Today at 6:50pm the Da was +626 @ HRP. That's not great air, but it's no where near the heat of the Summer conditions. The humidity was 78% also.

Did you get the car tuned for the headers? That makes a difference. Alos if you can tell me which day you raced the first time I can get the DA for that also for a real comparison.

You need a tune for sure...your car should be trapping that much with just a lid and catback.

OK man I recalculated closer to when you actually ran today. Here's what I get and it's always very very close to my TAG weather station.

Today at 3:50pm

DA=849 with 73% humidity.



On Feb11th at 7:50pm

DA= -321 with 88% humidity.

I think for every 1000ft of DA there is about a 1/10 improvement so you should have been appx .12 slower today and that's not factoring in the tune being a good bit rich from the headers.

If you are running on the stock tune, you should see 2-3 tenths improvement IMO.

Good luck!!
