Get it tuned and then unplug the Commander. The bliss lost with the loss of ignorance can be regained with good tuning.

Hey...don't worry about the knock reading. If it goes above 80 it means a new engine, lol.

J/k. Mine goes to 184 or 190 after racing. I talked to my rotary tuner and he said the knock reading is worthless because of the location of the sensor.

FYI...here is what I do, normal daily driving I monitor the

water temp
intake temp
rev
boost

when I'm racing I use the same, but then I switch to view 8 panel so I can see the max injector duty and some of the other readings.

The most difficult thing for me was the boost issue, I was hitting the fuel cut alot. I finally figured out how to solve that. Are you going to Sac tomorrow for grudge night drags?

Lemme know what you dyno at. WATCH the boost gauge. Remember if you don't have a boost gauge, THEY do and will hook it up.

They are a really cool shop. They dynoed me and rynberg a while back.
