Car Down On Power Big Time
Like I said before this is my first shot at the tune with the new setup and I was being overall conservative. My previous tune with just the TBE and EBC I was seeing 6-7* but wanted to dial in the A/F load sites first and didn't know how the motor would like that much timing with the 20G. Even with 3* at 6K with the stock airbox is 3 seconds faster to 7500 then it was with the ebay intake which seemed to by my problem.

Did some logs today, with a more aggressive timing approach after peak torque. There is still some left in the car but most importantly the results were repeatable and consistent. Comments welcome
:
Why are you so cautious of running more timing? Your car is not going to blow up, don't worry. I am a big fan of retarded timing, but what you are doing is too much.
Edit: Please start your logs @ 2500 rpm. That will give you a better idea of what the car is doing.

. Plus there is some C16 still sloshing around in the tank and don't want to get ahead of myself when tuning the pump map. I would love to be able to make 2500RPM pulls but it is kinda busy traffic wise when I get the chance to get out. Thanks for the info, much appreciated Last edited by fid; Jul 29, 2007 at 02:44 PM.

OK guys back for some more.
I fixed quite a few problems that popped there head up at another appearance at the dragstrip. I had a HUGE boost leak at the comp outlet, the valve cover breather and a ripped vac line to the wga. I am suprised the car ran as well as it did before. Anyway, I whipped up a short ram intake for the car and ditched the stock air box. I think the car is running pretty good but have nothing good to compare it against since everything else I logged was with all the problems. DLL says I am up 25hp from the old logs. Anyone have a log that they can compare my accel times against yours? Here is a couple of logs and accel comps to take a look at and compare against. As always, your comments and suggestions are always appreciated

When are you going to take her back to the track?
I too ma learning from evo scan and am learning from your logs.
Looks like you have a few counts of knock that creeped up on you at the end there.
Good luck.

P.S. I believe you can still run higher timing than what you are running now. But doing it slow is a good idea.
