My TDC tool had been borrowed a few years ago and it was tweaked during the process over at a friends house. I've used it multiple times and its worked fine but I guess the bolt had been bent a few too many times.

Looks like everyone is starting to get on the same page with the rules, MIR & Cecil are 3000 for SB single turbo and ORTC is 2950.

If you need a driver for that, you know I have a LOT of experience... I even have a cover and heater in case Shawn gets a chill.

See you Friday!

We're going to thrash tomorrow to get ready for friday testing. I've got the AMS-1000 loaded with our 4.700 @ 165 tune but that was 300+# heavier. As long as we dont have any issues friday should be fun. If the new setup cures the boost curve problems, its going to be off the chain. I'll be happy going from A to B.....a 4.5x would be nice also.

Isn't every 100#'s worth 0.10 ET?!?!?

That would make your 4.701 1/8ET become a 4.401 1/8ET
