Sounds like he will have a badass car. I really liked his cobra. It sounded really nice. When will he have his new cobra ready to hit the streets(if it already isn't)? By the way, how bad did he beat the trans am? Do you know most of the people that are on broadway?

Yea what about him. You probably heard that i got beat by him. Is that why you brought it up. Well i know i could have beat him, but i didn't put my sticky tires on. I know i know i sound like a ricer, but i lost that race because of my own stupidity. Yea the hatch is really fast though i must say. Along with his buddies white hatch with ITBs oh man those are insane.

Just had mine at HiTech last summer they did a good job, only flaw still getting figured out is my Idle. But next time I get tuned I am switching to HP tuners and going to chicago and having Jim at Speed Inc tune my car, He has tuned my buddies 00 Z28 H/C/I Nitrous came out great never an issue, Dads 00 WS6 runs really hard Cam only, Another Friends ZO6 cam only car also runs very hard, No issues. In my opinion worth the drive .

Just met up with a few of the locals here in roch today, good crew - nice cars. That Cobra is going to be hell on wheels, and it's spotless (it's not the same car I raced by the way - hah). One of the cleanest turbo cars I've seen.

If anyone in the area wants me to get their car worked out as far as tune goes I'd be willing to help. I've tuned my own and it runs pretty damn well. I use efilive. Looking forward to getting out to cedar falls come spring!



Damn Ryan, looks like we posted at the same time

Yea I haven't decieded what i gonna do with a tune. There is guy that i talk to in Anoka i don't want to put his website up because he isn't a sponser but if you want to know shoot me a pm, he uses hp tuners and he says he does a street tune, and a WOT tune. I thought about going to him, but i dk. I don't want to go to hi-tech because all they are gonna do is a WOT tune, and drive the car on the street more than i take it to the track. I have heard good and bad things about speed inc, but i on't know if i want to drive that far

I remember talking to you a couple of years ago at Porky's. To answer your question, I don't believe any of the local MN tuners actually tune in SD. Any reason for going to SD? I know it's very popular on this board, but I still use a MAF for my 402 setup and it starts, idles and drive great. I would ditch the LS1Edit and move up to HPtuners or EFILive. Well worth it in my book, especially for a A4 with a big stall.

Going FI and I've heard that if you use sd/map tune you can adjust your
% of fuel depending on boost level you are at. Where as with maf you can only set your fuel up for max boost level you are running. Which would cause you to run rich at part throttle or running less then you maximum boost level. right?

DrkPhx you probably met Steve I bought his car last summer. Who tuned your car and what are you using?

Gotcha. I tune my own car with EFIlive. For FI tuning, both EFIlive and HPtuners offer custom operating systems. I would check into those.
