Nice times! Scott of TTP says he has gone thru a number of front o2 sensors because of running C16. What track did you do these times at? Were you tuned for the race gas when you got on the dyno? Or did you just dump a couple of gallons in their and got on the dyno?

Updated !!! times verified @ LACR

Yo fellaz, i went to LACR this past weekend and am still quite dissapointed. I didn't reach my target goal of 12.99, but i did launch better with consistent mid 1.7 60's still spinning the tires. I got about 10 runs which was well worth the $20 and my times throughout the day started from 13.7's on 91 oct and the 10th run with race gas @ 13.13 with some minor adjustments. I was adjusting my tune with positive results (car was still running extremely fat 10:2-10:9 with conservative timing peaking at 17-18* @ 21psi) until my laptop ran out of battery. The car was obviously liking a leaner mixture considering i picked up a 7mph difference between the original E-flash and my newly adjusted map. Here are a few of my times:

1st run

1.78 60'
8.70 1/8th
76.89 mph
13.68 1/4 ET
97.69 mph

6th run
1.76 60'
8.5 1/8th
78.70 mph
13.38 1/4 ET
98.70 mph

9th run
1.76 60'
8.42 1/8th
82.31 mph
13.21 1/4 ET
105.13 mph

final run
1.78 60'
8.37 1/8th
80.00 mph
13.13 1/4 ET
101.96 mph

The car liked the minor tweaks here and there, but next time im gonna fiddle with my cam gears. I have them currently set at +2,0 but im gonna try -4,-1.5 next time out. It sucks that I ran 13.1 @ 108 at fontana with my stock cams, i guess i gotta fine tune these bad boys a little bit more.

Your gonna pull timing? Also the car will of course will run faster with a lean tune but its a dangerous tune. Running a car lean will increase egt's and possibly cause you to detonate and have severe problems. I would, if I were you, rich out the mixture. Yeah, you may not be as fast but your car will last much longer.

No timing needs to be pulled at this moment since im getting 0-1 knock counts throughout the pull. What im talking about is re-adjusting the cam gears to a different setting like -4,-1.5 and trying that to see its end results. Running extremely lean is of course a problem, but running too fat can result in a decrease in power. My a/f ratios with the original tune started at 10.2 at the low end 10.5:1 up top. This rich mixture is definitley killing my spool up as well as my top end. My goals are to reach 11.2- 11.6 up top with good octane. I always tend to keep my egt's in check when running my car. Don't worry skilmatic, im not new to tuning A/F ratios and timing since i work at a dyno center(WestechPerformanceGroup.com). I have witnessed the results of both lean and rich mixtures when it comes to making power. Is EVOSCAN compatible with the LM-1 yet? If so im hoping it will be more reliable on logging A/F than the LM-1 itself.

^Ok just making sure. Just be careful. Also I heard from a friend of mine who is savoy with evoscan that it is compatible with the lm-1.

I fouled one bosch wideband sensor trying c16 for the first time. Only 3 gal and smoked the O2. Not the factory unit.

You're losing .2 on your 60' alone, but I'm sure as you know with practice that will come around. I'd say with a flash and a good 60' you should see a 7.9xx
