It's been tuned on a wideband 02 for like a year or two now....

as far as dyno #s I havent been yet, but I have been to the track but I am having problems with the clutch hydraulics....I am getting a new SPEC 3, flywheel, master & slave and hopefully this problem with go away...

I can tell you I kept running low 13s babying the launch and coasting through the traps with it stuck in third gear The car is parked untlI get those parts in...pissed me off

As soon as that stuff hits my doorstep I'll be putting it on on the spot lol...

When I do I will post a link here..

But dont think its the cam...I just so happen to have a car that loves to hate me Once this is fixed I am looking for low 12's and go from there...

Maybe soeone here will chime in with their track experience with the 226...
