ive also dynoed the car after the track times and put down 276 HP and 310 TQ, however i have a missfire above 4,500...so it looks like ill be buying some plugs, wires, and an accel opti in the very near future. so my question is should i see much better times with the tune up and maybe a decent set of tires( i know tires will drop my times signifcantly but a full second?)

on a more related note. i borrowed a set of ET streets and ill be going to the track tommorrow, and if i dont get better times, ill just cry more. hopefully itll up my trap too. where do you M6 guys shift? i usually shift at about 5-5,500
i shift at 5900 My revlimiter is set at 6000 tho i was shifting at 5700 before the tune. A shift light will help Lt1 tachs are a little fast. Im gunna try and get down their tommorow hope to see ya their.

I also need some rear pro stars before I can go back. That and I have been very busy these days so I doubt it will be back to the track this year.
