Default Another TR 224 installed!!

I got my TR224 114 installed yesterday. Man does it sound nice. The car actually started on the first turn of the key and I didn't have to drill the TB.
The computer searches a little at idle then sits right at 800. Open the cutouts and it sounds badasss.
I left the stock TC for now I might change it later, but the 3.73's make up for it. Not that I could get any traction anyways. I'm scheduling the tune for tomorrow or beginning of next week. Any guesses on what the outcome will be. Mods in the sig and old numbers.

Congrats on the cam install! My car is a 98 and a M6, so I got worse flowing heads, but less drivetrain loss, I got cats, you don't....I'd say we're about in the same ballpark? See sig. Oh, and mine's on a 112.

Yeah I was really happy with those numbers in an auto.

Yes it was locked.

I did find out that the first owner had some tuning done. I was always curious about that. I always thought 6800 for the rev limiter was a bit high. And the timeing was at 31 degrees. A bit too much I think. My tuner did an outstanding job.

Great numers, but a graph would be cool.

You got a lot of gains from the tune, too. Who did it?
