So what are ya running it on about 1/3 of the boost that you can, and leaving on none?

You've got about 2 seconds you can shop off the timeslip IMO

Congratz on the lic passes but like I said in the earlier post its a 8 sec mph for sure, just gotta get the car actually there in that time. It has happened and it will happen to again, even my car is a great example of that.

6 speed
3950 race weight
ran 12.7 @ 107/106 making 326 rwhp (un tuned lid and headers) and 3.42s

and with all thats in the sig

13.1 @108.9

keep in mind too...I intentionally kept the tuneup soft so I could make my license passes...an aborted run would've delayed it

I'm gonna fix some bugs...and it'll be out in a week and a half with a much more aggressive tuneup
