apparently one of the moderators decided to take it upon himself to delete half of the thread to only show the 10's in one area and 8/9 in another area so I'm going to post the whole thing here so it's all together.
I just wanted to share some results from my recent trip to Houston to tune some cars. Big thanks to Tom for putting me up, shuttling me around, Anthony for shuttling us around to breakfast/lunch/dinner and Huy at ILR (Inline Racing) for letting use his shop as base camp, tools, food and drinks etc.. and especially my customers, you guys are the best and I can't wait to get back.
On some of these cars I did a baseline pull before I got started tuning to see if I was making an improvement or not over their previous setup/tune.

DLL 329/324 was 311/306 previously tuned by another shop

This one puzzled me, it didn't want to make the power it should. Usually I can get this much ore more on straight 93 octane, I figured it would do well into the 400's on meth. It was at 18psi and another tune when it came to me, at least we got some massive gains.

unfortunately Anthony aka Lanevo03 had a transmission failure that kept us from doing his tune, we're going to try again next time I'm there or do it remotely. Andy stepped up in his place even though he had a slick tune by another tuner. He wanted to see if I could squeeze out more though.

Chase's EVO10 came to me with a downloaded free base tune designed for a lower octane IIRC.

Unfortunately David aka PwrEvo had something come up and couldn't make the trip to me, we'll do his either remote or local when I come back.
thanks again everyone for choosing Mellon Tuning!

Great #s, and no problem, I was happy to drive you guys around! Can't wait for you to get back to town, hopefully I can have the car up and running and with new mods to hit that 500 mark
