Cool stuff Chuck, so does the car feel any different now?

oh yeah, much different, revs more smoothly, launches harder and gets better gas mileage 😄 I still have some timing to smoothen out on the daily drive part of it, but it feels more solid.

went down there for a free tune and ending up spending a hair under $500...cheaper than a DSM

I had 1 hour free, sat on the dyno for about 11 hours total. The actual cost of the dyno was $250...so about $25/hour. Can't complain too much.

chuck... how come you had to run 110 to run 17.5psi? or was that a "just to be safe" kinda deal?

Like Tony said it was all I had left.....and I didn't know my boost controller was gonna freak out on me until after I put in $45 worth of 110 octane.

25psi. can't wait to see you run at the track!

those are some good numbers...im actually kinda impressed with those...good job chuck..id love to see it at 25psi...too bad they couldnt just borrow you a boost controller for the dyno...oh well next time haha

Total WHP 310*
Total Torque 352*

*This was on 110 octane race fuel @ ~17.5psi. I would have run w/ more boost but my damn boost controller wouldn't hold boost above 18 psi for more than 1-2 seconds. Considering I normally run ~25psi at the track you can imagine that those numbers would have been significantly higher...and this was a fairly conservative tune, so all-in-all I'm happy. Spent 2 full days on the Dyno, Replaced my front driverside coilpack cuz it melted, replaced all the plugs w/ a set thats 2 steps colder. Total cost: $450.
