After trying another brand tuner I won't name(NOT BAMA) I have finally gone to the dark side with a Lund nGauge and flex fuel tune.
After some help from [MENTION=20080]Chris@Lethal[/MENTION] with some technical difficulties I got everything lined out before the last race of the season.
Initial impressions were awesome on 91, except for one small tweak to shift pressures that were a little harsh for the daily commute. Driveability was flawless, and with the 170° thermostat coolant temps were 190° at the head, and 180-185 on the nGauge ECT.
Then Saturday morning filled up with some E85 on the way to the track, but it appears that gas station has already switched to E70 for the winter as nGauge was only reading 65.9% alcohol.
Long story short the car is making beast improvement in power. So much so that I had an impossible time with tire spin at the track. Tried launching as soft as possible, even manually shifting 2nd gear at only 3,500 rpm. But no matter what I did I fought horrible tire spin through 3rd gear on the stock Pirellis.
Even with fighting wretched tire spin for the first 200 feet each run still got a best of .2 second, and 3 mph better than the stock tune has ever done.
12.81 @112 was the best I managed spinning horribly.
Put some DR's on the winter project list
