CANZOOMER WORKS? Prove it - Give me a dyno.
Ok, I did a search, and I have yet to find anything that actually shows gains with the Canzoomer unit.
A lot of people are making ridiculous claims, like it adds 25-30 horsepower - I think this is bullshit, and I want to see some proof - either give me track times (slip required), or show me INDEPENDENT dynos.

Why don't you take a drive inside an 8 that has one. After driving my 8 with a modified Stage 2 map, I really can't tell the difference anymore. If I turn it off, which I haven't done in months, I would feel the difference. I have not made any adjustments since last Summer's tuning. I'm waiting for this Summer to come around again.
You know what, your post just gave me an idea. I really think it has made a huge difference in my car, so to prove it I'm going to get a dyno run. Perhaps this weekend. I'm going to post up for info on a dyno shop around my area :D

yo xyntax,
I also wanna dyno mine. and I am at the san jose area.
I just called dynospotracing.com
85 for standard dyno (3-5 run)
125 with W/b dyno (means A/F)
185 for 1 hours dyno we can tuned there
I did my old car dyno there (4-5 times -- superchargered gsr). they are good

Ok, here's the thing. I have been running Stage 2 and modified Stage 2 since last October. Everything is stock, so far no problems. If my Cat dies out, then it's due for a high-flow cat. I have also ran 87, 89, and 91 octanes. Stage 2 is kinda iffy when I'm running 87. I used to run 87 while having Stage 1.1 map coz it felt stronger than running on 91.

Someone gave me the CZ Stage 2 map and then I made my own adjustments based upon it. Running stock cat until it dies, that way I will have a better measurement as to how much CZ stage 2 the stock cat could take :D
btw, how much was your high-flow cat? I might need to start thinking about which ones to buy soon.

Now ask yourself this: Considering a dyno runs $80 and up in most places, how many people with NO mods who just slapped in a CZ unit do you think are going to hunt down a dyno shop and go the the PITA of getting it tested? There may be a few, but most folks with that mentality could care less about a dyno chart. They care if it makes their cars "seem" faster. The guys who get dynos done are the ones who are really working to make the car faster, and the CZ unit alone will not go nearly as far as it + high flow cat, flywheel, exhaust, etc. In other words, the guys who get dynos done are enthusiasts who are gonna do more to their cars than the ones that want a plug and play solution.
I was one of the early adopters of this unit, and while I got a baseline dyno done (~180 WHP) I have not done one since. Instead, I've been using my GTech Pro Comp to measure gains as I tuned the unit. Call me a liar all you like, but according to my GTech I've gotten to almost +25 whp consistantly. As have others. But maybe we're all liars who are deliberately misleading the whole community as part of some mass conspiracy for Canzoomer to take over the world one unit at a time. :p
Am I gonna run right out and get that test for you? Nope. Partially because my car has lots of other mods (which you obviously think invalidates the whole test) and partly because I'll be getting forced induction pretty soon and either using the CZ unit for engine management or selling it. I think you'll find many people who bought the CZ unit are in the same boat as me.

"It seems" the only support for the product is coming from a few knowledgeable board members willing to help and have no direct affiliation with canzoomer.
