Bama tune installed. I have questions

[5ABI VT]

Just installed a Bama V2 race tune on my 2017 GT. Took it for a ride and really didn't notice much difference. It's hot and muggy outside. Did a 0-60 test and immediately shattered my best time by .2 seconds with a slight bog.
So I guess it is faster!!
Questions

Why is the rev limiter still kicking in at just before 7000 rpm?

Also I have a 170 deg thermostat and when I idle in the driveway the fans don't come on until I have reached like 215 degs cyl head temp. Shouldn't the fans come on sooner?

Thanks

ANy increase in power may not show in e.t. use the mph and compare the changes. There are so many factors that contribute to e.t that it can vary greatly from driver or from day to day... or tire temp, road surface, etc etc. just too many variables to give credit to a tune.

not too bad, you're in the 12s... was that your best run of the day or only one? what were your other runs like?

Made 3 passes. 13.04, 12.93 ,12.83 in that order. All between 111-112.
Wheel hop was brutal so I went home happy to run in the 12's.

That's pretty consistent actually, good job. sounds like you just need to work on your launch but the power seems to be there.
