Yup, I was the one that you raced on telegraph and blew my motor. I am not sure I want to go from a 20 roll, I spin really bad with the 4.10s. I would if I had some drag radials.

Chris, why didn't Livernois staighten out the tune for you? Didn't they perform the install and tune it in the 1st place. How's low speed driveability? 1st gear at 12-1500rpm slowly through a parking lot. Most cars with bucking problems will be less apparent in 6th at low speeds. 1st gear at low speed it'll stick like a sore thumb.
I'm looking to get my car tuned.

I have just a hint of bucking in 1st gear and 2nd gear. In all the higher gears it is virtually unnoticeable. The biggest improvement is my idle, it is rock solid now. Before my idle was all over the place.

Very hard to get rid of totally especially when you have a decent size cam. Just a hint is pretty good IMHO. I may look into getting Kirk to do my car. My buddy said he would do it for me but he's 3 hours away so Katech may be an option.
