good luck everyone, hope everything goes well for all.

 

Keep us posted on how everyone does

 

So far so good. No big issues.

 

...just got home...got lost in the rain for an hour..then I70 was blocked off towards orlando so we took I90 and ended up taking 6 hours..


I did slaughter a supercharged fox body on the way home though.

how did moosejaw's car do?

sooo tired..

 

so how'd it go, hope everyone got tuned.

 

It was a big success.... NO ONE BLEW UP....

It was a LLOOOONNNNGGGGG day. It started at 9 am and didn't finish to about 11pm.
The only car that wasn't completed was moosejaw due to several technical difficulties.

Other than that Steve is awesome when it comes to tuning. Everyone is happy and I would recommend him any time..

L8R

 

thats good news. what happend to moosejaw?

 

 

any videos taken of any runs?

 

Anyone care to post some numbers?

 

1) zammm 400
2) FD3S2005 500
3) lwnslw 500
4) NeoZ06 450
5) Hazel324 400
6) moosejaw NO Tune
7) papsmagu 600

 

 

ill post up my dyno sheet later, i gotta scan it. steve also said the dyno was about 10% lower than normal... i had a couple pulls of my car but i stopped because of technical issues with the car, my A/f was leaning out at about 6k, it ended up being my supra pump giving out.. lucky enough they had only 1 in stock and good thing this happen on the dyno under monitored conditions because i would of blown the motor..

Thank you steve so very much, its been a pain in the *** trying to get you down to florida, but man im glad it finally happened.

 

moosejaw sorry to hear you didnt get tuned, what happend?

 

For the tune......

I had done the following
Swapped Primaries (850cc vs 550cc)
Oil Change (Royal Purple 20w50)
Borrowed Joe's Plugs which were in good condition at the time.
Fabbed and heat wrapped a new 4" DP
Added Turblown LIM Heat Shield
Fuel Filter was added less than a year ago.

I should have done the following...
Replace Fuel Pump (Had a used Supra Pump)
Wiring Mod for the fuel pump
New Spark Plug Wires

But at least the car didn't blow up this time and i got to drive the car home instead of having it towed by a Kia.

I think the most important lesson learned here is
Dont buy a used fuel pump off of anyone. Buy new!!!!!

Now i have to wait till steve comes round again. But I will be prepared.

 

lets see what numbers steve got for the guys, and maybe we can start one for early next year. looking to see what kind of numbers I can get on mine

 

How familiar is Steve with microtech?

 

i've heard hes pretty good with it. he tunes using matrix which is very good.

 

I got 330 rwhp corrected, stock twins, large street port and a bunch of other things...

Driveability is MUCH IMPROVED, damn, feels so smooth now, this guy's name should be FD Kan, lol...

This thing pulls like crazy now, before this tune, i ran a 12.7 in the 1/4, let's see what it can do now...

I'm happy with the twins, when they get tired, i'll go with a GT35R setup...

=)

 

i made just about 380 at 17.5-18psi running seq, like moosejaw says if buying a fuel pump, buy one new... he prob had the same problem i had... moose were you having the same problem i was? leaning out because the pump was giving out?

 

I'm running 14 PSI on the stock twins...
