I shift at 7600, he shifts at 8k. When I shift he pulls a little farther, then when Im in gear and accelerating in 4th, he shifts.....poorly The first race we could have kept going past 130-135 or so where we let off, but my fuel pump is not keeping up so the car goes completely lean and falls on its face, so instead of blowing it up, I let off. It basically comes down to a drivers race it seems.

You are jealous of my lack of fueling

Your timing table isn't so much different than mine, but its not quite as aggressive, mostly up top. The 64* midrange timing helps you though..........

You should post the in car vids of you swearing at your car when it wouldnt let you into 3rd

5 gallons of 110, 1-2 gallons of 91 left in there, 14gph 50/50 meth mix. Could have probably crammed a little more into it, could have drained the tank and ran all the 91 out, but this wasnt for a glory pull, it was for real world situations where he wont get all the gas out before dumping in the race gas. If he has an extra gallon or so of 91 in the tank when he goes to the track or dyno or just wants to have fun with the 110 some time, there is enough safety cushion there. 25.5* up top as it sits. 12.6 or so AFR at 3.5k tapering 12.2 mid range to 12.0ish by redline. EGT's are right around 1440* F by 8k in 3rd.

Ya there was more left in the tune I'm sure but like Taylor said I'd rather have a slight cushion for real world driving. One day when I know HPT inside and out I'd feel more comfortable setting it to kill so I can make adjustments on the fly.

It's pretty fun. Especially when you go to meets with some older car guys and they walk up to talk to you and say "So this doesn't smell like a regular cobalt, what's goin on in there?" with a little smirk on their face lol.

I did. The car didn't like it actually. IAT's were through the roof and even with 24* up top I was getting knock.

LOL i bet! Taylor and I were smiling the entire time while tuning. Every time I would pull over that's all you could smell.

Considered and done

Your iat2s don't make any sense

My car on a tvs 2.6 and ati, completely stock cooling system and 7gph 100% meth saw max of 155*

Your temps are excessive on 14gph with 50/50
