Someone you won't know. I hated that tune and it was shitty. I got a new tuner a few months ago

I find that hard to believe, like i said, this car is already faster then my teg, and ive already raced my buddys acura CL 3.0 which ran high 15's and had a car length on him by 60 without VVT. Hell on HPtuners someone ran a low 16 bone stock tuned for running 87 octane and 17* of ignition timing lol

I tuned one of these cars last night at the 1/4. The torque management makes a good difference. The owner for some reason has no interest in running 93 in it so i didnt have much room to play. I experimented with some cam adjustments and knocked off about a .5 second with that alone..... not much when the car was running 17.5s before... I was able to get 19* in the mid range and about 17* up top. set the shift point to 6700 and raised the pressure a bit. Gave it a good firm shift that felt safe. leaned out the cat overtemp slightly and richened the PE up quite a bit up top. In the end it was running 16 flat consistantly and could have been in the 15s with a driver mod. Was my first 2.4l vvt motor so wasnt sure how far you could push it

Ok believe it or not. There's only one guy on here that did a 14.9. A 2.4 is a 15s second car pretty much. You have to learn to live with it or just boost it.

no I never ran it all motor. Only been to the track once and it was when I had less mods than I do now. I was only able to run twice. my first was 15.2 and my second was 14.8. That was on a really conservative tune and less mods though lol. I got a horrible 60' and was feathering and didn't have great traction. Now with more mods and my tune a little more turned up im hoping for atleast a 13.7

yep. but I think he's doing something wrong....idk. I raced my friends tc and was with him from a 35 roll until he pulled away up top. this was with my car already running at 140 iat2 temps cuz I had done 7 back to back races. and he ran a 13.7 at the track on street tires

I can always count on you to bring the negativity(: lol

Either way I'll be happy getting out of 14s. Anything after that is just a bonus
