use, plus I grease the wheels with shiny gifts and holidays wherever and whenever I can She once questioned my car spending "budget", but after itemising everything she spends on herself, and what I spend on her, and the fact that I don't care if she does or doesn't wear make-up and fancy pants perfume, or requires new outfits for every wedding, funeral or anything else she deems worthy, and I'm quite happy to go "real" camping, instead of staying in hotels or jaunts on cruise ships, she decided not to press the subject on how I spend funds, and has never asked "how much did that cost" again, so a win to me And how often can you say you really get a win with the fairer sex? She is a good woman, and in the big picture, I'm really lucky.....that she hasn't killed me yet
    • What will you do when the Minister of War and Finance says the intake noises are too loud?
    • Will the clear coat dissolve the ink tho?? I thought about clear vinyl tape too. Thinking what to do haha. The one I have now is cracked in 1 spot, otherwise mint. Plus the MINES one is much thicker plastic material so its not flimsy at all.
    • No. Go a different colour, and just trim it at an edge line. Even manufacturers do different panels different colours etc.
