It’s gonna have to be after it warms up a little. I get zero traction in 3rd and 4th breaks loose with the slightest little dip in the road. I’ll have to datalog 4th gear, which is 80-130mph.
I want to get the car dialed in more before I go back to the dyno and fine tune it… save myself a few bucks.

Send a scout car out first and have them tell you if its clear or not. Works all the time.
From driving the northway 5 days a week or more I know where the cops hide.

Are you tuning yourself or paying someone? Usually tuning consists of pretty much a flat-rate price and dyno time.

I’d say it was a reasonable pounding. Don’t lie, you totally thought you were going to jail.

Tuning myself. I got a “safe” mailorder baseline tune that’s pretty solid, but I need to tweak the AFRs and bump up the timing a bit. It’s basically my stock tune rescaled to suit the increased airflow of the new turbo, and increased fuel from the injectors.

Maple Ave ext in amsterdam. about 1.5 miles long, straight, only one hump in the middle you might want to watch for at 130mph. No house, clear view end to end. Just make sure you don’t see headlight ahead or behind, and your the only one who knows what your doing there. then you can run 2 miles to my house and hide if need be. lol
