When you supposed to be back?

I have to adjust my Tune aswell, I bought HP Tuners so it should be easy. I have a Gear Swap to do to before I'm ready to run..won't take very long with the 9".

Then maybe we can get all these runs in and then everyone will be happy.

I still have plenty of life left in my Radials..

Question Tuning

Out of curiosity how is the HP tuners? or EFI live? I was thinking about getting headers when I get back in the states and get a minor tune because I need to adjust for the new 4.11's. But I'm going to start my rear mount turbo setup in less then a year and will need a complete tune for that then need a complete tune when I stroke it out to a 383. Is it worth spending ....$700 and trying to figure it out myself or spend 200 when I get back then spend $500 after turbo and $300-$400 again after my stroker upgrade?

I got a good deal on it so I snagged it..that way I can make adjustments every time I do something. They pretty much work the same..HP Tuners has a few more things than EFI Live from what everyone has been sayin..

Best one I got was a 11.19@120, that was with the 402 and blown Rings. This 408 is running alot better so I see it being a little quicker..

I don't have a copy of the slip handy..it was a 1.56 60ft time.

Ya it would be nice to find a close 1/4 Mile..that's about the only track worth going to.

I paid 175 first time and 100 second time for EFI live tune..its is a good investment if you can get time to actually tune...Rhino 79 did mine..just a little hard to get ahold of. I woul let someone like that or KK Performance tune it, I know Kris knows his **** and will usually hook you up in a day or two once you schedule time with him depending on difficulty.

Not alot I can do when you bring me a pcm, a homebrew bench harness and a spare battery to hook to. That being said, Im glad its pretty much on point too.....Yeah im a little hard to reach, I have a full time job and a family.

BTW I'm not in the AF but I do live in cabot, I drive by the back gate of the base on the way to work every day though....lol

There are gonna be a few people out this weekend in WLR, could possibly have the meet moved to Furniture Row in NLR if you guys are interested in coming. We dont get bothered at FR by the local officers, most of them seem to know why we're there anyways (to get away from WLR RC (West Little Rock Ricer Club)).
